Off in Every Direction
rabbit-light:
We have said nothing but started anyway. It is not a beginning. On the phone we take solace. In the air we make faces. What does one do with photographs of past lovers? The obvious ones, the enlargements, can be discarded at the other end of anger & a bonfire. Off in every direction movement: bipedal, automotive, locomotive & sound: oral birds whose chipped words do not...
Oh shoot. Didn’t expect to have so much to say about Merlin. Then I realized I had much more to say from the way some plot lines are choppy as is some character development (especially Morgana and Gwen), to how much I loved little moments between Merlin and Arthur, Arthur and Gwen, etc.
Ok, I’ll shut up now. Sorry for the geeky outburst :)
Anonymous asked: So what do you think of Merlin, now that you've watched it all? Do you like Colin Morgan's portrayal of the character? Also, what is your favourite season thus far?

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 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...

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. And here I am unable to write anything decent, painting meaningless things over...
