    “ولأنني كبُرت بما يكفي لأفهم حقيقة الحياة، أدركت بأن المرتبة الأولى لا تكفي لأحصل على وظيفة ..
    و الجمال لا يكفي لأتزوج من الرجل الذي أريد ..
    و مِنح الأراضي لن تشملني ..
    و ثمن البناء باهضٌ جداً ..
    و الإيجارات فاحشة ..
    و ما من رجلٍ يستحقني ..
    و سماؤنا لا تُمطر .. و إذا أمطرت .. غرقنا!
    و أشهر الكتب في مكتباتنا ممنوعة ..
    و الرجل الذي أحببته متزوج!
    و ثمن طباعة كتاب أوفر من ثمن فستان سهرة ..
    لذا.. صرتُ أكتب. و الباقي ألقيتُ به عرض الحائط!”
    ندى ناصر, مذكرات ضلع أعوج

    Shel Silverstein
    “And after a long time the boy came back again.
    "I am sorry, Boy," said the tree, "but I have nothing left to give you-
    My apples are gone."
    "My teeth are too weak for apples," said the boy.
    "My branches are gone," said the tree.
    "You cannot swing on them-"
    "I am too old to swing on branches," said the boy.
    "My trunk is gone," said the tree.
    "You cannot climb-"
    "I am too tired to climb," said the boy.
    "I am sorry," sighed the tree.
    "I wish that I could give you something... but I have nothing left. I am an old stump. I am sorry..."
    "I don't need very much now," said the boy, "just a quiet pleace to sit and rest. I am very tired."
    "Well," said the tree, straightening herself up as much as she could,
    "well, an old stump is a good for sitting and resting. Come, Boy, sit down. Sit down and rest."
    And the boy did.
    And the tree was happy.”

    Mark Manson
    “Because here’s the thing that’s wrong with all of the “How to Be Happy” shit that’s been shared eight million times on Facebook in the past few years—here’s what nobody realizes about all of this crap: The desire for more positive experience is itself a negative experience. And, paradoxically, the acceptance of one’s negative experience is itself a positive experience. This is a total mind-fuck. So I’ll give you a minute to unpretzel your brain and maybe read that again: Wanting positive experience is a negative experience; accepting negative experience is a positive experience. It’s what the philosopher Alan Watts used to refer to as “the backwards law”—the idea that the more you pursue feeling better all the time, the less satisfied you become, as pursuing something only reinforces the fact that you lack it in the first place.

    “Don't Just

    Don't just learn, experience.
    Don't just read, absorb.
    Don't just change, transform.
    Don't just relate, advocate.
    Don't just promise, prove.
    Don't just criticize, encourage.
    Don't just think, ponder.
    Don't just take, give.
    Don't just see, feel.
    Don’t just dream, do.
    Don't just hear, listen.
    Don't just talk, act.
    Don't just tell, show.
    Don't just exist, live.”
    Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart
