Uplifting quotes & Inspiring Thoughts

Thermodynamic miracles... events with odds against so astronomical they're effectively impossible, like oxygen spontaneously becoming gold. I long to observe such a thing.
And yet, in each human coupling, a thousand million sperm vie for a single egg. Multiply those odds by countless generations, against the odds of your ancestors being alive; meeting; siring this precise son; that exact daughter... Until your mother loves a man she has every reason to hate, and of that union, of the thousand million children competing for fertilization, it was you, only you, that emerged. To distill so specific a form from that chaos of improbability, like turning air to gold... that is the crowning unlikelihood. The thermodynamic miracle.

But...if me, my birth, if that's a thermodynamic miracle... I mean, you could say that about anybody in the world!.

Yes. Anybody in the world. ..But the world is so full of people, so crowded with these miracles that they become commonplace and we forget... I forget. We gaze continually at the world and it grows dull in our perceptions. Yet seen from the another's vantage point. As if new, it may still take our breath away. Come...dry your eyes. For you are life, rarer than a quark and unpredictable beyond the dreams of Heisenberg; the clay in which the forces that shape all things leave their fingerprints most clearly. Dry your eyes... and let's go home.

― Alan Moore, Watchmen

Hope is a function of struggle

You're not alone because we're all struggling with something...

"If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means PAINT, and that voice will be silenced." ~ Vincent van Gogh

"They may not need me; yet they might. I'll let my head be just in sight; a smile as small as mine might be precisely their necessity."
~ Emily Dickinson

Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply.

Stephen R. Covey

My mom is driving me insane. I feel like relapsing. But I don't want to

it doesn't matter if you put no effort or a lot into how you look but do not tell people that they need to look better because that is who they are
