Claud

An avid collector of your hopes and worries, a romantic at heart.

She thanks her fairies, for blessing her with people who know compassion down to an art.

For accepting her for who she is, who never fails to turn up,

in times of need as well as happiness, or just there for a loving hug.

This is not an all or nothing world.

Sometimes we fail to remember that when we are going through a difficult situation when it feels easier to give up and put in the effort.

I am against taking to reasons or explanations to justify situations just because they are convenient. From my limited experience, the truth is hardly convenient, but it is important - even if they make us uneasy.

This world is neither Black nor White. It's all painted in shades of greys and the rules only make it easier for us to discern the tones of darkness because we cannot imagine a world that is without.

What if we start thinking in terms of shades instead of colours? What may be considered 'right' can be taken for granted as what is 'wrong'. I personally think the Romantics got it right afterall....life cannot be logical all the time. Sometimes it must be lived through feeling and emotion. After all, that's what our limbic system is for. Who says that our neocortex (rational) is necessarily of a higher function than our limbic system?

I think many people will agree that love is an emotion that can lead one to do irrational things - sometimes good, sometimes devastating, but always willing.
