I'm attracted to passion. Passion is beautiful, addicting, emotional, powerful, creative, genuine, intimate, inspiring, moving, honest, and real. It keeps you up at night and wakes you up early in the morning. There is nothing like feeling or seeing true passion. Find it, explore it, learn from it, appreciate it, and most of all, share it. Passion is love and love is passion. Both come from the heart. Always follow the GoodVibes."

GoodVibes

Basically my life’s philosophy in one eloquent statement.

I can only speak from my own story. I work to be as sincere as possible, to be honest, to never lie to myself or the audience, and not to do something for approval or acceptance and popularity. Stay true to yourself and work for a greater cause, a cause that’s much bigger than just personal acclaim. Bring and build added value to our own lives and to the lives of everyone who’s taken the time and money for your offering. - Mos Def

Hope Hurts

My birthday wish when I blew out my candles this morning was that things would work out in whatever way they were meant to with the boyfriend. He completely forgot my birthday. Apparently these things work in ways beyond my imagination.

If you’re really listening, if you’re awake to the poignant beauty of the world, your heart breaks regularly. In fact, your heart is made to break; its purpose is to burst open again and again so that it can hold evermore wonders.

You have to accept that some people are not made for deep conversations, or for holding you together when you’re about to fall apart, or for keeping you from unzipping your skin, or for talking you out of suicide, or to love you through the worst moments of your life. Some people are made for shallow exchanges, and ridiculous banter, and nothing more. And that’s okay. That doesn’t make them horrible people because they simply aren’t able to handle a storm like you. It doesn’t make you a bad person because you won’t divulge all the gritty details of your horror show. It makes you smart. You have to accept that there will be people that cannot give you what you need. It doesn’t mean they are not worth keeping in your life. You just have to figure out who these ones are before you’re disappointed. And you have to keep them at arm’s length. You cannot expect everyone in your life to understand, to be nonjudgmental, to get it. But that’s okay, because not everyone was made to impart wisdom, or wax-poetic, or speak on politics and the depravity of society, or discuss how crucial it is that the stigma of mental illness be abolished. There are times when you have to get away from all that heaviness. You have to. And you will need superficial conversation about Kim Kardashian’s arse, or a debate on the colour of The Dress. You will need those ones. So don’t go round cutting people off and dropping your friends. You need people for all your seasons. You need people or you won’t survive this.

End of an era! :'(

Last time Mike Chang.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Marianne Williamson

A timely reminder of this crucial sentiment.

Here's to a year of not settling.

You dangle my heart off your lips like a cigarette you whisper ‘have me’ and I become lit.

Life's Little Boosts

I was walking across campus today and a student randomly stopped me and said, "I just have to say, whenever I see you, you look really pretty every time." Aww thank you stranger for the boost of confidence! :)
