Send me to the Moon Today, I got my plant back.
Georgia sits on my desk, smiling happily at me, leaves perking up with each passing moment, and I can almost feel the oxygen he is creating for me to breath. I appreciate the simply existence he has. He remembers nothing about yesterday, thinks only of making it to tomorrow, and is dependent solely on me and the love, food, and shelter I provide him. I like to try and put myself in his position at times, wondering how I compare to him, and whether I can in any way alter my existence to be more...plantlike..because Georgio never complains, never looses sleep over a thought about the beginning of time, never takes more than he needs or destroys a plot of land for his own selfish uses. One book I just found in my roommates closet is about the detrimental fate of humanity; seeing as humans, in all of history, are the only species who break the laws of existence and take more than they need and don't provide anything back to the chain of life. Because of this, we will die off...This doesn't make me sad though because I do not control humanity. I control myself, so now I am put at step one; deciding where I will go with my life so that I can pull myself out of a downword spiral I could so easily follow.

I've been reading alot ( this happens when I go back to school after such a long mental vacation called "summer"). These last few days, however, I think I have been made into a dry washcloth by certain circumstances of change and therefore every quote hits me like a fresh sip of water I can't let go of. For a few

"The weakest soul, knowing its own weakness, and believing this truth-that strength can only be developed by effort and practice- will at once begin to exert itself, and , adding effort to effort, patience to patience, and strength to strength, will never cease to develop, and will at lsat grow divinely strong"

"To put away aimlessness and weakness, nad to begin to think wityh purpose, is to enter the ranks of those strong ones who only recognize failure as one of the pathways to attainment, who make all conditions serve them, and who think strongly, attempt fearlessly, and accomplish masterfully"
~As You Think by James Allen~

"Dance changes with every body that dances: it changes with the time, the country, even the weather; it does not have one history but many"
~Rhonda Graur, MOvement and Dance are Universal
"All nature in one ball, we find;
THe water dances to the wind:
The sea itself, at night and noon
Rises and capers to the moon;
The moon around the earth does treat
A Chesire round in buxom red;
The earth and plants round the run dance;
Not will their dance be done
Till nature in one mass is blended;
Then may we say, the ball is ended."
~Hindu philosophy

Here's a little doodle page of the last quote...
