“...and maybe greatness isn’t about being popular or heroic, maybe it’s about just fighting for the greater good for the world even when the world turns back on you.”

When the apocalypse comes, Jesus asks you to dinner. Jesus is the son of your mother’s best friend; naturally, you cannot say no. He’s five minutes late in picking you up, bites his thumb in supplication, and you want to press him against the leather seats of Jesus’ dad’s Cadillac. You’ve been on worse dates. The company’s decent, the séx phenomenal, except there is no séx and you’re left wondering why you thought there would be. This is not how you pictured the end of the world. Somewhere, a door slams. Your neighbors are filing for divorce. Jesus walks you to your door with his hand above your waist. He kisses you and time unravels, a ball of yarn torn between opposing knitting needles. Crabapples. Jesus tastes like crabapples and the final stanza of “Amazing Grace.” God calls, asks Jesus when he’ll be home. The sky is orange. At the end of your mother’s driveway, your mother’s best friend’s son’s car radio narrates the coming of the savior: This is Delilah. Avert thy mortal eyes.
Brianna Albers, "Delilah"

“I wanted to call him,“ she said, ” just to see how he was doing. But you can’t do that. You can’t talk to someone who held your heart in their palm and pretend it never happened.
“I wanted to ask why it was so hard to get over him. I wanted to know if he felt pain like knives in his sides like I did. I wanted to know if he ever felt lonely when he listened to music, or if things reminded him of the memories we made.
“I wanted to say that I couldn’t remember the sound of him saying my name anymore and sometimes that scared me but I knew it was important, and that our last kiss wasn’t anything like in the movies, that it was so brief the wind had swept it away before I’d had a chance to commit it to memory. I wanted to explain how now I’d forgotten everything apart from the way he made me feel, like I could do anything, like love wasn’t just for perfect people, like love could also be for me.
“So my god I wanted to call him, but instead I sat on the floor and drank shots like they were tea. To be honest I don’t know if I still loved him, but then I suppose you have to love someone to miss them like that; like he.ll like absolute-f-cking he/ll.
—S.Z. // Excerpt from a book I’ll never write #218

Say yes when you see something you love. Say yes when you hear something you love. Say yes when you taste something you love. Say yes when you smell something you love. Say yes when you touch something you love. It doesn’t matter if you have it or not, say yes to it, because then you are choosing it!

Poem.
He'd often wrote poems for her.
About her short hair that reached
to her shoulders, tousled into waves,
like oceans of the colour of her eyes.
He would often write about how,
beautiful she was, the soft voice she had.
The quirky love proclaims in the poem,
he had written just for her, in his own book.
Today, he brought bright yellow flowers to
the woman in apartment 34b, who just
finished learnt braille. He then realized,
she'll never be able to read the poems..
he wrote for her.

But is it not the fact that religion emanates from the nature, from the moral state of the individual? Is it not therefore true that unless the nature be completely exercised, the moral state harmonized, the religion cannot be healthy?

What if you received an official notice today that this is your last day to live? What would you do? Would you try to make more money, or stay late at the office working hard? Would you spend time with your family, or express thanks to those who’ve helped you along the way? Would you seek to get right with God?

“We have all hurt someone tremendously,
whether by intent or accident.
We have all loved someone tremendously,
whether by intent or accident.
It is an intrinsic human trait,
and a deep responsibility, I think,
to be an organ and a blade.
But, learning to forgive ourselves and others
because we have not chosen wisely is what makes
us most human. We make horrible mistakes. It’s how we learn.
We breathe love. It’s how we learn.
And it is inevitable.”

Nayyirah Waheed (via lazypacific)
