“‎”In every story, when things are at their most dire, an angel comes and helps the hero.”
“But this is no story,” replied my father.
“Of course it isn’t. This is life. In real life you get more than one angel. You get two or three. Hell, you get an army of angels.” —The Hakawati; Rabih Alameddine

“The church should be revolutionizing the world towards freedom. The mistake has been of equating revolution with Stalinism or Maoism and thinking that revolution can only be brought about at the end of a gun. Power can be won in this way, but never freedom.” —Jacques Ellul (via fortunateson)

Facts now that I'm (almost) 23.

I still wear a child’s backpack unapologetically.
I somehow want to both run away and settle in at the same time.
My room is almost always extremely messy or impeccably clean.
80% of my food intake comes from a box.
Bed inventory: Stuffed Animal? CHECK. Security Blanket? CHECK. Boy in various states of undress? Certainly not consistently.
My budgeting skills are off the chain.
I used to write in a journal all the time…I don’t think I’ve picked one up in months.
Sometimes I’d rather watch Netflix for hours than socialize.
I like being read to and I like to read to others; I think it’s a very beautiful, intimate experience.
Bored with this list. Bored with 22. Bored with loads of things. And yet, time is passing too quickly.

...Figures, eh?
