In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life:

It goes on

Thing not to worry about:

Don't worry about popular opinion

Don't worry about dolls

Don't worry about the past

Don't worry about the future

Don't worry about growing up

Don't worry about anybody getting ahead of you

Don't worry about triumph

Don't worry about failure unless it comes through your own fault

Don't worry about mosquitoes

Don't worry about flies

Don't worry about insects in general

Don't worry about boys

Don't worry about disappointments

Don't worry about pleasures

Don't worry about satisfactions

- F. Scott Fritzgerald, letter to his 11 year old daughter (1933)

you look well on me

Marilyn Monroe and her co-star Adele Jergens 

in "Ladies of he Chorus", 1948

                                                There's an ache

in your absence.

The gnawing void

where your hands should be.

I want you to unravel me

hollow me out

swallow the whole

watch me come apart

at my seams.

Fingernails raking

toes curling

shattered breathing.

Take every piece of me

and remake me.

Shape me anew.

                      I am forever altered                                                      by every breath you take.
                                                                        (EC)

and still you're in my way

I didn't want to kiss you goodbye, that was the trouble;
I wanted to kiss you goodnight. 
And there's a lot of difference. 

Ernest Hemingway

Matisse, Sevilla still life

I'll keep them still

So I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. 

And maybe we'll never know most of them.

Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower
