Woke up from a dream where I straight-up failed my Chinese final, and then that somehow transitioned to where I was in Paris with Lauren and Andrew for an overnight layover or something, and we were on Rue de Charonne or Avenue Ledru-Rollin in the 11th arrondissment at some small restaurant, just us and the restaurant owner (although now I don’t remember seeing him in the dream come to think of it but I just knew he was there), the architecture on the street was some weird blend of Parisian and Moroccan, and whatever hour in the late afternoon was golden hour with that sunlight and I was utterly blissful oh fuck I’m in love with a city

Life has a gap in it, it just does. You don’t go crazy trying to fill it.

‎Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore. We have seen the future, and the future is ours.

Plato’s lesson on love and marriage

One day, Plato asked his teacher, “What is love? How can I find it?”
His teacher answered, “There is a vast wheat field in front. Walk forward without turning back, and pick only one stalk. If you find the most magnificent stalk, then you have found love.”

Plato walked forward, and before long, he returned with empty hands, having picked nothing.
His teacher asked, “Why did you not pick any stalk?”
Plato answered, “Because I could only pick once, and yet I could not turn back. I did find the most magnificent stalk, but did not know if there were any better ones ahead, so I did not pick it. As I walked further, the stalks that I saw were not as good as the earlier one, so I did not pick any in the end. “

His teacher then said, “And that is love.”

On another day, Plato asked his teacher, “What is marriage? How can I find it?”
His teacher answered, “There is a thriving forest in front. Walk forward without turning back, and chop down only one tree. If you find the tallest tree, then you have found marriage.”

Plato walked forward, and before long, he returned with a tree. The tree was not thriving, and it was not tall either. It was only an ordinary tree.
His teacher asked, “Why did you chop down such an ordinary tree?”
Plato answered, “Because of my previous experience. I walked halfway through the forest, but returned with empty hands. This time, I saw this tree, and I felt that it was not bad, so I chopped it down and brought it back. I did not want to miss the opportunity.”

His teacher then said, “And that is marriage.”
