“How I love your moonstones, those jewels that fall on your breast like tears of light. Beneath the folds of your silver-gauze gown I divine the beauty of your naked body. Everything to which you have lent your enigmatic grace enchants me. I adore your mysteriously pale hair. I shall be whatever you make of me. For you are the marvellous Priestess of some faith I do not yet know.”

— Renée Vivien, A Woman Appeared To Me

one day you will wake up in the morning feeling calm and content in every corner of your body. you will spend the day doing things that remind you that your life is not perfect, but its little details make it wonderful all the same. you will visit places you’ve come to love, the little bakery, the library, the old bookstore, and the park, where you have picnics every weekend. you will paint often, read piles of new books, take candid photographs, bake your own bread, make your own strawberry jam, and write your own stories. your home will be cozy and welcoming, with plants, cushions, warm lighting and a fluffy cat that sleeps on your lap. there will be flowers and fruit trees in the garden, and a seat where you can read and watch the clouds, surrounded by sunlight and the sounds of nature. the things you once cried about are so far away in your memory that you barely think about them anymore. and you will sleep at night to ease the good kind of tiredness, the kind you feel on summer evenings after a day at the beach.

“My fear of being real, of being seen, paralyzes me into silence. I crave the touch and the connection, but I’m not always brave enough to open my hand and reach out. This is the great challenge: to be seen, accepted, and loved, I must first reveal, offer, and surrender.”

“Anyone who knows me, should learn to know me again; for I am like the Moon, you will see me with new face everyday.”

“She’s someone’s daughter, wife, sister, mother” is not an admirable quote to justify respecting women. You should respect her because she is a human-being not because of her relation to men.

"ben ki kendimi kış sanırdım; yeşillenen bir ağacım işte. ben ki kendimi demirden sanırdım; tenin alevine karşı alev aldım ve eriyip bittim bir yabancının gözleri uğruna; ay ışığından daha da gizemli olan.."

“ellerindeyim. senin, bir arp gibi, ellerindeyim. istediğin gibi çalabilirsin beni. huzurun sessiz müziği de olurum, tutkunun, coşkunun gürültüleri de çıkar benden. hepsi senin elinde.”

insan kendini açıklamak zorunda kalmadığı insanla gerçekten yakındır, "ben ondan bahsetmiyorum" ve "o benim aklımdan bile geçmedi" diye cümleler savaşı verdiği insanla değil.
