R.I.P. Norm

[brightside00]

A person chooses his lunch, the color of his pants, and a friend who goes along with his thoughts.

But he is born forced to his pain.

He wakes up in the morning, washes his face, looks at himself in the mirror,

says goodbye to the last wrinkle of laughter,

and wears his sadness like a shoe,

without any right to choose.

For example, today I wish my sadness was blue, the size of a butterfly

But it was gray, the size of an elephant.

- Ahlam Al-Hamd

"O my confused feet, return to my door. The days are not my days, nor are my friends my friends!"

Stop being the one who always puts in the effort. Relax and let the ship sink.

There are paths you have to walk alone. No friends, no family, not even a partner, just you.

There are many good people. But the problem is that you did not meet these people when you should have met them.

― Dostoevsky .

"I admit that I am one of those people who, when they pass by places that hold memories, are overcome with nostalgia, and greet them and treat them with kindness as if they were a breathing person."

- Ahmed Khaled

"I am fond of lovers but I cannot love, I am too far away, am banished."

- Franz Kafka.

Life is good for those who don't care.. I wish my mind didn't care.

I haven't changed, I'm a solitary socialite, I mix with people of all kinds and then I run away from everyone in search of myself.

- Octavio Paz

"If you want to live a balanced life, get rid of those who find you when they need you, and don't find you when you need them."

From Kafka to Milena: "I should have found you long ago, at a different time, in a different place, before we perish, before experiences sweep us away, before they rob us and we become afraid and hesitant in our steps, exhausted and without the energy to carry ourselves, despairing of everything, even of love..

_Franz Kafka

One day you will have to give up some of your dreams, in order to live your reality.

- Gibran Khalil Gibran

"Many faces, many stories, all hiding the quiet struggle within."

[brightside00]

“There is a voice inside you, whether you believe it or not, whether you use it or ignore its guidance, the voice is still there, waiting for you to stop for a moment to hear it, to guide you, encourage you, and love you.

Connecting to this voice is easy. It is not trying to hide from you. It is seeking you. It knows the words that await you both, it knows what you need and longs to tell you. It is in your heart, mind, and soul. The voice is waiting for you to pick up your pen and break through the thin wall of consciousness that keeps you separate.

Writing focuses your attention clearly on the inner wisdom that enables you to feel loved and connected.

Once you open that door in your soul, you cannot close it again. You cannot pretend that you do not know where the door is or how easy it is to walk through it. Once you begin to engage in a rich and deep connection with something higher, bigger, deeper, and wiser than yourself, you find yourself thinking thoughts you have never thought before, remembering things you have never thought of before, and asking new questions.

Once you open to divine guidance, you receive guidance, you ask for more, you receive more: more ideas, from Guidance, inspiration, wisdom, opportunities, challenges, questions and answers."

From Albert Camus's letters to Maria Casares

Depressed, and nothing in my head but you.

Sometimes we say that we choose this or that being. But I did not choose you. You entered by chance a life that I was not proud of, but since that day something began to change slowly, in spite of me, and in spite of you too, and you were far away. Then the transition to another life. What I have said, written or crystallized since the spring of 1944 has always been profoundly different from what had happened before, for me and for myself, I have breathed better and hated things less, then I have been amazed by the freedom of what deserves to exist before you, and without you, I am committed to nothing.

We will not always be strong, and we will not always be above our pain, no matter how much we think we are capable of it, but in the moments when we feel miserable, there will be only love to save us.
