“There comes a time in everyone's life,
When we can't see the passage of answers.
In every journey there is darkness and there is light,
There is fear and there is hope.

We often forget that we are the light which illuminates our whole being,
Serenity arrives when we are able to recognise and accept ourselves in an ever changing world,
Where we welcome and cherish our rarity,
This is one of the rarest and most treasured gifts we will find in this lifetime.”

But you can realise when you’re feeling stuck and take a small step in a different direction.

It’s more than enough to make your life a gentle pursuit of love, joy, and curiosity.”

― Viv Albertine, Clothes, Clothes, Clothes. Music, Music, Music. Boys, Boys, Boys
