Those who speak ill of the spiritual life, Although they come and go by day, Are like the smith's bellows: They take breath but are not alive.
-Nagarjuna
Work like you don't need the money. Love like you've never been hurt. Laugh like no one's listening, and Dance like no one is watching.

On the way home
this car hears my confessions.
*I think tonight I'll take the long way.*
-"The Sharp Hint of New Tears" by Dashboard Confessional
And all at once the crowd begins to sing

*Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same.*
Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you've started to compare to someone not there
Maybe you want it, maybe you need it.
Maybe it's all you're running from,
*Perfection will not come.*
Maybe you want her, maybe you need her.
Maybe you had her, *maybe you lost her* to another,
To another...
