It's strange how suffering leads to seeing beauty where it wasn't once beheld.

I like to think that it's because when we are deprived of beauty and love, we gain a deeper appreciation for it, and thus, things we previously took for granted suddenly seem precious and valuable.

I'm the best for a reason.
I found the comfort hidden in the fear.
Life is cruel, but death is equal. And I'm ripe for the reaper, whenever they're ready.
I am the arrow that is drawn, but never loosened, and quite frankly, I'm tired of the tension with no release.
Kiss me, or kill me; either way, I get my sweet satisfaction.
Life could be viewed as very much like jazz, for the note played after the wrong note is what can make a difference for the better.
The space between the stars is just as important as the stars themselves, lest we have nothing but one big mess; the way I see it, I'd rather have confusion than a clusterfuck.
I do not fear nothing anymore, for without it we would not have a proper understanding of everything. And if everything truly came from nothing, that means that nothing must be something; what that something is, I do not know... but that's okay, because knowing what the present is gonna be before it arrives would just ruin the surprise of it.
Letting go of all that I am meant to not hold onto; if it is meant for me, it will come back, and I will treasure it.

I was wrong about this one. Natural AND Normal.
If you cannot tolerate my "do no harm" lifestyle, I do not have to tolerate that, cause I "take no shit" either.
My entire existence thus far, I have been naught but a hall of broken mirrors; reflections reflecting reflections. Now I am that of a single looking glass, and I cast my beautiful image upon the world as boldly as I can. For if I hate myself, I will only be dividing myself against myself, but if I can truly love who I am, my love for others will only multiply internally in-turn. I will give It all I got, so that others can get what I have to give Them.

Very beautiful :)

I had not realised it until now. My pursuit of enlightenment was not actually based in the concept of absolute truth, but in the idea of validating my own answers. If I had known what I was doing, I would not have done it to begin with, but I suppose mistakes are necessary in the learning curve of all this. We fall to rise.
Truth can be found in asking questions externally, not in just validation of your own answers internally. Communication will be the key to your freedom leading towards connection.

Someone once asked me why I write all this stuff without asking for any money to read it; I simply believe that freeing words should be free. I do the best I can to provide freedom to those that partake in my writings.
My comfort zone became so uncomfortable at one point that I could not stand to even be in my own home anymore, I ran away and somehow managed to forget where I lived for awhile until I was meant to remember.
Striving for perfection is like attempting to pierce the heavens. Rather than stabbing the sky to no avail, one should instead try reaching for it. This is the true nature of change, and requires growth, so be evergrowing in that regard.
To me, life has too much vitality for there not to be something else even in the end. If everything truly came from nothing, then that means that nothing must be something; what that "something" is, I do not know. I have simply been referring to this source as "Nobody". One thing I understand about this "Nobody", is that the space between the stars is just as important as the stars themselves. A painting also cannot be started without a painter, so death is quite likely not just finality, but totality as well. The philosophy I walk with is that whether I am an accident or not, I will be happy about it, because I have the freedom to carry my own p̶u̶r̶s̶e̶ purpose.
It is said that the tongue is mightier than the sword, for it has the power to sling one-thousand swords, but it also has the power to holster them, so if you don't have anything loving to say, then stay your mouth for everyone's own good.
There are two types of "Now" in this life; the Now of "I want to go home already!" and the Now of "I am already home."
Anybody who has never been through any form of internal struggle or external suffering is somebody I cannot ever take seriously, cause they genuinely have nothing of substance to say in my eyes.
