What happened lol

@R0 I'm making fun of Australia's senator lol for his narrow-mindedness in his statement of "The entire religion of Islam is simply the violent ideology of a sixth-century despot masquerading as a religious leader, which justifies endless war against anyone who opposes it and calls for the murder of unbelievers and apostates."

@R0 An educated person like him (Senator Fraser Anning) should not rely on personal judgements or rumors when commenting on a religion which is 14 centuries old and followed by more than 1.8 billion people. He should know terrorism has no nationality or religion!

His official statement addressing New Zealand Mosque Shooting could directly impact on 1.8 billion Muslims worldwide.

The 5th R could have been for Read. As in read this article lol~

@akki corrected! Thank you. =)

You’re welcome haha~

*claps* PREACH!

The happier you are, the kinder you will be. You are not helpless, you’re just wounded. There is a light, and you can see it.

Let it go
Let it roll right off your shoulder
Don't you know
The hardest part is over?
Let it in
Let your clarity define you
In the end
We will only just remember how it feels
Our lives are made
In these small hours
These little wonders
These twists and turns of fate
Time falls away
But these small hours
These small hours still remain

Let it slide
Let your troubles fall behind you
Let it shine
Until you feel it all around you
And I don't mind
If it's me you need to turn to
We'll get by
It's the heart that really matters in the end

Cortisol also curbs functions that would be nonessential or detrimental in a fight-or-flight situation. It alters immune system responses and suppresses the digestive system, the reproductive system and growth processes. This complex natural alarm system also communicates with regions of your brain that control mood, motivation and fear.

It really is a wonder~

(￣▽￣)/ cool!

Can we make ourselves care about them and consider them to be our own?
And not just be outraged when the victims of violence look like ourselves?
Can we find a way to reject hatred and heal the divisions between us?
We cannot afford to give up on each other or on our kids, even when they've given up on us.
We are all in this together!

In the long term, revenge and violence will not work against extremists.
Terrorists want us to huddle in our houses in fear, closing our door and our hearts.
They want us to tear open more wounds in our societies so that they can use them to spread their infection more widely.
They want us to become like them: intolerant, hateful, and cruel.

I want a society that includes and supports, rather than reject our kids.

Why some of our young people are attracted to this?

What really struck me is that so many of them- but so many of them have absent or abusive fathers. I also found men brutalized by racist violence, but who found a way to stop feeling like victims by becoming violent themselves. In fact, I found something, to my horror, that I recognized. I found the same feelings that I felt as a 17-year-old as I fled from Norway.

The same confusion, the same sorrow, the same feeling of being betrayed, and not belonging to anyone. The same feeling of being lost and torn between cultures. But I did not choose destruction. I could see that understanding is the answer, instead of violence. Seeing human beings, with all their virtues and flaws, instead of continuing the caricatures: the us and them, the villains and victims.

We know there is no honour in honour killings, however, the motivation for the crime is honour-related. We knew what was right, but the power of an honour system is so great that it only exists when people allow it to, not just within our families but within our communities.

We need to break that silence.

"My honour was their shame, so I let them go, I forgave them, and I started to live my life instead of putting it on hold."

...even without our families, there is a world out there, and you out there believe that this is happening, and it's happening to people who live in democracy.

They do not have the right to an education and independence. The privilege doesn't come being in Britain, those privileges were not my rights, my rights were taken away from me. Because I had a family who believed their rights trumped the rights of the country being Britain.

THIRTY: My mom always tells me that when I was a little kid, she never had to punish me for misbehaving because I would punish myself even worse.

I’d lock myself in my room and couldn’t forgive myself, as a five-year-old.

I realized that I do the same thing now when I feel I’ve made a mistake, whether it’s self-imposed exile or silencing myself and isolating. I’ve come to a realization that I need to be able to forgive myself for making the wrong choice, trusting the wrong person, or figuratively falling on my face in front of everyone. Step into the daylight and let it go.

Love and erotic love are two very different emotions – I would argue they are almost contrary. Love proper is to do with the other person: it is about the care, respect and understanding of that human other. Love like this grows, it cannot help it. The more of yourself you invest in another person, the more you receive. You become as one: their pain is your pain, their joy, yours too.

Erotic love, on the other hand, is about wanting something.

The French are right: you cannot desire what you already have.

I put the paper down and I thought, “That’s all very well, and true, but who would want a marriage like that?”

Totally agreed
