“Your love
Should never be offered to the mouth of a
Stranger,
Only to someone
Who has the valor and daring
To cut pieces of their soul off with a knife
Then weave them into a blanket
To protect you.”
—   Hafiz

Paris Birthday’s are around the corner

“

There is no reason why you should be bored when you can be otherwise.
But if you find yourself sitting in the hedgerow with nothing but weeds,
there is no reason for shutting your eyes and seeing nothing,
instead of finding what beauty you may in the weeds.

To put it cynically, life is too short to waste it in drawing blanks.
Therefore, it is up to you to find as many pictures to put on your blank pages as possible.
