I’ve got quite a vivid imagination and I’m easily overwhelmed by sensations and things that are beautiful or scary. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a ghost - I think I’m probably haunted by my own ghosts than real ones.

Thank you for loving me when I still tasted of heartache and war.

Fall in love with someone who tastes like adventure but looks like the calm, beautiful morning after a terrible storm.

Get some cheap dishes and break them when you get upset.

Learn how to say “NO” and don’t feel guilty about it

Buy something frivolous for yourself once in awhile, like a new hat.

Never again do anything you don’t want to do.

that’s damn good advice

His soul swooned slowly as he heard the snow falling faintly through the universe and faintly falling, like the descent of their last end, upon all the living and the dead.

I have a request, could you maybe make a post explaining the "Stolpersteine" that are in many places in Germany by now? They are my favourite thing about Germany dealing with its history and I want people to know about them because it is something I always pay attention to whenever I see them :)

A Stolperstein (literally “stumbling stone”) is a type of monument created by artist Gunter Demnig in 1992 to commemorate victims of Nazi oppression, including the Holocaust. Stolpersteine are small, cobblestone-sized memorials for individual victims of Nazism. They commemorate individuals who were consigned by the Nazis to prisons, euthanasia facilities, sterilization clinics, concentration camps, andextermination camps, as well as those who responded to persecution by emigrating or committing suicide.

While the vast majority of Stolpersteine commemorate Jewish victims of the Holocaust, others have been placed for Sinti and Romani people, homosexuals, Jehovah’s Witnesses, black people, Christians (both Protestants and Catholics) opposed to the Nazis, members of the Communist Party and the anti-Nazi Resistance, military deserters, and the physically and mentally disabled.

The list of places that have Stolpersteine now extends to several countries and hundreds of cities and towns. As of 20 August 2014, over 48,000 Stolpersteine have been laid in 18 countries in Europe, making the project the world’s largest.

They’re placed in front of the last residence or workplace of the victims. “Hier wohnte” means “here lived,” and the idea was to not only remember the victims but to–sadly only in a symbolic way–return to them their old homes and neighborhoods, and to have a memorial that is very present in modern people’s daily lives.
