I have many strange habits. One is the habit of writing down what I read and like in books. It was given to me by my literature teacher. My notebook is full of notes. Sometimes I read my notes and even wonder how things would be forgotten if not handwritten words, sentences, paragraphs.
The inspiration and contemplation for coming Monday lie in Wilde’s words: “Most people live for love and admiration. But it is by love and admiration that we should live.”
And that’s the real truth that everyone understands in their own way.
We need love and recognition as air. This is especially true when scarcity for these feelings arose in childhood. But there is always a way out. I believe that every conscious person who recognizes this can change his scenario. You can start with loving yourself. With strong personal roots and a wide crown of leaves, blossoms, there is the power to shelter another one underneath them.
A light, prosperous, rich coming Monday to you.

When inspiration kicks in, I take notes. I don’t write what I read as much, but I tend to search for quotes to check if someone else thought what I thought before I did. ?
People can do crazy things to get the attention or admiration they crave, it’s insane, really.
i memorize lines of poetry to use later. I’ve done it since I was 12!
One truly needs to love themselves before they can love others. Self respect and love need to be taught at an early age. Too many people often put themselves last.
Living in love amidst the many problems in life can be a consolation.
