There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination.
Living there, you’ll be free if you truly wish to be.

A sister's love.

Mon, 07 Nov 2011 16:58:00 -0800

“I miss my sister. Every night at 10 or so she used to call me on the phone and when I asked her why, she’d tell me that her body told her, she wanted to hear my voice.

I miss my sister. The smell of her shampoo…the way she could always convince me to read her another book.

When you love someone like I loved her, they’re a part of you..it’s like you’re attached by this invisible tether and no matter how far away you are, you can always feel them. And now every time I reach for that tether I know there’s no one on the other end and I feel like I’m falling into nothingness. Then I remember Jean…I remember a life led with no enemies, no resentments, no regrets and I’m inspired..to get up out of bed and go on.

I miss my sister so much. It feels like a piece of me has been ripped off. Just one more time I want to hold her, ten more seconds is that too much to ask, for ten more seconds to hold her?

But I can’t…and I won’t and the only thing keeping me from being swallowed whole by sadness is Jean would kill me if I did. So for now, I’m just going to miss her. I love you Jeannie, rest in peace.”

- Sue Sylvester, Glee

“

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.

We are all meant to shine, as children do. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone, and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

”

- Marianne Williamson

“Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it’s a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from.”

““A photograph never grows old. You and I change, people change all through the months and years but a photograph always remains the same. How nice to look at a photograph of mother or father taken many years ago. You see them as you remember them. But as people live on, they change completely. That is why I think a photograph can be kind.””

The people in “The Silent Evolution” were created from live casts of a wide sample of people, most of them locals—including Lucky, a Mexican carpenter (center), according to Taylor.
The characters range in age from a 3-year-old boy, Santiago, to an 85-year-old nun, Rosario (both not pictured), and include an accountant, yoga instructor, and acrobat, among others.

““Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80’s movies? I want John Cusack holding a boom box outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawn mower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his first into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an 80’s movie.””

““The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where loves resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It’s the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, & the beauty of a woman only grows with passing years.””

- Audrey Hepburn
