When earth feels like a deep black hole make a list of everything you love. Close your eyes and just think about that list.
Unfortunately there are only two things on that list...
“I’d like to die in your arms – perhaps that’s my great wish – it always was.”
— Alfred Stieglitz, from a letter to Georgia O’Keeffe written c. June 1929
A thousand thousand gleaming fires Seemed kindling in the air; A thousand thousand silvery lyres Resounded far and near:
Methought, the very breath I breathed Was full of sparks divine, And all my heather-couch was wreathed By that celestial shine!
And, while the wide earth echoing rung To their strange minstrelsy, The little glittering spirits sung, Or seemed to sing, to me.
“O mortal! mortal! let them die; Let time and tears destroy, That we may overflow the sky With universal joy!
Let grief distract the sufferer’s breast, And night obscure his way; They hasten him to endless rest, And everlasting day.
To thee the world is like a tomb, A desert’s naked shore; To us, in unimagined bloom, It brightens more and more!
And could we lift the veil, and give One brief glimpse to thine eye, Thou wouldst rejoice for those that live, Because they live to die.
The music ceased; the noonday dream, Like dream of night, withdrew; But Fancy, still, will sometimes deem Her fond creation true.
Emily Jane Brontë
“i am finding my way back to myself again. slowly, patiently, intricately. i am finding roads in between my heart and my mind that connect. i am finding melodies that taste good on my soul. i stray and i take detours occasionally, but i am finding my way back to myself again.”
