that moment when everything makes sense

Sitting alone at a bench with my laptop on my thighs and feeling the warmth transfer to my skin as I am charging it, as the cold wind makes me shiver and brings forth the smell of burning pine needles and as I look to my right the warmth of the sun as it is setting, these are those moments where everything just makes perfect sense. This is home, this is what I will always remember and what I will always come back to. The sound of accelerating cars and jeepneys as they go up this hill is like a hymn already, without them echoing in pillars and walls of our college this time of day it will never be the same.

spiritualinspiration: ” …Keep each other’s spirits up so that no one falls behind or drops out” (Ephesians 6:18, The Message). It’s easy to be someone’s friend when they’ve got it all together, when they’re walking in blessing and prosperity. Anybody can believe in people after they’re successful, after they graduate, after they’re promoted, after they get their big break. But, people need our support the most before they get their breakthrough. They need us to look past their faults and failures and see their potential. Most times, people just need a little “push” of encouragement to keep them moving forward. We should always put ourselves in the other person’s shoes and see things from their perspective. You may have some good advice that could save them a lot of heartache and pain. Don’t keep it to yourself. Pick up the phone. Help them win. Maybe you excelled in a college course that they’re struggling in. Don’t sit back and think, “Too bad. They’ve got to learn it the hard way.” No, you are the hands and feet of Jesus. When you help others rise higher, you are fulfilling His mission. Today, share your love, support and encouragement. Invest life in others, see their potential, and together, you’ll rise higher into the blessing God has for you!

So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they’re busy doing things they think are important. This is because they’re chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.
— Mitch Albom (via danseurs)

bitchville: Japanese artist Iori Tomita transforms the scientific technique of preserving and dying organisms into an art form with this series entitled New World Transparent Specimens. The images give us an breathtaking look at the inner workings of underwater life. The process Tomita goes through is extremely extensive. First, he removes the scales and skin that have been preserved in formaldehyde. He then soaks the creatures in a stain that dyes the cartilage blue. Tomita uses a digestive enzyme called trypsin, along with a host of other chemicals, to break down the proteins and muscles, halting the process just at the moment they become transparent. The bones are stained with red dye, and the specimen is preserved in a jar of glycerin. From start to finish, the entire production takes about five months to a year. http://www.shinsekai-th.com/en/photo.php

Everyone, please take a few seconds to spread the message and make people care about animal cruelty. Although animals are and will continue to be killed for materials and food, there’s no need to go about it in this way, especially for trivialities like fur coats, ivory carvings, and “tradition”. If humanity isn’t capable of respecting nature, how then can we expect to treat ourselves? Nobody could justify the amount of pain and trauma caused just to gain scraps of colored paper. Do your part.
