Dr. Dakota Black: You know, my girlfriend had a theory. She said at some point in your life, you find a use for every useless talent you ever had. It’s like connecting the dots.
Cherry Darling: I’m not that optimistic. I feel like I’m sinking down a drain and I can’t get out.
Dr. Dakota Black: She’d say, “When you’re stuck in that spiral, you reach...

Life boils down to a series of choices. Before long, the choices you make, and the ones you don’t, become you. But… which you? Worse? Better? Someone you can’t even recognize? It can make you question everything. Whether you’re strong enough, good enough. All choices lead you somewhere. Bold choices take you where you’re supposed to be.

Funny how the most lasting life lessons are the ones we learned as kids.
Simba: I know what I have to do. But going back will mean facing my past. I’ve been running from it for so long.
[Rafiki hits Simba in the head with his stick]
Simba: Ow! Jeez, what was that for?
Rafiki: It doesn’t matter! It’s in the past.
Simba: Yeah, but it still hurts.
Rafiki: Oh yes, the past...

I might be too strung out on compliments, overdosed on confidence
Started not to give a fuck and stopped fearin’ the consequence
Drinkin’ every night because we drink to my accomplishments
Faded way too long, I’m floatin’ in and out of consciousness
And they sayin’ I’m back, I agree with that
I just take my time with all this shit, I still believe in that
I had someone tell me I fell off, ooh I...

A way of life that focuses on finding beauty within the imperfections of life and accepting peacefully the natural cycle of growth and decay. It is a beauty of things impermanent and incomplete, of things unconventional.

Holy fuckballs I love this show!
Celia (aka the coolest bitch ever): Everyone thinks I’ve lost my mind. Shane (aka the cutest little rebel): Everyone thinks I’m weird. Celia: Well, I can see how you might give that impression. Shane: I really don’t care what they think. Celia: Good for you. Let your freak flag fly. Shane: Really? Celia: Really. I’ve recently stopped...

So I’m a cheap-o and I’m reading every free book possible on my NookColor. I won’t even purchase a $0.99 book until I’ve read all the good free ones. Which means I’m limited to non-Disney children’s fantasy books, soft-core erotica (haha), gross “follow your heart” motivational books, and luckily for me, timeless classics that have been overlooked...

This card stands for worldly success, and it is a good card to see when there is some amount of wonder as to how the latest project will develop. Stability can be a good thing, but when it becomes stagnation, something is wrong. Whenever fear of succeeding again in the future takes hold, it’s wise to reconnect with the self and the talents within.

When I was a young man, I wanted to change the world. I found it was difficult to change the world, So I tried to change my nation. When I found I couldn’t change my nation, I began to focus on my town. I couldn’t change my town and as an older man, I tried to change my family. Now, as an old man, I see the only thing I can change is myself. Suddenly I realize that if long ago I had changed...

Little boxes on the hillside, Little boxes made of ticky tacky, Little boxes on the hillside, Little boxes all the same.
Theres a pink one & a green one, And a blue one & a yellow one, And they are all made out of ticky tacky, And they all look just the same. And the people in the houses All went to the university Where they were put in boxes And they came out all the same.

Being fractured is what allows us to bleed light.
From the moment we are born, the world tends to have a container already built for us to fit inside: a social security number, a gender, a race, a profession or an IQ. I ponder if we are more defined by the container we are in than what we are inside. Would we recognize ourselves if we could expand beyond our bodies?

Everybody gets one chance to do something great. Most people never take the chance, either because they’re too scared, or they don’t recognize it when it spits on their shoes… Remember kid, there’s heroes and there’s legends. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die.
