We spell....

"WE SPELL LOSS

THE WAY THE EARTH

HAS TAUGHT US;

IN STORMS,

IN AVALANCHES,

IN EARTHQUAKES

DOWN OUR SPINE."

"THERE ARE TEARS WHICH PIERCE THROUGH THE EARTH AND RISE AS STARS IN OTHER SKIES.

I WONDER WHO HAS WEPT OUR STARS?"

The pain...

The pain caused by that incident is still in your mind, or your heart.…

 You can hide memories, but you can’t erase the history that produced them…

If nothing else, you need to remember that.

You can’t erase history, or change it. It would be like destroying yourself.

— Haruki Murakami, from Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage (Knopf, 2014)

FALL INTO THE WATER.
AND NOW IN THE MOONLIGHT THEY STILL FALL,
BUT EACH LEAF IS FRINGED WITH SILVER."

"IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
I RISE WITHOUT BREATH,
SHAKING WITH A NEED
TO WRITE A PIECE OF YOU DOWN."

"BE SOFT.
BE STRONG.
BE A FLOWER
INSIDE THE STORM,
A FORCE OF NATURE."

she felt….

"SHE FELT VERY YOUNG; AT THE SAME TIME UNSPEAKABLY AGED. SHE SLICED LIKE A KNIFE THROUGH EVERYTHING;

AT THE SAME TIME WAS OUTSIDE, LOOKING ON.

SHE HAD A PERPETUAL SENSE,… OF BEING OUT, OUT, FAR OUT TO SEA AND ALONE."

~   Virginia Woolf, MRS DALLOWAY
