another stolen thought to wonder about

“I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. .” 
― Gilda Radner

one of you've got mail memorable quotes ''stolen thoughts''

Sometimes I wonder about my life. 
I lead a small life - well, valuable, but small 
and sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven't been brave?
 So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, why shouldn't it be the other way around? 
I don't really want an answer.
 I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void.
 So good night, dear void.

stolen thoughts

"The sense of unhappiness is so much easier to convey than that of happiness. In misery we seem aware of our own existence, even though it may be in the form of a monstrous egotism: this pain of mine is individual, this nerve that winces belong to me and to no other. But happiness annihilates us: we lose our identity."

~ Graham Greene, The End of the Affair

a quote from today

We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.” — Dr. Seuss

The Castle in the Pyrenees

"Can we make a solemn promise to delete every email we send each other after we've read them? I mean straight away, right then and there, and that naturally means no printouts either....We will step outside time, leave what we call ‘reality’."

~ Jostein Gaarder, The Castle in the Pyrenees


For Steinn and Solrun, the Internet is their reconnection, the means by which they rekindle what was lost so long ago. This is probably the seventh novel I read for Gaarder, and I am again captivated by his storytelling, by his views on the universe, our footprint on the planet, and definitely on love. I get lost inside the stories within stories. I am still in the beginning, but I know it already got to me.

and then she tells him (referring to the painting above):
" But perhaps you're blind. Perhaps you're both narrow-minded and short-sighted.
Do you remember that Magritte picture of a huge lump of rock floating above the ground? I think it had a small castle on top. You can't have forgotten that picture.
But if you'd witnessed something similar today, you would certainly have tried to explain it away. Maybe you'd have said it was a trick. That the rock was hollow and filled with helium. Or that it was supported by an ingenious network of invisibly pulleys and wires.
I'm a much simpler soul. I would probably just have raised my arms to the boulder and sung out my 'hallelujah' or my 'amen'."

...and thus speaks the emotional to the rational. They are lovers who were separated by space and time, meeting again -by coincidence or some universal masterplan- after 30 years. Trying to understand each other, trying to understand what drove them apart.

2 stolen thoughts in a row

"There comes a time in life when you have to let go of all the pointless drama and people who create it and surround yourself with people who make you laugh so hard that you forget the bad and focus solely on the good. After all, life is too short to be anything but HAPPY."

within a friday

i was planing to share some newly updates about my life, write a positive and joyful post since  last night
but i kindda got hunted/ distracted by some unwelcomed memories that pumped into my mind and some useless thoughts too, so i guess since the plan changed i will be posting a secret about me and a quote from grey's anatomy..


the secrets:
* i am an anti sociable person, not that i hate people but i just like spending my time with myself, usually i always come up with fake excuse or silly ones not to go out with anyone whoever this was.


* i never say the whole truth about anything to anyone no matter how close this person is to me , there's always a lie in the truth i say, there's always something not said, there's always something hidden just for me.


* i don't feel comfortable in big groups, i always have to feel unique, so it takes my a huge effort to bound with everybody and leave a good Impression , but i usually mess it up, and do somethings extremely foolish simply because i don't have the ability to judge people correctly from first sight.


the quote :
"we do not get unlimited chances to have the things that we want, and this i know, the missing of an opportunity that could change your life"
i so much relate to this quote for i am that girl who always waited for another chance to set something right, and once i do unfortunately life is not kind enough to accept it, 
being someone who wasted so many chances that i have been giving or asked for from dear people that my vanity made me take them for granted..


 for now i leave you with this music of special memories

and  i promise i cheerful, optimistic post really soon
thats all for now
xxxxx

stolen thought, or you may call it a quote from stardust

 a short story on the irony of life
"A fieldmouse found a fallen hazelnut and began to bite into the hard shell of the nut with its sharp, ever-growing front teeth, 

not because it was hungry but because it was a prince under an enchantment who not regain his outer form until he chewed the Nut of Wisdom.
 But its excitement made it careless , and only the shadow that blotted out the moonlight warned it of the descent of a huge grey owl , who caught the mouse in its sharp talons and rose again into the night. ....... 
herself under a curse, and only able to resume her rightful shape if she consumed a mouse who had eaten the Nut of Wisdom, or perhaps a small bear."

A quote on my favorite topic ever; time
"Tristane and Yvaine were happy together. Not foreverafter, for Time, the thief, eventually takes all things into his dusty storehouse, but they were happy, as these things go, for a long while."

Quote, Lyrics and In a moment of insanity

For today's post, I'll just put a quote from one of my favorite movies, and a line from one of my favorite songs. and a thought in my mind These represent my mood now. From Love Actually, Daniel: So what's the problem, Sammy-o? Is it just Mum or is it something else? Maybe... school - are you being bullied? Or is it something worse? Can you give me any clues at all? Sam: You really want to know? Daniel: I really want to know. Sam: Even though you won't be able to do anything to help? Daniel: Even if that's the case, yeah. Sam: Okay. Well, the truth is... actually... I'm in love. Daniel: Sorry? Sam: I know I should be thinking about Mum all the time, and I am. But the truth is I'm in love and I was before she died, and there's nothing I can do about it. Daniel: [laughs] Aren't you a bit young to be in love? Sam: No. Daniel: Oh, well, okay, right. Well, I mean, I'm a little relieved. Sam: Why? Daniel: Well, because I thought it would be something worse. Sam: [incredulous] Worse than the total agony of being in love? Daniel: Oh. No, you're right. Yeah, total agony. And from, Book of my life , by Sting There are promises broken and promises kept Angry words that were spoken, when I should have wept There's a chapter of secrets, and words to confess If I lose everything that I possess There's a chapter on loss and a ghost who won't die There's a chapter on love where the ink's never dry There are sentences served in a prison I built out of lies. and from somewhere deeply in my mind there's a thought IN A MOMENT OF INSANITY A struggle whether to give up and let go Or to stick with the hope and a memory of the day we laughed. A struggle with myself, to make a choice. Each option is torture, let go of a dream, of that day coming back Or stick with the pain until it does. After the struggle that went on for months In one moment of insanity, I decided ... Insanity came suddenly, too beautiful but too deadly... Perhaps it's a drug, to give you peace and tranquility But take away your soul… And in that moment I saw peace at a distance.. I knew I had to get there I just didn't know how Maybe if I gave up everything… Maybe if I tried… I let go of everything, One at a time Plans, Ambition, Career Friends, Family, Self All that remains is the insanity and the hope of the day coming back

I was born to catch dragons in their dens And pick flowers To tell tales and laugh away the morning To drift and dream like a lazy stream And walk barefoot across sunshine days. - James Kavanaugh

A quote from the Bible

(no, am not Christian, but noone said i had to be Christian to quote it! I just love this wisdom i will paste For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal a time to break down, and a time to build up a time to weep, and a time to laugh a time to mourn, and a time to dance a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing a time to seek, and a time to lose a time to keep, and a time to cast away a time to tear, and a time to sew a time to keep silence and a time to speak a time to love, and a time to hate a time for war, and a time for peace. ~Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
