GOD & HUMANITY
“Once God and the human being had a dialogue.
“The human being said to God: ‘it’s not fair that you are always God and I am always the human being. If we are really partners, I should get a chance to be God, and You should be the human being.’
“And God said: ‘I’m afraid you won’t be able to handle it.’ The the human being, who is such a fine seducer, seduced God in a weak moment and God said, ‘Okay.’
And both of them went crazy- God because God is now finite with Gods infinitude, and the human being is now infinite within finity! They have been trying to meet again, to switch back, ever since.”
-Eli Wiesel
I might’ve laughed a little too loud when I read this

Quote
This is what you shall do: Love the earth and sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to every one that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God, have patience and indulgence toward the people, take off your hat to nothing known or unknown or to any man or number of men, go freely with powerful uneducated persons and with the young and with the mothers of families, read these leaves in the open air every season of every year of your life, reexamine all you have been told at school or church or in any book, dismiss whatever insults your own soul, and your very flesh shall be a great poem and have the richest fluency not only in its words but in the silent lines of its lips and face and between the lashes of your eyes and in every motion and joint of your body
Walt Whitman, Preface to Leaves of Grass

MLK Day
"Just as Socrates felt that it was necessary to create a tension in the mind so that individuals could rise from the bondage of myths and half-truths to the unfettered realm of creative analysis and objective appraisal, so must we see the need for nonviolent gadflies to create the kind of tension in society that will help men rise from the dark depths of prejudice and racism to the majestic heights of understanding and brotherhood."
– Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

When you are trying so desperately to fix yourself and keep yourself together but you fall and back into the same old way again. Feeling trapped not knowing how you are gonna pull yourself up again after the countless times you have pulled yourself up time and time again from dark places. You fear you have no strength to keep fighting, you feel as if what’s the point? Your mind is clouded and you can’t see things clearly again they are blurred and you are back to a state of sleep walking through life again. You lie down feeling nothing, you are empty, you are not sad, or angry just a shell of a person wondering why you have even fallen back into the same old pattern again? It’s a security blanket, you have grown so attached to the painfully numb feeling that feeling anything else sends you into a panic you are uncomfortable by it thus you run back to the only thing that feels safe and secure so you numb yourself again in order to protect yourself from any threats even if they just foreign feelings. They scare you because you aren’t use to them, you’ve barely experienced them. Thus you are trapped in a cycle of wanting to fix yourself and grow but you crack slowly or all at once. Beating yourself up for falling back to old ways again. You can either sink or swim some choose to sink because they are tired of constantly fighting with themselves every damn day, they are exhausted from fighting their mind.

need Crowley in danger from Heaven, need Aziraphale stepping in front of Crowley, need the Guardian of the Eastern Gate, the protector of earth and humans, to protect his world, need the angel to shield the demon, need him to be ready to die for him but so much more willing to live, need Aziraphale to save him, need him to face Heaven and walk backwards into hell, to stand between Heaven and Crowley and choose Crowley, without a doubt and without hesitation
(because he might have chosen heaven when they offered him Crowley's supposed salvation, but as soon as they threaten Crowley's existence the choice will be so SO easy)
