if you arent someone the church wanted dead 300 years ago are you really living
the peace that you’ll gain will replace everything you’ve ever lost
is there a scholarship for trying
“You, too, have lived, struggled, and suffered. Where I have wounds, you have scars. I want you to know one thing and one thing only: Nothing is more true than that misfortune brings understanding. One can never collapse inside oneself if one is truly sustained by pure understanding. How many things have I seen in myself and outside myself since my sorrow! The highest hopes spring from the deepest griefs.”
Victor Hugo, from a letter to Charles de Lacretelle written c. July 1844
I hope this time next year you’ll have thousands of new happy memories
