“People don’t realize how much they are in the grip of ideas. We live among ideas much more than we live in nature.”
—Saul Bellow in “Herzog” (via jamesnord)
It’s almost Blue Banner time again…
“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.”
—The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Thanks Dad
For taking off the rest of the army sticker that was on the back window of my car. It meant a lot.
When I say I quit, I’m trying to be more decisive about who I let into my heart again.
The only problem is as soon as I say it, I am already hoping they will give me a reason to keep trying.
Useless.
Sometimes I think the best remedy for anything that makes me cry when I’m at home is just going for a walk with my dog. I miss him when I’m away at school.
“I pray that something picks me up and sets me down in your warm arms.”
