"Beautiful Losers", Leonard Cohen

The act of creation is an attempt to enter a mysterious realm. A longing to transcend. What we create allows us to share glimpses of an inner landscape, one that is beyond our understanding. Art is our portal to the unseen world.

i think i have arrived at a point in my life where i am finally acknowledging that i have to unlearn this type of thinking for the sake of my own sanity.

do not let anybody convince you that the world was built for two. do not ever ever buy into the idea that once you’re married or once you’re in a committed and long term relationship with somebody, that’s all you need to get by in life. do not let anyone convince you that you’re supposed to go at it alone either. do not let anybody make you believe that you’re better off alone. it’s no way to live. the world was built for communities full of love and compassion and the desire to extend oneself for the wellbeing of another. it is in your best interest and humanity’s best interest to learn how to be in communities again. do not let them take away from you what makes life transcendental and special.

dont take bird noises for granted

i have nothing to say anymore and yet i feel the need to type because i feel like i'm going to vomit my heart out if i don't. i don't want to think about it. i don't want to be haunted by memories. i'm tired. i'm so fucking tired. i can't wait until my scar issue is so thick that i can't feel a single thing.

The sexiest thing a woman can do is move on. Whether it’s from their partner, career, family, etc. Society has programmed women into believing there’s a moral reward for enduring and staying. Fuck that. Get a new partner, new career, move to another state/country, please just MOVE ON.
