Always be like water. 

Floats in the times of pain

 or dance

like waves 

along the wind

 which touches its surface.

I will take the sun in my mouth

and leap into the ripe air

Alive

with closed eyes

to dash against the darkness 

 E. E. Cummings, Poems 1923-1954

Farfalle, by Emmanuelle Brisson




We are like butterflies who flutter for a day
and think it is
forever.

As if you were on fire from within.
The moon
lives
 in the lining of your skin.

You must have
chaos
within you
to give birth
to a dancing
star

Alice in wonderland by Stephanie Jager


If you are a dreamer come in
if you are a dreamer a wisher a liar
a hoper a pray-er a magic-bean buyer
if you are a pretender com sit by my fire
for we have some flax golden tales to spin
come in!
come in!

Shel Silverstein

All animals 

except man 

know 

that the ultimate of life 

is to enjoy it.

I love Herb Ritts!

Herb Ritts

Herb Ritts (1952-2002) was an american fashion photographer who concentrated on black and white photography and portraits in the style of classical greek sculpture. Some of his more famous photos are of female and male nudes. Today I choose this piece because I find it really emotional.
My life is changing and it's hard... I feel like I can't breathe. I feel like the man in the photo, in chains he can't move or make a sound.
It hurts.
But I'm positive: everything will be ok...
