i know your future will bloom to something much bigger and magnificent. — kim namjoon

remember: you are the leader of your own life, chant it over and over again "i can do it. you got it. i can do it well. i can do it better than anybody." — jung hoseok

one small person can dream the biggest dream, paint the largest picture, and make endless possibilities come true. when we meet again, i look forward to seeing your dream, your picture, and your endless possibilities out in this world. — min yoongi

i hope you will never give up. remember there is a person here in korea, in the city of seoul, who understands you. — park jimin

if there is anyone out there who cannot see where they should go from here forth, i urge you to listen to your heart. things may feel a little difficult right now, but somewhere out there, luck and opportunity is waiting for you. i believe that. — kim taehyung

even today i continue to learn new things, so here i stand today with my members, with faith in myself, my members and the world and i hope you also will do the same for yourself and move forward. — jeon jungkook

if any of you feels lost in the face of doubt or uncertainty, or the pressure of starting anew, don't rush. take a deep breath. you may find that any moment can be turned into an opportunity. allow yourself to take it easy. take it one step at a time. — kim seokjin

bts is comfort.

[stripesmin]

bts once again stand for the message of self-love in a way that says: care about yourself first and foremost. dont be scared to dream and dream big. when you fail, when you fall, pick yourself up, tell yourself “just again this once” and do this every time you find yourself at rockbottom. they’re saying listen to your heart, find what you love, find your joy, and follow the things that make you happy. find your own path, be open to the future and what might await you, dont get discouraged by what other people can do and what you cant - learn, grow, find your own voice. they say: you are strong and you can become even stronger. you will find your own way. follow your heart.

Potent minimalist art sends a strong message about police and vigilante brutality in America

Journalist and artist Shirin Barghi has created a gripping, thought-provoking series of graphics that not only examines racial prejudice in today’s America, but also captures the sense of humanity that often gets lost in news coverage. Titled “Last Words,” the graphics illustrate the last recorded words by Brown and other young black people — Trayvon Martin, Oscar Grant and others — who have been killed by police and vigilantes in recent years.

Let us not forget their voices

[stripesmin]

Find meaning. Distinguish melancholy from sadness. Go out for a walk. It doesn't have to be a romantic walk in the park, spring at its most spectacular moment, flowers and smells and outstanding poetical imagery smoothly transferring you into another world. It doesn't have to be a walk during which you'll have multiple life epiphanies and discover meanings no other brain ever managed to encounter. Do not be afraid of spending quality time by yourself. Find meaning or don't find meaning but "steal" some time and give it freely and exclusively to your own self. Opt for privacy and solitude. That doesn't make you antisocial or cause you to reject the rest of the world. But you need to breathe. And you need to be.

— Albert Camus, from Notebooks, 1951-1959

I don’t.. I don’t understand... is it normal to suck at another person’s ear? do you guys suck the ears of the person very close to you??

Bringing this back, because this is the clearest clip, I’ve ever seen.

You can clearly see JM’s ear pop out of JK’s mouth. I’m just saying!

i really think celebrity worship is so ugly like oiwjsdknfgedf i’m sorry i know it’s being spoon fed to us at every angle and its impossible to avoid it but like. chill. like obviously there is a difference between consuming media for pleasure in your free time and being obsessed with rich people who’ll never know you exist to the point where you’re writing a thesis about them on twitter. use your brain cells for other things queens
