“إن إلهي ليس بقالاً ولا محاسباً، بل إنه إله عظيم. إله حيّ! فلماذا أريد إلهاً ميتاً؟ إنه حي. اسمه الحي، القيوم. لماذا أتخبط في مخاوف أبدية وقلق لا ينتهي، حيث يقيدني دائماً بالمحرمات والمحظورات؟ فلا حدود لرحمته. إذ إن اسمه الودود، الحميد. إني أحمده بكل كلماتي وتصرفاتي، بشكل طبيعي ويسر كما أتنفس الهواء.
اسمه الحميد. فكيف يمكنني أن أستغيب الآخرين وأشهر بهم وأنا أعلم في أعماق قلبي أن الله هو السميع البصير؟ اسمه البشير. جميل يفوق كل الأحلام والآمال.
الجميل، القيوم، الرحمن، الرحيم. أثناء المجاعات والفيضانات، وخلال الجفاف والظمأ، سأغني وأرقص له حتى تخور ركباتي، وحتى ينهار جسمي، وحتى يتوقف قلبي عن الخفقان. سأحطم نفسي إلى شذرات حتى لا أعدو إلا مجرد ذرة في العدم، عابر سبيل في الفراغ المحض، هباء الهباء في هندسته العظيمة. ولن أكف عن امتداح عظمته وكرمه بامتنان، وسعادة. سأشكره على كل ما منحني إياه وما حرمني منه، لأنه يعرف ما هو الأفضل لي.”
― إليف شافاق, The Forty Rules of Love

Shannon L. Alder
“Blame doesn't empower you. It keeps you stuck in a place you don't want to be because you don't want to make the temporary, but painful decision, to be responsible for the outcome of your own life's happiness.”
― Shannon L. Alder

Shannon L. Alder
“People that hold onto hate for so long do so because they want to avoid dealing with their pain. They falsely believe if they forgive they are letting their enemy believe they are a doormat. What they don’t understand is hatred can’t be isolated or turned off. It manifests in their health, choices and belief systems. Their values and religious beliefs make adjustments to justify their negative emotions. Not unlike malware infesting a hard drive, their spirit slowly becomes corrupted and they make choices that don’t make logical sense to others. Hatred left unaddressed will crash a person’s spirit. The only thing he or she can do is to reboot, by fixing him or herself, not others. This might require installing a firewall of boundaries or parental controls on their emotions. Regardless of the approach, we are all connected on this "network of life" and each of us is responsible for cleaning up our spiritual registry.”
― Shannon L. Alder

Charles Bukowski
“the best part was
pulling down the
shades
stuffing the doorbell
with rags
putting the phone
in the
refrigerator
and going to bed
for 3 or 4
days.
and the next best
part
was
nobody ever
missed
me.”
― Charles Bukowski, You Get So Alone at Times That it Just Makes Sense

Charles Bukowski
“Now something so sad has hold of us that the breath leaves and we can't even cry.”
― Charles Bukowski, You Get So Alone at Times That it Just Makes Sense
