Closing your eyes isn’t going to change anything.

Nothing’s going to disappear just because you can’t see what’s going on.

In fact, things will even be worse the next time you open your eyes.

That’s the kind of world we live in. Keep your eyes wide open.

Only a coward closes his eyes.

Closing your eyes and plugging up your ears won’t make time stand still.”

Haruki Murakami

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly…

The soul, fortunately, has an interpreter – often an unconscious but still a faithful interpreter – in the eye.

Jane Eyre : Quotes

The soul, fortunately, has an interpreter –  often an unconscious

but still a faithful interpreter – in the eye.

 

I am no bird; and no net ensnares me:I am a free human being with

 an independent will.Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing 

animosity or registering wrongs.

Her coming was my hope each day,

Her parting was my pain;

Thechance that did her steps delay

Was ice in every vein.

I remembered that the real world was wide, and that a varied field of

hopes and fears, of sensations and excitments, awaited those who had

the courage to go forth into it’s expanse, to seek real knowledge of life amidst it’s perils.

Beauty is in the eye of the gazer.

To prolong doubt was to prolong hope

Friends always forget those whom fortune forsakes.

Make my happiness–I will make yours

 ***

 You can overcome your past, no matter how bad it is.

Your will shall decide your destiny.

***

 Loving and respecting yourself is essential, and is the key to independence.

***

The possibilities for life are endless for those who take risks.

 Don’t be afraid to speak your mind.
