Bloomstrandilotus - Kviknar Von

"The Brothers Karamazov", Fyodor Dostoevsky (translated by Constance Garnett)

Espero que recuerdes que es muy humano y normal anhelar el afecto, la interacción humana, la atención y el amor. No eres "demasiado necesitado" o "demasiado sensible" por querer que tus necesidades emocionales y sociales se satisfagan en consecuencia, no fuiste muy poco amigo, ni pareja para nadie, puedes estar traquilo.

Ser bueno es apostar por corazones que ni siquiera saben que merecen ser amados. Dar amor incluso a quienes parecen no tener un lugar para recibirlo.

Es propio de las almas anchas y profundas atormentarse: las tempestades ocurren en el mar, no en los charcos.

Fernando Savater

The heart, after agreeing with the brain to feel no more, falls to it's old habit, anyways.

The heart does not fear, but only wants --

the brain wants, too, but also knows --

When a good thing comes it will not last.

And so the heart saturates itself, in this, while the brain prepares, happy and sad in it's bitter sweet, weary of the ends that are to come --

shoring up its defenses for the time when a swelling heart grows too big, the dam eventually breaks,

and the plains of my soul will drown in anguish --

V. Rue, 2025.

First and last time. 😌

I didn't fall in love with you because I was lonely or lost, I fell in love with you because after getting to know you, I realized that I wanted to make you a permanent part of my world.

“One of the most beautiful things we can do is to help one another. Kindness doesn’t cost a thing.”
