decaying-organic-matter asked: Bravery has nothing to do with being fearless. Whatsoever. Bravery has everything to do with overcoming the obstacle of fear. If you weren't scared to begin with, then what's so remarkable about doing it? Fear comes in different shapes and different sizes, and you don't always overcome that fear. Sometimes, just the very act f recognizing fear takes a certain level of bravery. You...

It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost." ~Arthur Ashe. / Being brave can mean loving someone else. It means creating things. It means being honest and wearing your heart on your sleeve, as the saying goes. It means being able to look at things from a perspective outside...

Anonymous asked: Hello MJ. First of all: I'm in love with your blog, you as a person, your personality and view on the world. When that's said, I need some help. Lately I've been feeling like there's no life left to live in this world. I'm currently not living, in some wierd and deeply depressing way. I feel like I'm nothing. Like I'm just a void thing floating around in a dark...

At first I thought he was asking me something like the time, or directions so I pulled out one of my earphone, but no he was talking about his job and whatever else. I thought he...

I think I want it too much. Or not enough. Or in the wrong way. I would love so much to make a living of painting pictures, and pasting papers together and writing words into stories. I would so love it. But the more I think about it the more pressure there is on my lungs until I can’t breathe and grow anymore.
