Within the event horizon: poetry & prose Quotes

“It is not granted to us that what we wish for most of all will fall into our laps. Luck is no star-money falling into our laps when we stupidly stare into the starry skies and wait for something to happen. No. We have to actively participate in searching for and creating our very own happiness. In the Declaration of Independence, the pursuit of happiness is mentioned – it is one of the fundamental rights of every human being, as well as freedom and life itself. We cannot passively expect. We have to actively strive for it. Every human can change his life for the better if he is willing to take the heat for it. But it takes courage.”

“Every morning is a beginning, every evening a farewell. The everlasting resurgence lets me start anew – I will enshrine every tear, every smile. None of it I will let go or die. Never will I forget … My confessions have always been words full of deceit – a house built on sand. […] I planted a flower in your garden. We enshrine an eternity not to be found in any reality. You are the dome of my sky and my soil. In your shadow I can thrive – it gives the only light that lets me live. … I see your coming and going – but my heart leans on your resurgence.”
