We all spend our lives telling stories. About this, about that, about people. Some stories bring us laughter, sometimes they bring us tears. But isn't that what a great story does? Makes us feel? D. Hoffman

Only one thing remains infinitely fascinating to me: the mystery of moods. To be master of these moods is exquisite, to be mastered by them more exquisite still. Sometimes I think that the artistic life is a long and lovely suicide, and am not sorry that it is so. And much of this I fancy you yourself have felt: much also remains for you to feel. There is an unknown land full of strange flowers and subtle perfumes, a land of which it is joy of all joys to dream, a land where all things are perfect and poisonous.

We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edge of print. It gave us more freedom.
We lived in the gaps between the stories.

—Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale (via hannahgraceful)

This made me chuckle.. superb excuse for not doing work.

One of the loveliest stories I have read about such a beautiful little girl, who is now a model, proving that no disability or the way we look should hold us back from living life to the fullest.
