"If I were to wish for anything, I should not wish for wealth and power, but for the passionate sense of the potential, for the eye which, ever young and ardent, sees the possible. Pleasure disappoints, possibility never. And what wine is so sparkling, what so fragrant, what so intoxicating, as possibility!"
— Søren Kierkegaard (via vanished)
"No man has the right to dictate what other men should perceive, create or produce, but all should be encouraged to reveal themselves, their perceptions and emotions, and to build confidence in the creative spirit."
— Ansel Adams (via vanished)
"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."
— Ralph Waldo Emerson (via forgivethelost)

I love tea. Not because of the sweet flavor, pleasant odor, or the warm feeling in your stomach it brings after drinking a cup, but rather the lifestyle that is associated with it. It’s about taking a few moments out of a crazy day to hit the pause button and just relax. It’s about pondering unanswerable questions, and it’s about reflecting on the day’s absurdities. Tea is about appreciating what you have and loving life. So when I say I love tea, it’s more than just a beverage preference, it’s about embracing certain ideals and taking on an attitude of positivity.
