"Life was immeasurably better once I forced myself to stop taking it seriously."
Hunter S. Thompson (via nirvikalpa)
"1. Never obey anyone’s command unless it is coming from within you also.
2. There is no god other than life itself.
3. Truth is within you, do not search for it elsewhere.
4. Love is prayer.
