There is no duty in life
except the duty of being happy.
It is our only reason for being in this world.
With all our duties,
all our morals,
all our commandments,
we seldom make one another happy,
because these do not make us happy.
A person who is good
can only be so when he is happy,
when there is harmony within him,
in other words,
when he loves.
This has been the rule,
the only rule, of this world -
thus taught Jesus;
thus taught Buddha;
thus taught Hegel.
For each of us
the only thing of importance in this world
is his own inner self -
his soul,
his capacity for love.
When this is working,
we may be eating plain porridge or cake,
we may be wearing rags or jewels -
but the world will be resounding
in the clear tones of the soul.
It will be a good world,
a world going on in proper order.

-Herman Hesse-

my love for you is like whoa

Have you ever lived in one place at one time in your life that can bring the best out of you? I have before, I want to be back.




New York's heart is breathing.

chan marshall, I was just speaking of you.

Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it’s cracked up to be. That’s why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is… if you don’t risk everything, you risk even more.
