excuse me sir,

could you please tell me which sea of hell is this?

* Maps, Qiu Zhijie (1969, Zhangzhou, China)

“Remind thyself, in the darkest moments, that every failure is only a step toward success, every detection of what is false directs you toward what is true, every trial exhausts some tempting form of error, and every adversity will only hide, for a time, your path to peace and fulfillment. ” 

Og Mandino (1923-1996)

morningzzz!... 

open your eyes, 

breathe life, 

stay nowhere.

My dear,

In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.

In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.

In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.

I realized, through it all, that…

In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.

And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me,

within me, there’s something stronger –

something better, pushing right back.

Truly yours,

Albert Camus
