Slow down. You're too important. Life teaches you how to live it, if you live long enough.

Amy Winehouse - What Is It About Men (Live At The North Sea Jazz Festival 2004)
“I'm nurturing, I just wanna do my thing And I'll take the wrong man as naturally as I sing And I'll save my tears for uncovering my fears For behavioural patters that stick over the years It's bricked up in my head, it's shoved under my bed And I question myself again: what is it 'bout men? My destructive side has grown a mile wide And I question myself again: what is it 'bout men?“

I’ve come to a point in my life where I can’t accept reality. We live in an appalling world full of countless grief, social injustice, poverty, and cruelty. And I can’t look at it anymore. So my new approach to life, to avoid getting angry and bitter and sad about the way the world is, is to get as weird as possible. To get as weird as I can comfortably make it and as far away from reality as I can without letting too much light in. As I understand why I need to do this in my life, I look at musicians, artists, and filmmakers who people refer to as mad eccentrics and off the wall, I get it now. This is how people deal with reality. This is why fantasy is so important in the world.

Age is relative. Experience is relative. And I think often intensity is confused with maturity.

The capacity to be alone is the capacity to love. It may look paradoxical to you, but it is not. It is an existential truth: only those people who are capable of being alone are capable of love, of sharing, of going into the deepest core of the other person—without possessing the other, without becoming dependent on the other, without reducing the other to a thing, and without becoming addicted to the other.

The Highlight from March 5th.
Written 2,500 years ago, and yet, it feels like it could’ve been written yesterday.
The questions and anxieties about our being are universal and timeless, and the fact that we continue to struggle to find meaning in the ordinary, speaks of its difficulty.
But reading these reflections helps, at least for the length of the book. Everything will make more sense. And then, you’ll go on and think about yourself.

You think it’s cool to hate things. And it’s not. It’s boring. Talk about what you love and keep quiet about what you don’t.
