gptkbp:notable_quote The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart.
Life is indeed darkness save when there is urge.
Work is love made visible.
Your children are not your children.
Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.
For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?
Love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation.
For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind.
Let there be spaces in your togetherness.
Your soul is oftentimes a battlefield.
The earth is but one country, and mankind its citizens.
And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
The soul knows not the house of its birth.
