Image
My mission, should I choose to accept it, is to find peace with exactly who and what I am. To take pride in my thoughts, my appearance, my talents, my flaws and to stop this incessant worrying that I can’t be loved as I am.

Memory is a great betrayer.
Anais Nin
Image
I am lonely, yet not everybody will do. I don't know why, some people fill the gaps and others emphasize my loneliness. In reality those who satisfy me are those who simply allow me to live with my ''idea of them.
Anais Nin
Image
My ideas usually come not at my desk writing but in the midst of living.
Anais Nin
Image
No one should be forced to carry the unfulfilled self of another.
Anais Nin
Image
The richest source of creation is feeling, followed by a vision of its meaning.
Anais Nin
Image
All of my creation is an effort to weave a web of connection with the world: I am always weaving it because it was once broken.

My diary seems to keep me whole.
