If silence was a language— I’d speak it for you. Words can’t replace the feeling, inside this beautiful turmoil— the uncertainty of the storm, as I sit centered and calm, patient with silence, keeping faith— a caged bird, refusing to leave; a stray dog, waiting at the crossing. I’ve started falling into your embrace, the only harbor I wish for to see the end of days.

Catch me, I'm falling
"That's the thing about pain... It demands to be felt." -John Greene Pain is inevitable. Just like death you can't avoid it. There is pain in sorrow. There is pain in beauty. There is pain in everything. Even if it is the happiest moment it could still hurt. You search and search for a painless event but you'll never find it. The definition of inevitable is unavoidable. There is no getting around it. It will come into your life. No matter how hard you try to block it out. Pain is always there. No matter what.

Pain demands to be felt
“You should never be surprised by or feel the need to explain why any physical system is in a high entropy state.” ― Brian Greene, The Fabric of the Cosmos
