"I have said for many years
that the only real difference between a philosophy
and a religion
is one or more gods...

I am learning more and more--
as I did when studying eastern religions in my twenties--
how powerful prayer can be,
and I don't mean because one god answers anyone's prayers.

It is the place it puts us in.
Focus.
Reflection.
Vertical communication.
Surrender (to the powers that be
and those that may or may not be).
And so:
Hope."
― Shellen Lubin

Lesson: not to surrender one's heart where it's not wanted."

"It's when we embrace social media that we submit our freedoms to someone else."
― Anthony T. Hincks

"In vain you beg, in vain you ache,
in vain you've opened your wrecked heart wide.
Perhaps in heaven the rainclouds quake
because we both have cried?

This pain of ours is without a wing.
The fainthearted cry can never fly.
Weep and pray! What god is coming
by the path of the stars up high?

Abandon yourself to the dust
and upon it fall in surrender.
Our great mother is ever so just
to every sinner who kisses her.

Within a Hell of godless emptiness
submit yourself ever more to sleep's spell.
All is a dream, all is nothingness:
the flower of the world is the asphodel.

(Trans. Michael Shindler)"
― Gabriele D'Annunzio

Without a Help rendered?
What's Love,
Without your Selfless Surrender?
What's Life,
Without Emotions..?
SIMPLY a Cheap borrowed Tender!"
― Somya Kedia
