"To love. To be loved. To never forget your insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget."
-Arundhati Roy
"Oh, but I do love to love. I'd love you mostly, under the midnight skies, raining stars, quiet whispers exchanged between just us. You, incomparable to others, and me-- a queen. I'm yours now. Let love reign."
@ Nish- I agree...the focus of this blog is showcase real issues, which are sometimes not so beautiful.
@ Adiya- Thank you! And I agree...
@ Dee- I came across this artist and HAD to post this. There is such a lack of awareness when it comes to victims of domestic violence and their lives have been affected.
