when I say your name

"I think the angels are your brothers, yeah
They told you about me, said you're just what she needs
And I find myself thanking your mother
For giving birth to a saint
My spirit flies when I say your name
If there's one thing that's true
It's that I was born to love you

Cause your eyes are the windows to heaven
Your smile could heal a million souls
Your love completes my existence
You're the other half that makes me whole
You're the only other half that makes me whole"

- Amel Larrieux

I love the color and the crop of this image. Inviting and beautiful.

don't even feel like falling

"...I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
To pull me back to the ground again..."
- Halo - Beyonce

I am busy being surrounded by gratuitous amounts of love right now and this image encapsulates that for me.

you

"The best thing about me is you." - Shannon Crown

I love masuimi and most of her photos. This one just brings out emotion. The quote I felt fit me like a glove.

The Fear

I want to be rich and I want lots of money
I dont care about clever I dont care about funny
I want loads of clothes and f***loads of diamonds
I heard people die while they are trying to find them

Ill take my clothes off and it will be shameless
Cuz everyone knows thats how you get famous
Ill look at the sun and Ill look in the mirror
Im on the right track yeah Im on to a winner

Chorus
I dont know whats right and whats real anymore
I dont know how Im meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
Cuz Im being taken over by The Fear

Lifes about film stars and less about mothers
Its all about fast cars and passing each other
But it doesnt matter cause Im packing plastic
and thats what makes my life so f***ing fantastic

And I am a weapon of massive consumption
and its not my fault its how Im program to function
Ill look at the sun and Ill look in the mirror
Im on the right track yeah Im on to a winner

Chorus
I dont know whats right and whats real anymore
I dont know how Im meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
Cuz Im being taken over by The Fear

Bridge
Forget about guns and forget ammunition
Cause Im killing them all on my own little mission
Now Im not a saint but Im not a sinner
Now everything is cool as long as Im getting thinner

Chorus
I dont know whats right and whats real anymore
I dont know how Im meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
Cause Im being taken over by fear

- Lily Allen

I am a big sideshow and carnival fan........so I diggs it like a grave.

worth all the suffering

"Who will tell whether one happy moment of love or the joy of breathing or walking on a bright morning and smelling the fresh air, is not worth all the suffering and effort which life implies." - Erich Fromm

covers and discovers

Time covers and discovers everything. - german proverb

This image simply amazing. My favorite part is the tone to the color and the lighting, but the pose and dress are perfect also.

The most beautiful thing

“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed.” - Albert Einstein

too careful

“A man cannot be too careful in the choice of his enemies” - Oscar Wilde
