So, I write.... I'm a Scorpio.....intense, passionate, and trying to make sense of the world around me.
There are always words and images swirling around in my head, in everything I see, or feel, there is a poem or story.
Three passions have governed my life: The longings for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind]. Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness. In the union of love, I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined. With equal passion, I have sought knowledge. I have wished to understand the hearts of [people]. I have wished to know why the stars shine. Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens, but always pity brought me back to earth; cries of pain reverberated in my heart, of children in famine, of victims tortured, and of old people left helpless. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer. This has been my life; I found it worth living. Bertrand Russell
I worshipped dead men for their strength, Forgetting I was strong.
Either you think - or else others have to think for you and
take power from you, pervert and discipline your natural tastes,
civilize and sterilize you.
--F. Scott Fitzgerald
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be touched. They must be felt with the heart"~Helen Keller
Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely."
