"...life isn't happily ever after and golden sunsets and shit like that. It's work. The person you love is rarely worthy of how big your love is. Because no one is worthy of that and maybe no one deserves the burden of it, either. You'll be let down. You'll be disappointed and have your trust broken and have a lot of real sucky days. You lose more than you win. You hate the person you love as much as you love him. But, shit, you roll up your sleeves and work - at everything- because that's what growing older is."
'Mystic River' - Dennis Lehane
Something from the brilliant mind that is Eckhart Tolle:
Whenever two or more egos come together, drama of one kind or another ensues. But even if you live totally alone, you still create your own drama.
When you feel sorry for yourself, that's drama.
When you feel guilty or anxious, that's drama.
When you let the past or future obscure the present, you are creating time, psychological time -- the stuff of which drama is made.
Whenever you are not honoring the present moment by allowing it to 'be', you are creating drama.
Most people are in love with their particular life drama.
Their story is their identity.
The ego runs their life.
They have their whole sense of self invested in it.
Even their -- usually unsuccessful -- search for an answer, a solution, or for healing becomes part of it.
What they fear and resist most is the end of their drama.
As long as they are their mind, what they fear and resist most is their own awakening.
Mad Girl's Love Song - Sylvia Plath
"I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And arbitrary blackness gallops in:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me quite insane.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
God topples from the sky, hell's fires fade:
Exit seraphim and Satan's men:
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
I fancied you'd return the way you said,
But I grow old and I forget your name.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
I should have loved a thunderbird instead;
At least when spring comes they roar back again.
I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)"
