when you have to make a hard decision, flip a coin
why?
because when that coin is in the air...
you suddenly know what you're hoping for.

"a world of dreams floats past you on a cloud you cannot touch "


"Nostalgia - it's delicate, but potent. Teddy told me that in Greek, "nostalgia" literally means "the pain from an old wound." It's a twinge in your heart far more powerful than memory alone. This device isn't a spaceship, it's a time machine. It goes backwards, and forwards... it takes us to a place where we ache to go again. It's not called the wheel, it's called the carousel. It let's us travel the way a child travels - around and around, and back home again, to a place where we know we are loved. "- Mad Men

Pain from an old wound. Happy but sad. It's always just that. That feeling. That internal gasp. And each day we live, we pile the memories up high, to only look at them again on a different day. "Only to look, never to touch" And this insanity will never stop. Until the day we die.
When we die...
