we must bring
our own light
to the
darkness.

nobody is going
to do it
for us.

as the young boys
ski
down the
slopes

as the fry cook
gets his last
paycheck

as dog chases
dog

as the chessmaster
loses more than
the game

we must bring
our own light
to the
darkness.

nobody is going
to do it
for us,

as the lonely
telephone
anybody
anywhere

as the great beast
trembles
in nightmare

as the final season
leaps into
focus

nobody is going
to do it
for us.

Love is what you need.. love is what you give..
Love is everything...

Must See It.. Must Smile ..A great short film..

Do you love smiles?

'Cause when people smile everything is better..

HopeΗ λογική εντοπίζεται στην καρδιά του παροξυσμού, εκεί όπου η τρέλα το σκάει τρέχοντας μέσα από τη διχοτομημένη ψυχή.
Ξέρω τον εαυτό μου.
Βλέπω τον εαυτό μου.
Η ζωή μου πιάστηκε σε έναν ιστό λογικής

Θὰ καθόμαστε ἀπέναντι καὶ θὰ κοιταζόμαστε στὰ μάτια

The Other End Of Love, The End We Love....and this is maybe the end of love...maybe by an expressionism view...
or maybe just when the end comes and somehow you feel alive ,strong and full of love..
whatever it is, it's strong,crazy and especially dedicated to my Death..
A piece of advice :take a deep breath and start reading...
'' And I want to play hide-and-seek
and give you my clothes
and tell you I like your shoes
and sit on the steps while you take a bath
and massage your neck
and kiss your feet
and hold your hand
and go for a meal
and not mind when you eat my food
and meet you at Rudy's
and talk about the day
and type up your letters
and carry your boxes
and laugh at your paranoia
and give you tapes you don't listen to
and watch great films
and watch terrible films
and complain about the radio
and take pictures of you when you're sleeping
and get up to fetch you coffee
and bagels and Danish
and go to Florent
and drink coffee at midnight
and have you steal my cigarettes
and never be able to find a match
and tell you a

Nevermind The Way ...''Askitiki'' by Nikos Kazantzakis
We come from a dark abyss΄
we end up in a dark abyss΄
we call the luminous interval Life.
As soon as we are born, the return begins ΄
simultaneously the start and the coming back΄
in every moment we die.
That's why many trumpeted : Goal of life is the death.
But as soon as we are born,
the effort to create begins too,
to compose,
to turn matter into life ΄
we are born in every moment.
That's why many trumpeted : Goal of ephemeral life is the immortality.
[...]
It is our duty to grasp that vision which can embrace and harmonize
these two enormous, timeless and indestructible forces΄
and with this vision to modulate our thinking and our action.
[...]
My heart flows.
I don't ask the beginning and the end of the world.
I follow his awesome pace and I am going.

I know now.
I hope for nothing,
I fear nothing,
I have been redeemed by the mind and the heart,
I climbed above,
I am free.
That's what I want.

''...I see many people die because they judge that life is not worth living.
I see others paradoxically gettin killed for the ideas or illusions that give them a reason for living (what is called a reason for living is also an excellent reason for dying).
I therefore conclude that the meaning of life is the most urgent of questions...''
From The Myth of Sisyphus by Albert Camus

Tips For Writing Flash Fiction
by Stephen R. Smith with excerpts by Kathy Kachelries
In order to improve as a writer, you need feedback. It's difficult to write something the size of a novel, and equally difficult to carve out the time required to read one and provide any sort of meaningful critique on it. This severely handicaps the feedback loop so important for the aspiring writer.

My little angels (Nordics x Mama Reader)

Okay I never saw any of these things with the Nordics so I thought I make one.
You were just about to be done with the dishes until your phone rang,reading the caller's name.You finish quickly to answer and was surprised the caller was Prussia aka Gilbert.'Didn't his phone break last week' you thought. "He-YO ____ whatcha doing?" a loud prussian ask, "Was about to go to bed before you killed my ears.." you reply sarcastically "äiti..." you turn towards the small voice to see the rest of the 'Nordic five' staring at you were big round eyes (minus Sweden and Norway).
"äiti, we can't sleep,can you sing us your special song?" you smile at the name 'special' seeing how the song was what your mother use too sing.You chuckled before putting the phone down and shooing the boys up the stairs.
"Vem var det mamma?" Berwald asks as he eyes the phone, you laugh at how protective he was of you

Poetry.com: What YOU can do!THIS ARTICLE IS NOT JUST RELEVANT TO WRITERS. Poetry.com also scams photographers and artists through websites like Picture.com – which is ALSO A SCAM.
As hopefully many of you know already, Poetry.com are scammers. They rip people off intentionally. (There is more information about Poetry.com in the links at the bottom of the news article.)
Recently, they have even attempted to invade deviantART. They’ve spammed people with notes and comments, doing whatever they can to encourage people to submit poems to their contest in which everyone seems to achieve at least second place. The supposed prize for this contest is 100k. Some people, no doubt, are going to fall for their scam because of it all of the spamming they have done on Poetry.com. They’re going to be so delighted that they’ve placed in the contest that they, or their parents, will give away money because of it.
That brings me to the point of this news article: Please, help heighten awareness of th

Music To My Ears (Shu Sakamaki x Mute!Reader)A/N: I was bored, so I decided, 'Huh, fanfiction... I can... I can write that.' So yeah e-e, this isn't really a planned thing, so sorry if I get a bit off topic. Enjoy my lil' drabble/one shot uvu. Depending on the response on this, I might write some more. I also apologize if Shu is out of character e-e'''.
Note: In this story, the reader, (you), is optionally mute. You get nervous every time you want to speak and simply can't, but when you're alone, you simply love to let your voice flow. *when Ayato calls you 'Maimu', he's calling you Mime, due to your silence, if you didn't already guess that e-e.
CLOTHES: Click me for outfit ref!!! The first outfit is your regular outfit, the second is PJ type clothes, and the last is your school outfit. uvu

Levi x Dying!Reader - More than anythingMy english is not the best, sorry. >.>
You always felt like nobody cares about you.
Hanji, Mikasa, Levi, Erwin and everyone else.
Nobody cares if you die.
Your parents had died when you were young and the two important person in your life, Eren and Sasha died too.
On top of that, they had been killed in front of your eyes.
You can not do anything about these painful feelings, but your pain doesn't care about you.
You smile and you are happy. Or rather, you acted like this, because you inside hurt like hell.
"Good morning, minna!"
" 'morning, (Name)!" Hanji shouted to you with smile on her face.
"Good day, (Name)." Erwin said.
"Tch. sit down and eat breakfast, brat." Levi responded.
"We are going outside the walls this day afternoon. Are you ready, guys?" Erwin asked.
"Of course, Sir!" You said heatedly.
*Shit. I completely forgot. I have a bad feeling about this...*

~Time skip for afternoon, because why not, sorry. 3: ~
You guys are already

PE Prose Basics: Revise and EditProse Basics Week is winding down now and hopefully you've learned a lot from the brilliant past articles. But, there's more to writing than just getting that first draft done, isn't there? That's where the next big crucial step comes in: revision.
The Art of Revising:

Revision is such a huge topic to cover, especially since there are many ways to go about it. You can do self-edits, which always are a good first step, or you can get outside revisions from peers. Both are good ideas to really get your work to be top notch. But, the big thing to remember is that there's more to just editing your work than cleaning up a few spelling and grammar mistakes. Revising also includes corrections to sentence flow, scenes, and sometimes overall plot. So, before we jump into some ways to edit, here are a few different terms of methods of editing that may be handy to know-- especially if you're asking a peer to help you with revisions.

"Come on (y/n)! Please?", Hanji pleaded.
"W-what? To be honest, I have no idea what you're talking about.", you said quietly.
"You know. . . That game! Five Nights At Freddy's!", Sasha answered back with a smile.
"We want you to play it!" "Okay. But, what is it?", you asked.
