When we’re young our strongest urge is to hold on as tight as we can, even if the love we have starts to hurt us. Please know that this anguish you feel is a beautiful thing, and it means that you are alive with a soul. So many people in this world have dark souls, they don’t feel the love that you do, they only feel the need to manipulate and use others around them for their own gain. All you need to know is this. No matter how dark it may seem, no matter how much you feel that the earth may as well explode without her/him, you are a being of love. And whether you like it or not, you will get so many opportunities to love someone else. And by god how lucky you are.

it seems affront to common sense that we can describe the world as patterns of relationships without needing to ask what “stuff” these patterns are “made of.” For when the scientist investigates matter or stuff, he describes what he finds in terms of structured pattern. when one comes to think of it, what other terms could he use? The sensation of stuff arises only when we are confronted with patterns so confused or so closely knit that we cannot make them out. To the naked eye a distant galaxy looks like a solid star and a piece of steel like a continuous and impenetrable mass of matter. But when we change the level of magnification, the galaxy assumes the clear structure of a spiral nebula and the piece of steel turns out to be a system of electrical impulses whirling in relatively vast spaces. The idea of stuff expresses no more than the experience of coming to a limit at which our sense or our instruments are not fine enough to make out the pattern.
