“If you shut your eyes and are a lucky one, you may see at times a shapeless pool of lovely pale colours suspended in the darkness; then if you squeeze your eyes tighter, the pool begins to take shape, and the colours become so vivid that with another squeeze they must go on fire. But just before they go on fire you see the lagoon. This is the nearest you ever get to it on the mainland, just one heavenly moment; if there could be two moments you might see the surf and hear the mermaids singing.”
— J. M. Barrie, Peter Pan
“It will always be there, sitting between you and the incredible life that is waiting on the other side. So I guess it’s up to you when you want to deal with it, how many years you think is enough of a sacrifice, how much life you are willing to lose.”

“If your relationship to the present moment is not right - nothing can ever be right in the future - because when the future comes - it’s the present moment.”
—Eckhart Tolle
“Nothing can cure the soul but the senses, just as nothing can cure the senses but the soul.”
—The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
“I don’t control the past, present, or future. I just live one day at a time. Enjoying everyday, enjoying the sunrise and the sunset. Enjoying the flowers blooming and birds singing, enjoying the moments that make me smile and the moments that make me upset. But I know that tomorrow is a new day and anything can happen. I try to enjoy the little things in life and try not to dwell on the moments in the past, yes sometimes I think about it them but I let them be memories events in my life that have shaped me into the person that I am today.”
—Profound Mercenary
“The thing about pain…it demands to be felt.”
— John Green,The Fault in Our Stars
