“Sorrow is how we learn to love. Your heart isn’t breaking. It hurts because it’s getting larger. The larger it gets, the more love it holds.”

You kind of sound like Angus from Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging! <3

The insane Scottish cat? I am not sure if I’m delighted or offended…

"I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I’ve become arrogant, but simply because I..."

“I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I’ve become arrogant, but simply because I reached a point in my life where I do not want to waste more time with what displeases me or hurts me. I have no patience for cynicism, excessive criticism and demands of any nature. I lost the will to please those who do not like me, to love those who do not love me and to smile at those who do not want to smile at me. I no longer spend a single minute on those who lie or want to manipulate. I decided not to coexist anymore with pretense, hypocrisy, dishonesty and cheap praise. I do not tolerate selective erudition nor academic arrogance. I do not adjust either to popular gossiping. I hate conflict and comparisons. I believe in a world of opposites and that’s why I avoid people with rigid and inflexible personalities. In friendship I dislike the lack of loyalty and betrayal. I do not get along with those who do not know how to give a compliment or a word of encouragement. Exaggerations bore me and I have difficulty accepting those who do not like animals. And on top of everything I have no patience for anyone who does not deserve my patience.”

- Meryl Streep (via notebookings)

Darling, you are the human epitome of stardust.

Someday I think I’ll be moving and magnificent and unforgettable, but I’m not there yet. Until then, wait for me.

In my grief I created a new languagefor the loss of you, and...




In my grief I created a new language
for the loss of you, 
and stood like a sacrifice
in open fields and hoped 
that God would hear
how much I wanted you back, 
that my mourning looked like 
burned trees still standing 
on breathing stumps
that this new language was terrible,
and ruining and full of hope 
and I’ve heard that 
baby love isn’t half as full 
as other kinds but they’re wrong.
There is a forest inside of me
and all of the trees are standing to attention 
for you
They’d all fall on your order, too,
give the word. 
Maybe you’re rain, 
or maybe you’re necessary 
but you decide. 
I’ll say in this language, that only 
God and whales can understand 
that if you come back, please come back,
you decide. 
If you want Mondays to be Saturdays now, 
if you want me to paint the sky black, 
if you need love like tap water,
you decide. 
I will say your name like a hymn, 
I will say your name like every ‘please’ I’ve ever meant, 
I will love you till birds grow in my throat, 
just come back, please, 
you decide.


Azra.T., Whale Song
