Live long and prosper.

If there’s any particular lesson that life has forced me [personally] to learn and humbly accept, is that you can’t ask someone to uproot their entire life, just so that you may proceed with your own. You can stomp, whine or beg all you want, but you cannot alter a person’s heart condition.
People are disturbed, not by things, but by the views they take of them.
Epictetus (via nirvikalpa)Thought for the day
A smug attitude will advance you to a state of bitter solitude, which you will come to regret, I assure you.
However, a particular kind of contentment will thoroughly imbue your mind if you pursue a life of quarantine. For the correct reasons, of course. I’m quite happy being alone, at the moment. My time seems to be well-endowed and leveraged in ways that are beneficial to me and close kin. I very much enjoy the sort of isolation I’m experiencing, make no doubt about it.
I always keep this in mind: broad and spacious is the road leading off into destruction; a complete catastrophe. Though a path leading to everlasting wisdom, contentment and fertile happiness seems to be narrow, jagged and possessing only a few occupants or wanderers, if you will.
Pardon my profanity, but fuck social acceptance. I feel that I’ve mentioned it before, but where is everyone’s god damn sense of adventure? Do not subject yourself to conformity. Create your own path, you won’t regret your findings.

One could consider me passionate about enlightening the human race and educating them. On the other hand however, the stupidity and naivety that resides within the people is intoxicating with a seemingly incurable hangover. The idiocy among them could be likened to flesh eating bacteria; it simply consumes them. What’s left of their intelligence is sparse and patchy. Too quickly do I find myself reluctant to help people, due to these unfortunate circumstances. Saturated with imperfections myself, I need to tend to the bitter calamity in my mind and heart. Only then will I learn how to properly distribute patience and express genuine humility to surrounding persons.
There exists, however, behavioral patterns of people that are absolutely revolting and perhaps even inexcusable. I must also must learn to recognize salient characteristics of a disingenuous individual who deceives and cloaks their heart of malice and spite with honest intentions, and those who genuinely possess honest intentions. To acknowledge the difference between the two with precision.
Regardless of one’s questionable motives, may love be extended to them. It’s just a difficult task to execute sometimes, that’s all I’m saying.
There are multitudes of dangerously attractive males on this planet. And I seem to be fixed solely on the ones in my own locality. It’s difficult to wrap your brain around anything outside of the only perimeter you’ve ever genuinely known. One you’d like to call home. Thinking “outside of the box” couldn’t be more appropriate. I need to exercise this mental attitude frequently. Why hone in on a few individuals here, when the globe and its entirety await you?
Just imagine all of the beautiful humans! They’re all existing, at this very moment. Going about their lives, in whatever fashion they please. Fascinating!
FUCK!

Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist
George Carlin (via vikingsunrise, passingfox) (via 43n3w)This is one of the few quotes on Tumblr I’ve read and thought “Wow, that is so true.”
(via savageinasuit)I hate it when strangers say “I don’t bite.”
Yeah, because the first thing I think when I meet somebody is “Holy shit, this bitch is gonna bite me.”
Release the need to be upset with others. Remember that anytime you’re filled with resentment, you’re turning the controls of your emotional life over to others to manipulate.
Dr. Wayne Dyer (via lucifelle)“The main social and economic causes of violence, and I’ll add political causes, are those that divide the population into the superior and inferior, the strong and the weak, the rich and the poor. The more highly unequal a society is the higher it’s rates of violence. For example, the most powerful predictor of homicide rates throughout the world, and this had been repeated in dozens of studies, is the size of the gap between the rich and the poor.”
