“Most of us live our lives desperately trying to conceal the anguishing gap between our polished, aspirational, representational selves and our real, human, deeply flawed selves. Dunham lives hers in that gap, welcomes the rest of the world into it with boundless openheartedness, and writes about it with the kind of profound self-awareness and self-compassion that invite us to inhabit our own gaps and maybe even embrace them a little bit more, anguish over them a little bit less.” WorldWritingTryingHumansKindLittlesRealSelfBitsCompassionOur LivesAwarenessLittle BitSelf AwarenessEmbraceProfoundGapsInvitesAnguishFlawedBoundlessPolishedSelf CompassionReal Human Author:Maria Popova
“It's only when movement becomes the most natural state in our lives that we can finally begin to enjoy the motion. And it's only when standing still becomes impossible that we can finally embrace the kinds of changes that are inevitable in our lives. We were not designed to stand still. If we were, we'd have at least three legs. We were designed to move. Our bodies are bodies that have walked across vast continents. Our bodies are bodies that have carried objects of art and war over great distances. We are no less mobile than our ancestors. We are athletes. We are warriors. We are human.” IfsHumansKindArtStillsWarStatesBodyMovingThreeEnjoyNaturalOur LivesImpossibleMovementObjectsStandingEmbraceDistanceAthleteLegsWarriorInevitableAncestorContinentsMobileStanding StillThree Legs Author:John Bingham
“Most of us sleepwalk through our lives. We take all its glories, its wine, food, love, and friendship, its sunsets and its stars, its poetry and fireplaces and laughter, for granted. We forget that experience is not, or should not be, a casual encounter, but rather an embrace. Consequently, for too many of us, when we come to the end, we wonder where the years have gone. And we suspect we have not lived.” ShouldYearsEndsStarsForgetWonderGoneOur LivesGloryLaughterWineEmbraceGrantedEncountersSunsetSuspectsCasualLove And FriendshipFood LoveFireplaces Author:Jack McDevitt
“I think the biggest, saddest thing that happens in our lives is that we just don't embrace the things that could make it better because they don't seem to make it better at any given moment or we can't decide how to get across the aisle to that person.” ThinkingPersonsMomentsSeemsHappensLife IsGivenOur LivesEmbraceSaddestAisle Author:Adam Duritz
