We hoard our existence with so many chores and routines that we reach a point when we need someone else to do that tedious and mindless job for us. But once that happens, it is practically impossible to ever take that ability back. We become less and less functional, more and more dependent. It’s a way of aging quickly.

I have a huge confession to make: I’ve always had more trust on people who were good looking. That was until I learned the lesson the hard way. Now it’s the opposite, I have less trust the more good looking they are. I feel quite comfortable with that approach. No regrets. You can’t trust beauty.

When I have a fixed idea that I want to take into reality I may think I had begun realizing it on a specific day, or even hour, or in the very moment I revealed the wording from my unconscious. The fact is that I may very well be already in the middle of making that idea happen before I realize of its beginnings. I think the point is in taking it to a place of arrival, regardless of when or where it departed from. I believe things may have an end, but they have no beginning.

When I think I’m experiencing the first moments of relief after a long period of worry, I begin to worry about the ending of that relief period.

I remember reading Dracula when I was very young. I think it was then when I fell in love with Victorian literature.

Our birthday is our own personal New Year’s Day. The sun rises up just for you. Look ahead with your heart not just your eyes, or your hands, or your pockets. No need to be a dictatorial glutton, just don’t waste the chance to be the happiest for yourself. It’s not about others, or about things.

There are some days when we feel all our expectations not only are cancelled, but they also seem pointless and ridiculous. But then some other days our expectations are exceeded.

Things that are massive and concrete are not necessarily better things. In fact, they could be things that are soulless, characterless.

You will never see me waiting to catch a wedding garter after being tossed. Oh no.
