quote
“Love is always a risk in all its forms and depths. Love is confronting uncertainty and the possibility of rejection and affection’s demise. Love is laughing at the precariousness and taking the plunge anyway. Love can be painful. Love anyway. Death is certain. Live anyway. Swim in the immersive uncertainty and decide to be vibrant and happy with each moment gifted to us.”

quote
“The sightless universe insentiently welcomes all lives, but not all who live have the courage to confront the reality of the infinite universe. Of those who dare to contemplate the vastness of infinity, some will turn their backs in horror, some will try, fruitlessly, to rage against the reality of the truth. The wisest amongst us see the supreme value, even if clothed in absurdity compared to timeless eternity, of our own brief life. They wake up to the reality of the supreme value of our life, our time here.”

quote
“The real tragedy of war is the loss of potential. For each life lost a hole will travel through time, an empty spot where he or she would have walked and lived, that will press itself against loved ones like a cold wind. Sometimes at a celebration they will feel like they have forgotten something, perhaps misplaced an object. That is the hole of death.”

“A glimmer of hope, even a small one lingering tantalizingly far in the future, can help you face the trials in between.”

“The significance of each change of season is easily buried in the smallest of life’s mundanities and trivialities. Yet, the true consequence of time’s passage is there, blaring within the subtle disguise of a whisper for all who would listen.”
― Far Forest Scrolls Na Cearcaill

“A man’s perspective is limited by the brevity of his existence.
Even living deliberately, how far up can we reach?
Standing on our miniscule patch of time, how far into the future can we see? How much of the past can one truly understand?
Yet, only a recreant spends their precious drops of sand before dropping back
into the abyss lounging in indulgence, not striving for understanding, knowledge,
answers that those of us
scourged/consecrated with consciousness
should seek with unconquerable passion.”
