WANT

want/wish

Sat, 23 Feb 2013 12:22:42 +0700

“Want” is naked.

Nightmare-naked. Like, everyone is pointing and laughing at your uncovered parts. Naked because it is the absence of something (leaf), probably something essential. It’s unwanted naked, rated high, the stakes even higher.

“Want” implies that there isn’t enough to go around. If you take it, it’s yours, but only if somebody else doesn’t steal it. Only if somebody else doesn’t get to it first. Gold in the backyard. You’ve been digging for a long time but have come up empty. There’s a price to pay, and no matter how ridiculous, you’ll cough it up, along with some of your dignity and your humanness and your kindness.

“Want” is blind. It doesn’t take into account anything but its own hunger, scoops the whole feast out of the pot onto the plate, eats it piping hot. No taste. It can’t see beyond the table which is an empty hole which is a prison.

Instead — “wish”.

I wish this for myself.

Because there is enough love in the world to go around. Because wishing in kindness for myself means I can wish in kindness for others. We have the same warm hungry hearts.

“

Riding bikes everywhere? Using recyclable diapers? Carpooling? We’ve been doing that in Eritrea for decades. Where’s our reward for saving the Earth? Why aren’t we plastered all over Time magazine? If we lived in the same disgusting, gluttonous fashion that Americans lived, this planet would no longer be able to sustain the human race. But yet, they blame the world’s environmental ills on “overpopulation” (code: poor brown people existing) and then usurp our lifestyle habits, trademark it as their own and pat themselves on the back for doing the bare minimum.

How convenient of such a narcissistic nation.

”

- My uncle, upon learning about America’s “new Green Movement”. Obviously, he’s not impressed. (via eastafrodite)

sorry-so-sorry:

There were a few people who suggested I do a background set for the BBC-Sherlock series, so here is my attempt! I hope they’re recognizable: the top one is Sherlock and the bottom two are John’s different outfits. (While drawing these, I discovered that scarves and sweaters are really hard to draw correctly! >_<’ )

My other background sets: Doctor Who | Supernatural

designed-for-life:

A reading nook incorporated into the library is a very charming idea, especially when you have a large window with a glorious view. Surrounded by tall shelves, filled with books, instantly induces a sense of coziness. But grand window or not, this idea is a great one for making use of a narrow space, that otherwise might be wasted due to its awkward size. So if you have a small narrow space you don’t know what to do with, consider setting up a cozy bench (preferably with storage capabilities) and keeping it company with some tall bookshelf companions.

This is someone dying while having an MRI scan. Before you die, your brain releases tons and tons of endorphins that make you feel a range of emotions. Tragically beautiful.
