People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates.
Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.
There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.
Man's main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality.

I think this sequence of
quotes best explains what currently occupies my thoughts as applied to every
aspect of my life.
+ The
most important of life's battles is the one we fight daily in the silent
chambers of the soul.
– David O. McKay
+ We
mustn't let our passions destroy our dreams.
– Unknown
+ The
journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
– Lao Tzu
+ Aim
for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then
you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life.
Remember that fear always lurks behind perfectionism. Confronting your fears
and allowing yourself the right to be human can, paradoxically, make yourself a
happier and more productive person.
– Dr. David M. Burns
+ I
think perfectionism is based on the obsessive belief that if you run carefully
enough, hitting each stepping-stone just right, you won't have to die. The
truth is you will die anyway and that a lot of people who aren't even looking
at their feet are going to do a whole lot better than you, and have a lot more
fun while they're doing it.
– Anne

| To everything
(Turn, turn, turn)
There is a season
(Turn, turn, turn)
And a time to every purpose
Under Heaven
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep
To everything
(Turn, turn, turn)
There is a season
(Turn, turn, turn)
And a time to every purpose
Under Heaven
A time to build up, a time to break down
A time to dance, a time to mourn
A time to cast away stones, a time to gather stones together
To everything
(Turn, turn, turn)
There is a season
(Turn, turn, turn)
And a time to every purpose
Under Heaven
A time of war, a time of peace
A time to love, a time to hate
A time you may embrace, a time to refrain from embracing
To everything
(Turn, turn, turn)
There is a season
(Turn, turn, turn)
And a time to every purpose
Under Heaven
A time to gain, a time to lose
A time to rend, a time to sow
A time for love, a time for hate
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late. | | |
| Kiss me. It's beginning to snow.
To days of inspiration
Playing hookie, making something out of nothing
The need to express
To communicate,
To going against the grain,
Going insane
Going mad
To loving tension, no pension
To more than one dimension,
To starving for attention,
Hating convention, hating pretension
Not to mention of course,
Hating dear old mom and dad
To riding your bike,
Midday past the three- piece suits
To fruits to no absolutes
To Absolute- to choice
To the Village Voice
To any passing fad
To being an us-for once-, instead of a them -
La vie Boheme
I can't wait for school to start. | | |
| But I know the difference,
Between myself and my reflection.
I just can't help but to wonder,
Which of us do you love.
hope
Lookin’ above I see a patch o’ sunlight
Seepin’ through the darkness,
Peekin’ through the sky
Suddenly you appear right outta nowhere sayin’
Sunlight is gonna make me blind, well
I am not the same person every single day and
This is not really me who keeps turning away
If I could I would tell you everything
But I don’t have answers, and I
Don’t know if there are any to
Help us now to return somehow from the
Wreckage of this momentary war;
I wish I knew what we were fighting for
freedom, beauty, truth, and love | | |
| I hate not being able to help. I hate not having magic cures.
The worst feeling in the world is not being able to do anything when a friend is upset. | | |
