Favorite Quote:
Memento Mori- It means that nothing lasts forever, no one is immortal, sooner or later you will die and things will come to an end. It also helps you realize that while you are living you should do the most with your life, live life to the fullest.


But can you see with wide open?

What can you see with eyes wide open?

The questions made me pause, because really, what do we see?

What do we hear?

Aren't we all just blind when it comes to the truth?

Deaf when words are spoken that we don't like?

Ignored when spoken by someone we hold with distaste?

We "choose" what we see

We "choose" what we hear

We are "voluntarily" dumb

Pathetic creatures that don't understand how to be open

Don't understand what it is to understand

What it means to accept...
