Autumn For Two 🍂

“Feelings come and feelings go. There is no need to fear them and no need to crave them. Be open to your feelings and experience them while they are here. Then be open to the feelings that will come next. Your feelings are a part of your experience. Yet no mere feeling, however intense it may seem, is your permanent reality.”

— Ralph Marston

“Nothing, in fact, is as universal or as ancient as the iniquitous and absurd; truth and justice, on the contrary, are the least universal, the youngest features in the development of human society.”

— Mikhail Bakunin, God and the State

“We are human in good part because of the way we affiliate with other organisms. They are the matrix in which the human mind originated and is permanently rooted, and they offer the challenge and freedom innately sought. To the extent that each person can feel like a naturalist, the old excitement of the untrammeled world will be regained.”

—E.O. Wilson

The love that beats in my heart so softly but so magnificently sings your name and its melody soothes my soul. Hear me sing and fill the wind, with sighs so full of your name, like the music in the sunset calling the birds home. Do not forget the love in my heart. It calls you trembling, shining so bright in the dark, a gift, a blessing. Come and let nothing burden our souls, that our dreams shine again so bright we place them in the sky so they become stars. Let the sky be our abode, be day or night, may you always look up and think of me.

Love humiliates you.

"Sweetheart, love is humiliating. Hasn't anyone ever told you that?"

"Who would have told me that?"

"Do you know the word humiliate comes from the Latin root humus, which means 'earth'? That's how love is supposed to feel."

love is so embarrassing. also the only thing that matters
