348/365 - The Promise of Life (Suzanne Collins: Hunger Games)

The Bright Yellow that means Rebirth 
instead of Destruction. 

The Promise that life can Go on,

That it can be Good Again.”

347/365 - Imagining the Future (John Green)


“Imagining the future is a kind of nostalgia. (...) 

You spend your whole life stuck in the labyrinth, 
thinking about how you'll escape it one day,
 and how awesome it will be,
 and imagining that future keeps you going, 
but you never do it. 

You just use the future to escape the present.”
 
- John Green
(Looking for Alaska)
