Only you can control the directionality of the energy you put out in this life. Your thoughts become your unconscious and conscious actions. Self awareness of the energy you exude is essential in achieving a higher state of mind.

Masquerading your need to be wanted as love is toxic. A desire for happiness, regardless the cost, can turn anyone into a fool.

The greatest disservice is to deny yourself from becoming who you truly are.

Take your time to mourn, but never stop struggling and never stop fighting.

One day.

Monotony or Surprise?

[write-to-xpress]

Shrouded by tapestry meant to adorn

on this night of in-finite whimsy,

memories paint abandoned shores as if to mourn a man left forlorn

This must be discord.

[onlinecounsellingcollege]

We are torn between nostalgia for the familiar and an urge for the foreign and strange. As often as not, we are homesick most for the places we have never known.

Carson McCullers (via onlinecounsellingcollege)

Haven’t felt like myself for quite some time, 

but after enduring melancholy tides,

life surely does seem sublime.

[wnq-writers]

Get into yourself. I mean it, dive into yourself. Lose yourself, in yourself. Immerse your entire being into yourself. That’s the only way.

TO SAVE A LIFE

[write-to-xpress]

Seasons shifting

It’s been quite some time.

Through the cultivation of lackadaisical daisies 

it seems my voice has become quite mute

buried under the dirt of a beautifully burdensome tender.

Once upon a mornings light,

among this barren field,

happiness had taken root alongside trees of tumultuous turmoil;

and in this brief expanse 

the cacophony beget a symphony

a hidden treasure without which has left me lacking in structure &

fortitude.

So if I may ask, what happens to a soul left astray,

the garden that had once been nurtured

flourishing in Ichor 

only to decay.

What I seek is ease of breath,

for what was once liberating has digressed to labor; 

but these vibrations shall not prevail

and what once was shall be again,

cultivated anew.

One day, I hope to be enough.

I’m a paradox. I want to be happy, but I think of things that make me sad. I’m lazy, yet I’m ambitious. I don’t like myself, but I also love who I am. I say I don’t care, but I really do. I crave attention, but reject it when it comes my way. I’m a conflicted contradiction. If I can’t figure myself out, there’s no way anyone else has.

I think that the human population has come to socialize relationships into craving the notion that fights are necessary because they metaphorically "clear the air." It is so expected that couples will fight that eventually to follow the herd, someone in the relationship will feel the need to fulfill the social norm even when the problem is not present. Though given that the problem is present, it is socialized that only a fight can possibly lead to any type of compromise in the situation; but it is my belief that people have lost the ability to properly communicate with each other. Everyone is so hell bent on fitting the norm due to social media propagating socialization. It's so unfortunate and I loathe the fact that it plagues people's minds--one day I hope that people will be able to have real honest conversations without ever having to resort to fighting. Just remember, be considerate of what's going on in both of each others lives, don't take your frustrations out on each other, instead help each other through them, and if something is on your mind always tell your partner because you can be sure that they are worrying about you--with or without good reason--because you can't define how they should feel, they are helpless to their concerns for their beloved. Why breed wars where you've both left your hearts vulnerable; no one is bulletproof.

love this

I think that normally I am cold and calculating. I am able to gather all my intelligence and utilize it in any situation I see fit by merely drawing upon my prior knowledge or experiences. I analyze everything even to the point of overt introspection. I am very critical of myself and to be quite honest I don't think I believe that I am a good human being either. But I only think like this when my mind is idle, it becomes the devils workshop. Though the one thing that I feel saves me from my self-damnation is my ability to love and how passionate I can be. Normally I am able to manipulate without an overbearing conscience and that is what later leaves me feeling like a soul with bad karma. But I see the world for what it is and I am extremely blunt about things while also extremely empathetic to people. I sometimes feel like a walking contradiction. But what currently baffles me: how the hell was I able to conjure up enough good karma to get a girl like Camille, my wonderful girlfriend or even to get all the great friends I have. In life too many things are taken for granted but in this moment just know that I appreciate life, and all that it has given me, and I just hope that I will not waste it.
