The world is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper.

One from within, one from... without

Love was undoubtedly one of the things capable of changing a person's whole life, from one moment to the next. But there was the other side of the coin, the second thing that could make a human being take a totally different course from the one he or she had planned; and that was called despair. Yes, perhaps love really could transform someone, but despair did the job more quickly. - Paolo Coelho, Eleven Minutes

Despair means to find no rest,
to find no peace,
to find no hope,
to find no way out.
