No feelings, however profound, ever bring us nearer to God or God to us. In the same way, no lack of feelings can take us away from God. When all impressions fail, leaving us in "dryness, darkness, and desolation," we should not even for a moment think that God is far from us. Nothing can separate us from the love that holds us in being, least of all our feelings. This is why St John of the Cross says that God is nearest to us when we are least aware of it.

(Chris E. W. Green)

I wish there was a way to know you’re in the good old days before you’ve actually left them.

(Andy Bernard, The Office)

All of humanity's problems stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone.

(Pascal)

Life doesn’t make sense

It bends and breaks you

You numb yourself but

This lack of feeling only hurts

 

Feeling is lost

There is no joy without pain

There is no need for hope

Without darkness

 

Innocence is lost

To be gained once more

To be a child is to be in awe

And that brings sense to life again

 

(Innocence)
