The sky grows dark

The black over blue

Yet the stars still dare

to shine for you

-Matt Haig (a quote from the book: The Midnight Library)

Life begins on the other side of despair -Jean Paul Sartre

One of the basic laws of the universe is that NOTHING IS PERFECT. Perfection simply doesn’t exist…without imperfection, neither you nor I, would exist.- Stephen Hawking

Don’t expect perfection.

Nobody is perfect.

Love each other for who you are. (loveable quotes.com)

Nothing is perfect in this world,

Everything has it’s pros and cons –Nivendita Sharma

This is a great self-help book:

“Your Erroneous Zones’ by Wayne Dyer.

I read this a long time ago, but alot of it has stuck with me. It’s a hard read. It is a book that really gets you thinking about your patterns (most of us have them), especially in regards to what I call (maybe the book does too?), ‘the blame game’. It is much easier to look outward when we are dissatisfied with out lives than it is to pause and self-reflect and to take responsibility for what we ourselves, can do to improve our lives. As I said, this is not an easy book, its actually an uncomfortable read, but I believe it is a helpful for many people. It has been many years since I read it, but it is actually a book I am thinking I will re-read.

Not to be macabe or anything, but I like this quote by Orson Wells: “We are born alone, live alone, and die alone. Only through love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we’re not alone” and this one by Mother Theresa: ” The most terrible poverty is lonliness and the feeling of being unloved”. -So if you are feeling lonely, go somewhere you will see people, call or visit a friend or cuddle with your pets. I have posted this video before, but I think it is worth re-posting:

I like to watch this sometimes as a reminder of the good things that can come when you are alone.

This is such an awesome song.

The kind of love I always wanted. They say nobody gets everything. I have come believe that is true. (life is bittersweet). I have had the best types of love with my son, precious animals and family. Despite being too ill to do too much or travel, I have had something else, time, lots of time to do my arts and crafts, (I’m not always well enough to do even that, but usually I can do something from my bed). I have had the freedom of peace without people picking away at me, controlling me , suffocating or being intentionally cruel. Still this song is dreamy and I just love it. Maybe in the next life?
