this blog has gone to shit since I discovered tumblr. fuck it.

THINK.

“Consider again that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “supreme leader”, every “superstar,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.

Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot.

Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.

Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.

It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. It underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the only home we’ve ever known, the pale blue dot”

You saw my morals where? Oh. Out the window.

I'm pretty sure I won't be able to look you in the face, without that sinking feeling of regret in my stomach, for quite a while.

Good thing we don't see each other often.

I'm sorry.

The vodka told me that it was okay.

you know you don't deserve as many girls as you get.

Three times

and every time it's longer. I hate this.

I want to look again.

J'ai deux chiens.

What are you thinking behind those brown doe eyes?

You must see the world in a completely different way

But when your eyes look into mine, what is that?

Love, Gratitude, Loyalty?

or

Fear, Oppression and Contempt?

Oh I don't know young pup

But you are so much more than just an animal.

You understand emotions, vocal tones, laughter and tears

You're family.

Swimming into the galaxy

Okay so I didn't take this, but it's like the best double exposure I've seen.
