“Life is so crazy to me.. You start in small skin with no realization of what’s around you You grow; Your skin, your body, your mind, your soul, your whole being You begin to feel more and more Innocence turns into curiosity and exploration Emotions flow so willingly with no control Knowledge isn’t given, it’s learned Time persists no matter the desire to manage it Other energies enter your life with a time limit you’re completely unaware of.. Heartbreak and love come in copious forms and all so unexpectedly. Life; it’s so unpredictable, so inevitable, so mysterious I think of life as looking through a never ending tunnel of darkness with only a candle stick. The tunnel of darkness being your life full of the unknown. The candle being you. It flickers, at times burning brighter than others. You can see what’s closely around you yet that light only burns so bright. You’re aware of your current surroundings as you continue your passage through the tunnel. Every candle that’s lit is eventually going to burn out. The tunnel will always be.”

“Exploitation is real and identifiable and fighting it makes you strong, not weak. And sexual violence is real, and it is intolerable and fighting it makes you strong, not weak. And women-hating is real and its systematized in pornography, and in acts of sexual violence against women, and fighting it makes you strong, not weak. And the right and the left both weather it’s Phyliss Schlafly who’s lecturing on how, if you had been virtuous, you wouldn’t have been sexually harassed or the left thats explaining to you that you should celebrate your sexuality and forget about rape. Forget about it, don’t have a bad attitude, don’t feel like a victim. They both want women to accept the status quo, to live in the status quo, and not to organize the political resistance(that i talked about earlier.) Because the first step in resisting exploitation is recognizing it, seeing it and knowing it and not lying about where it is sitting on you. And the second step is enough caring about other women. That if today, you are fine, and yesterday, you were fine, but your sister hanging from the tree is not fine, that you will go the distance to cut her down.”

“In the embrace of God's love, find solace and strength. Each breath is a divine reminder that you are part of a greater plan. Be thankful for the gift of life, for the air in your lungs is a testament to grace. In moments of challenge, remember you are held in the hands of boundless love. Gratitude for each breath is a celebration of the continuous journey sculpted by the Creator's unwavering affection.”

“... we never know what will happen next, what we will see, and what important person will come into our life, or what important person we will lose. Life is change, constant change, and unless we are lucky enough to find comedy in it, change is nearly always a drama, if not a tragedy. But after everything, and even when the skies turn scarlet and threatening, I still believe that if we are lucky enough to be alive, we must give thanks for the miracle of every moment of every day, no matter how flawed. And we must have faith in God, and in the universe, and in a better tomorrow, even if that faith is not always deserved- Pino Lella”
