Don’t aim at success. The more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one’s personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one’s surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long-run—in the long-run, I say!—success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think about it.Viktor E Frankl, Man’s Search For Meaning (via fuckyeahyoga)

I’m in love with your honor
I’m in love with your cheeks.

You’re my backbone,
you’re my cornerstone,
you’re my crutch when my legs
stop moving, you’re my head start,
you’re my rugged heart, you’re the pulse
that I’ve always needed,
like a drum, baby, don’t stop beating,
like a drum, baby, don’t stop beating,
like a drum, baby, don’t stop beating,
like a drum, my heart never stops beating
for you.
