You Cannot Outrun Pain.

We have a God who loves us more than we could ever even understand. What is more comforting than that? 💛

Me consideraba alguien racional, analítico y centrado con sus convicciones, pero esa racionalidad que me caracteriza no es nada comparado cuando mis sentimientos se desbordan. Ni la propia razón contiene el impulso que me posee por querer sentir. Es un peligro que me enamore, y más aun que me encariñe de cualquier persona, solo a quien me quiera conocer y me permita conocerle es en quien puedo confiar, aunque me invade la ansiedad.

“Read a lot of stories, listen to a lot of music, and think about what the stories you encounter mean for your own life and lives of those you love. In that way, you will not be alone with an empty self; you will have a newly rich life with yourself, and enhanced possibilities of real communication with others.”

— Martha Nussbaum, in Take My Advice, James L. Harmon ed.

“It’s life that matters, nothing but life – the process of discovering, the everlasting and perpetual process, not the discovery itself, at all.”

— Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Idiot

Mente indomable (1997)

In the quiet of her heart, she found hope's light, and with her imagination as the only brush, painted a world where dreams could take flight.

“When pain brings you down, don’t be silly, don’t close your eyes and cry, you just might be in the best position to see the sun shine.”

— Alanis Morissette
