“You’re radiant, Charlotte. They said that about you on our wedding day, and now again that you’re pregnant, but you’ve always been radiant. And the first time I saw that beauty under my hands, I felt how I feel when opening a brand new book. Do you know how that is? Where you only need to read the first few pages and you’re already thinking, ‘This might be a good one. One of the best ones. One of the rare finds that stays with you forever”

“For me,
you are fresh water
that falls from trees
when it has stopped raining. For me,
you are cinnamon that lingers
on the tongue and gives
bitter words
sweetening.
For me, you are the scent of
violins and vision
of valleys
smiling.
And still,
for me, your loveliness never ends.
It traverses
the world
and finds its
way back to me.
Only
me.”
― Kamand Kojouri

“be softer with you.
you are a breathing thing.
a memory to someone.
a home to a life.”

“In Workaholics Anonymous, one the exercises involves a simple reminder. We must, they say, "catch ourselves before we relapse into ego and self-will.” That is: Rest before you get tired. Check your impulses before they take over. Avoid the idiot lights—stop before there is a problem.”
― Ryan Holiday, Ego Is the Enemy
