I still think of you
What ever happened to free spirits?

All the agonies were just so we could finally recognize the glory
We all love severely flawed people.
This is the nature of love.
We live in a world that buries us in distractions to protect us from the spiritual agonies of being lost and saved.
I need no more noise… Give me quiet agonies instead.
A little chaos is good for the soul
The biggest trick the devil ever pulled was assuring us we could change the world.
We can only change ourselves.
We bragged on our sins
…and then wondered why we hurt all the people we ever loved.
Living a life is much harder than it looks
Living a life is much harder than it looks
We are always dying and being born again


Please count me out
Will killing our fellow human beings really make it better?
The sweetest ache is knowing you hold something beautiful, even as it slips through your fingers...
The worse the world gets, the more and more thankful I am that she is in it
The only war that we should be pursuing is the war with our own inner shadows.
