A man:
I want happiness.
Buddha:
First remove "I," that's ego, then remove "want," that's desire. See? Now you are left with happiness.

The Bible teaches that woman brought sin and death into the world, that she precipitated the fall of the race, that she was arraigned before the judgment seat of Heaven, tried, condemned, and sentenced. Marriage for her was to be a condition of bondage, maternity a period of suffering and anguish, and in silence and subjection, she was to play the role of a dependant on man’s bounty for all her material wants, and for all the information she might desire. … Here is the Bible position of woman briefly summed up.

this picture should have more then the amounts of notes it has, this shows us that not ever thing is “picture perfect” and that behind that smile and those eyes there is fear . So i beg you to please reblog this instead of a pair of shoes, someone smoking a blunt, and clothes … because this picture is literally worth 1,000 words
This is insanely powerful.

“Lies I’ve Told My 3 Year Old Recently”
Raul Gutierrez
Trees talk to each other at night.
All fish are named either Lorna or Jack.
Before your eyeballs fall out from watching too much TV, they get very loose.
Tiny bears live in drain pipes.
If you are very very quiet…
What they did not want you to ever find out is that your generation, the generation born between 1980-1995, actually outnumbers the Baby Boomers. They knew that if you ever turned your eye towards political reform, you could change the world. They tried to keep you sated on vapid television shows and vapid music. They cut off your education and fed you brain candy. They took away your music and gave you Top Ten pop stations. They cut off your art and replaced it with endless reality shows for you to plug into, hoping you would sit quietly by as they ran the world. We as a society are only as strong as our weakest link. Give ‘em hell, kids.
This really makes my brain explode

Sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think, I’m not going to make it- but you laugh inside remembering all the times you’ve felt that way.

The 21st century and love don’t get along too well.
I’m tired of getting asked out through facebook messages or guys flirting through texting.
I want something tangible, but this generation is only airwaves and nano communication.

Sadly, children’s passion for thinking often ends when they encounter a world that seeks to educate them for conformity and obedience only.
