Midway upon the journey of our life,Dante Alighieri, Inferno, from the Divine Comedy (via liquidnight)
I found myself within a forest dark,
For the straight foreward pathway had been lost.

I felt like lying down by the side of the trail and remembering it all. The woods do that to you, they always look familiar, long lost, like the face of a long-dead relative, like an old dream, like a piece of forgotten song drifting across the water, most of all like golden eternities of past childhood or past manhood and all the living and the dying and the heartbreak that went on a million years ago and the clouds as they pass overhead seem to testify (by their own lonesome familiarity) to this feeling. Ecstasy, even, I felt, with flashes of sudden remembrance, and feeling sweaty and drowsy I felt like sleeping and dreaming in the grass.Jack Kerouac, The Dharma Bums (via liquidnight)

My life isn't all that interesting as far as I'm concerned. I'm 20, smart, artistic, outgoing, and a horrible dancer. I like boys and riding on subways, which my hometown sadly lacks. I'm in it for life, and whatever anyone else thinks, I'm happy being me. But that's not weird, right?
