La insoportable levedad del ser

Es posible que no seamos capaces de amar precisamente porque deseamos ser amados, porque queremos que el otro nos dé algo (amor), en lugar de aproximarnos a él sin exigencias y querer sólo su mera presencia. 

La insoportable levedad del ser 

Milan Kundera 

I'm such a coward

I'm the girl who is always there for you
Who cares more about you than for anybody else.
I'm the girl who would do anything for you.
I'm the one who is hurt a little every day, pretending to be comfortable being only "a friend"
I'm the one whose heart stops whenever you smile.
I'm who would give anything to be with you (I mean WITH YOU) and would love you (I mean, loves you) like no one else on earth.


I don't dare to tell you this... I'm such a coward

"Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show even the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worst, returned. But one thing about human beings puzzles me the most is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly within."
Sigmund Freud

Just keep walking

"Each time he took a walk, he felt as though he were leaving himself behind, and by giving himself up to the movement of the streets, by reducing himself to a seeing eye, he was able to escape the obligation to think, and this, more than anything else, brought him a measure of peace, a salutary emptiness within...By wandering aimlessly, all places became equal and it no longer mattered where he was. On his best walks he was able to feel that he was nowhere. And this, finally was all he ever asked of things: to be nowhere."

- Paul Auster. The New York Trilogy - "City of Glass"

Alegría

La felicidad, comparada con la alegría, es como una pequeña lámpara eléctrica frente al sol. La felicidad siempre tiene un objeto, se es feliz por algo, es un sentimiento cuya existencia depende del exterior. Pero la alegría no tiene un objeto. Te posee sin ninguna razón aparente, en su ser se parece al sol, arde gracias a la combustión de su propio corazón.

Susana Tamaro

Soledad

"Y el ser humano puede soportar una semana de sed, dos semanas de hambre, muchos años sin techo, pero no puede soportar la soledad. Es la peor de todas las torturas, de todos los sufrimientos."

-Once minutos Paulo Coelho
