sharp teeth.

use your words to sharpen your teeth (not cut at your heart/soul).
speak what you mean!

human/being.

you, yes you, come here. come look closely at the ground & how the grass is planted, solidly into the ground. look at the sky & how the clouds are constantly changing shape & blowing every which way. look at the trees & how their leaves are falling to the ground or blossoming into beautiful [...]

trees.

So the tree rustles in the evening, when we stand uneasy before our own childish thoughts: Trees have long thoughts, long-breathing and restful, just as they have longer lives than ours. They are wiser than we are, as long as we do not listen to them. But when we have learned how to listen to [...]

remember these two things:

YOU DON”T OWE ANYONE ANYTHING
&&&&&
I BELIEVE IN YOU.

want journal.

in this book, his father had written as an inscription & directive, write what you want. every day, or as often as you can, write what you want. that way, whenever you’re confused or rudderless, you can look to this book, & be reminded where you want to go & what you’re looking for…this journal [...]

tribe.

we as people crave community. so why is it that when we’re feeling absolutely lost we regress & separate ourselves from everyone & everything. little ghost that doesn’t work. find your tribe. it may be tough. you may go from person to person to person looking for someone to click with. don’t give up. it will [...]

look up at the sky.

when you put things in perspective everything seem so silly: we’re just fragments of the universe, and yet we can spend our whole lives fretting about stretch marks, big noses, small breasts, chubby fingers. what the hell?
does it really seem worth it? how much of your day do you spend worrying: she’s prettier than me. [...]

let’s promenade down the boulevards with terrific pride & light in our eyes.

Every day

Every day is the best day ever. No second chances and no regrets, now and now and now. Memory is a reminder of… memory is a reminder that things were one way before, but TODAY is the chance to make everything how you want it to you be.
The first step is the first step towards [...]

future.

the leaves are changing & so can you. NEW SCHOOL. NEW JOB. NEW LOVE. NEW LIFE. autumn calls for reinvention, a change of scenery. don’t hold back. cut your hair, tell her you love her, tell him you’re leaving, start a band, leave your job, switch your major, do what makes you feel good. the [...]

We don’t have to be quiet.

Please feel free to be a guerrilla lovespreader.
Schools with libraries and public computers make this so easy. One method I prefer as a way to spread a little love and catch people out of their routines is to switch the home page of a browser, like firefox, safari, internet explorer, etc. to Y.A.R.
This can be [...]

tonight’s the night!!!

look up towards the sky
& watch it shine
& as you watch it,
empty yourself
& let it’s beauty
fill you.

body catch a body.

the most important thing you can do is to love your body. every body must love their body. every body is exquisite.
here is one way to grasp how extraordinary your body is: think of your body as a beautiful fruit tree. your finger tips are the beautiful blossoms which produce the fruit which is [...]

postal revolution!

we need addresses!!!!

never.

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts they will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.
— Roald Dahl, The Twits

find some meaning.

Sometimes the best friends we have are the last people we thought would end up in our lives.
I recently got back in touch with a friend from high school, and while we got along well then, and had mutual interests (such as they are when you’re 16), I had some reservations about renewing the friendship. [...]

tomorrow.

tomorrow is always too late. what is wrong with today? we need to learn to take action & chase feelings the second we feel them. let’s stop putting things off. what is the point? why do we put things off? there is really no reason. what holds us back? is it fear? lack of time? [...]

ghost.

sometimes when things stop making sense it’s best to slowly remove yourself from everything & become a secret little ghost. unplugging your phone, leaving the internet, refusing to speak. you can drift through your days in a fog & not think much about anything because thinking would lead to too many things & your frail [...]
