“In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can’t build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery, and death. I see the world gradually being turned into a wilderness, I hear the ever approaching thunder, which will destroy us too, I can feel the sufferings of millions and yet, if I look up into the heavens, I think that it will all come right, that this cruelty too will end, and that peace and tranquility will return again.” ― The Diary of a Young Girl
Paul Apal’kin
Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to understand that this too, was a gift.
“Paradise lies at the feet of your mother.”

“Spirit” by George Roux, 1885
“Be hole,
be dust,
be dream,
be wind
Be night,
be dark,
be wish,
be mind,
Now slip,
now slide,
now move unseen
Above,
beneath,
betwixt,
between.”
