 Being deeply loved by someone

 gives you strength, 

while loving someone deeply 

gives you courage.

-Lao Tzu

Dare to Be

"When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully.

When there is darkness, dare to be the first to shine a light.

When there is injustice, dare to be the first to condemn it.

When something seems difficult, dare to do it anyway.

When life seems to beat you down, dare to fight back.

When there seems to be no hope, dare to find some.

When you’re feeling tired, dare to keep going.

When times are tough, dare to be tougher.

When love hurts you, dare to love again.

When someone is hurting, dare to help them heal.

When another is lost, dare to help them find the way.

When a friend falls, dare to be the first to extend a hand.

When you cross paths with another, dare to make them smile.

When you feel great, dare to help someone else feel great too.

When the day has ended, dare to feel as you’ve done your best.

Dare to be the best you can –

At all times, Dare to be!”

Count your life by smiles, not tears.”

 “The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.”

One man's trash is another man's treasure

 

Venting

 This is the moment, the perfect moment,

moment to vent to the world.

The past brings the present and the present 

brings the future, the world knows.

Inspired by nature I talk to the clouds,

I hear the ocean responding and

the breeze singing with the plants.

This is the moment to touch and feel,

to hear the message with the echo.

This is the moment to vent.

Claudia Luna

Still Another Day

 “We the mortals touch the metals,

the wind, the ocean shores, the stones,

knowing they will go on, inert or burning,

and I was discovering, naming all the these things:

it was my destiny to love and say goodbye.”

― Pablo Neruda 💟

“Extinguish my eyes, I'll go on seeing you.

Seal my ears, I'll go on hearing you.

And without feet I can make my way to you,

without a mouth I can swear your name.

👇

Break off my arms, I'll take hold of you

with my heart as with a hand.

Stop my heart, and my brain will start to beat.

And if you consume my brain with fire,

I'll feel you burn in every drop of my blood.”

― Rainer Maria Rilke

Haiku 111

“Cold walls

No need to whisper

I hear you”

― Elancharan Gunasekaran

A thought

Wide as lightning

bodies of the lovers

skin sloughed off

and still rubbing

Living

“I'm oxygen and she's dying to breathe.”
