Living Inside My Head

"Inside the light, my consciousness fades. What a strange world, Gaea. A beautiful, sad world. Maybe one day I will come to this place again? Of course. Van. He and I will meet again. That's our wish. Wishes do come true. Please. Stars glittering in the sky, please grant my wish. Please bequeath this wish even if today's memories go away. Desires racing into the sky, they will reach that man. When I realize it. When I wish for it. Good bye, Van, black-haired, clear-eyed man. I will without fail return to this world."  ~Hitomi Kanzaki from Escaflowne Prologue 2: Gaea Drama CD

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires. ~William Arthur Ward

"When your history is stolen from you, you lose your sense of that history." - Hashem Hama Abdoulah, Director of the Museum of Antiquities in Sulaymaniyah, Iraq

"People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within."

"People change. Some for the better, others for the worst."

This an extract from the letter of Princess Irene of Greece and Denmark referring to the recent death of her mother Queen Sophie of Greece, and the pain of losing one's both parents. This greatly reminds of someone who also had to experience this kind of ordeal. "The loss of our beloved Mother...was almost more than one could bear & heal, only time can ease the pains. Having lost both our beloved parents life doesn't seem worth living any more & one misses them everyday more. The only consolation is that at least they are happier on the other side without all the trials & difficulties of this hard life."

 "If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each man’s life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.” -- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
