“Study while others are sleeping; work while others are loafing; prepare while others are playing; and dream while others are wishing.”

William Arthur Ward  (via misiuq)

“ I’ve noticed something about people who make a difference in the world: They hold the unshakable conviction that individuals are extremely important, that every life matters. They get excited over one smile. They are willing to feed one stomach, educate one mind, and treat one wound. They aren’t determined to revolutionize the world all at once; they’re satisfied with small changes. Over time, though, the small changes add up. Sometimes they even transform cities and nations, and yes, the world. ”

{Feed one stomach, educate one mind, treat one wound—all of which happened today. Times eighteen. The perks of preschool.}

“You are flowers in my stomach.
Cutting me open nightly, blooming through the cracks of the ribs.
I only want to be the sun for you.”
