❝As we become purer channels for God’s light, we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is, but toward creating the world that could be.❞
– Marianne Williamson

Superiority complexes, big egos, materialistic attitudes, blatant ignorance, disdain for others. I just don’t have the patience to tolerate much of this. I mean… what really gets to me the most out of human nature is how people can be so blatantly ignorant that there are other people who inhabit this planet and there is no reason to think or feel superior to any of them. It can be anything, actually. Nothing bothers or concerns me more than an out of control ego the size of Texas. I just want to know wherever the idea that it’s possible to be “better” than any other human being and yet being totally unapologetic about it even comes from.

❝Compassion hurts. When you feel connected to everything, you also feel responsible for everything. And you cannot turn away. Your destiny is bound with the destinies of others. You must either learn to carry the Universe or be crushed by it. You must grow strong enough to love the world, yet empty enough to sit down at the same table with its worst horrors.❞
– Andrew Boyd (via revolutionofconsciousness)
❝Some of you out there right now, are wondering how you carry on. Take it from me, you just somehow learn to fight on.❞
– John Mayer (via cemawe)

I’m tired of being easily replaced. I’m tired of being forgotten. I’m tired of realizing that I am not significant to anyone who has ever made the mistake of making me feel like I was. I’m tired of being led to think I’m someone worth time or plans or friends or something and realizing I’m an idiot for thinking I deserve anything like that. I’m tired of being a failure, disappointment, buzzkill, all of that. I’m tired of expectations; never ending expectations I kno w I’ll never meet. I’m tired of waking up in the middle of the night, wondering what the hell is going on and why I’d rather not have to wake up and repeat the process all over again. I’m tired of constantly wanting to make the discomfort subside and cave into hurting myself but living up to more expectations and resisting those impulses. I’m just so tired. One of two things becomes inevitable: either I give up or I cheer up. One is far too permanent and the other is far too exhausting and none of this is acceptable to be spoken of. Out loud. Projected. Must not project. Must not become real.
