“So many people glorify and romanticize “busy”. I do not. I value purpose. I believe in resting in reason and moving in passion. If you’re always busy/moving, you will miss important details. I like the mountain. Still, but when it moves lands shift and earth quakes.”

Perfect example of why you shouldn’t be condemning girls/women on their choice of clothing, but teaching your son how to be a respectable person.

takingstockofwhatmattersmost:

her kisses were hungry
and left me emaciated and gaunt
my bones brittle
the marrow dripping from her lower lip
my skin, dry, blew like the powdered foundation
she brushed on her pale skin
she consumed me
and i
i made her more beautiful

“

Abortion seems to be the only medical procedure that people want to deny you based on how you got in that situation.

Drove drunk, got in an accident and need an organ transplant? No problem.

Messing around with a gun, accidentally shoot yourself in the leg and need surgery? Of course.

Smoke tobacco for most of your life and need treatment for lung cancer? Yep.

Climb a tree, fall out and break your leg? We’ll fix that right up.

Have sex and get pregnant when you don’t want to be? YOU GOT YOURSELF INTO THIS SITUATION AND YOU DESERVE NO MEDICAL HELP OR COMPASSION! THIS IS YOUR FAULT AND YOU WILL DEAL WITH THE CONSEQUENCES!
