- In Another Life
In another life, I would have known you from the start. Maybe we would've become something more than nothing. In another life, you would've been the one who wrote this quote. Maybe you would've wanted to say many things to me but instead, you were forced to write here. In another life, you felt the same. Maybe you cared for me, but that's in another life.

- To My Teen Self
Those aren't friends. They're not. Really. Think about it! Would a friend slap your head? Would a friend yell at you? Would a friend make you sad on purpose. No. Real friends don't love to hear about how bad your life is. Real friends don't call you fat and tell you never to try. A real friend wouldn't shove you away and blame their decisions on you either! Those aren't your friends. And you are worth so much more than that. You are worth a real, honest, friend.
William Peter Blatty
- The Exorcist - Chap. 1
Like the brief doomed flare of exploding suns that registers dimly on blind men's eyes, the beginning of the horror passed almost unnoticed; in the shriek of what followed, in fact, was forgotten and perhaps not connected to the horror at all. It was difficult to judge.
Erwin Smith
- Attack on Titan
If you begin to regret, you'll dull your future decisions and let others make your choices for you. All that's left for you then is to die. Nobody can foretell the outcome. Each decision you make holds meaning only by affecting your next decision.
The woman who will always love you
- Noel
The first time I saw you, and your smile, and the way your beautiful eyes lit up... well that moment will forever be imprinted in my mind. You told me from the start that you weren't in a place where you could consider being in a romantic relationship. You were only looking for a friend. You never led me on or played me. But how could I not develop feelings for you? How could I not fall in love with you after getting to know you and us developing this wonderfully unique bond of friendship?

- Rainbow
The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you've gotta put up with the rain. You are the artist of you're own life, don't hand anyone else the paintbrush. Paint bright and beautiful colors and you're life will become of what you have painted. If you paint dark and dull colors, you will find yourself wondering why you didn't add some color.
Chicago Library
- Color Theory
The ancient theory of color was that all colors were mixtures of darkness and light - black and white. Aristotle, for instance, held that dark crimson comes from the mixture of black with sunlight or firelight. It was Isaac Newton who first fully developed a theory of color based on a color wheel. Newton split white light into a spectrum by means of a prism and then wrapped the resulting spectrum around on itself to create the color wheel.

- Rhiannon
Rhiannon rings like a bell through the night, and wouldn't you love to love her? Takes to the sky like a bird in flight, and who will be her lover? All your life, you've never seen a woman taken by the wind. Would you stay if she promised you haven? Will you ever win?

- Systems Thinking
Systems thinking is a way to look at the world and understand how everything is interconnected. It is also about the idea of thinking about thinking. You get to know the mental models that you have built, how your actions are defined by your assumptions and beliefs, and so much more. If you have time, do comment with the place you are typing from, because I am really curious about the scope of this website. We are after all being connected by a shared interest in typing.
Michael Moorcock
- Stormbringer's Boon
He unstrapped his hell-sword and filing it on the bed of tumbled silks and furs. Wryly he thought back to earlier times when he had given in to despair and how those incidents which had engendered the mood seemed merely gay escapades in comparison to the task which now weighed on his mind. Though weary, he chose not to draw Stormbringer's stolen energy into himself.

- Quoting a pastor
A pastor said "companies should always be hiring followers of Christ. Because it is the Lord who led them to that employment since he knows that the employee is perfectly suited to the job with their current abilities and will thrive as he or she grows past their current capacity." My only question is how to decide that the interviewee is a true disciple or just the average Christian in that short hour? Colossians 3:23.

- Single Man Tear
A single man tear slips down his face. He shows emotion without a trace. He hides behind a mask so strong, were it that he could be wrong. I wish that he could see the way I see him. The perfect brother, a man without sin. 'Cause underneath the manly sheen, it is my brother, a boy named Dean.
Carl Jung
- Isolation
I truly believe at what Carl Jung said. "No matter how isolated you are and how lonely you feel, if you do your work truly and conscientiously, unknown friends will come and seek you."
Avenue Q
- For Now
Everyone's a little bit unsatisfied. Everyone goes 'round a bit empty inside. Take a breath, look around, and swallow your pride; for now. Nothing lasts. Life goes on full of surprises. You'll be faced with problems of all shapes and sizes. You're going to have to make a few compromises; for now. But only for now. Don't stress, relax. Let life roll off your back. Except for death and paying taxes, everything in life is only for now.

- The Deal
"What's the catch?" the boy asked, his heart beating just a bit too fast. The demon's grin widened, its eyes glinting with ancient, wicked glee. "Ah, young one," it purred, "the catch is not in the deal itself but in the price of understanding.
Kamala Harris
- How Did I Get Here?
I don't really know how I got here. I really don't know what's driving me anymore. I don't even know what I believe. I feel like I've become a puppet, to spout positions that are good for the party. I am a cog in the machine.

- Neovim btw
Calling all programmers who'd like to improve their editing skills and non-programmers who love keyboard shortcuts. If you're already using VSCode, you can try the Vim extension. To start, you can just learn about the motions instead of immediately jumping in and using Vim or Neovim as an editor. You can carry this skill with you everywhere you go!

- To think you would fall in love.
Approaching a girl, if only you'd thought about it sooner, you would've stepped forward, seized your chance at shooting your shot. Standing before perfection, you think to yourself, do I go for it? Before your brain settles on an answer, you doubt yourself and come back to the question again. Then the opportune moment slips further and further away, leaving you with your own thoughts to torture yourself with. An man's endless peril in society.
Sensei Wu
- Long before time had a name
Long before time had a name, the First Spinjitzu Master created Ninjago using four elemental weapons. But when he passed, a dark presence sought out to collect them all: Lord Garmadon. So I, Sensei Wu, his brother, sought out to find four ninja to collect them first.
