I'm in a poetry mood I guess 💀 I loved Shel Silverstein's books since I was a little kid and still do. I still collect his books so I wanted to share some of my favorite poems from his books :) He's a children's author but some of his poems really hit deep.
“I’d rather be around a passionate nerd than a non-passionate cool person. Because if you lack passion, your soul is diminishing by the second. You have to be passionate about something. Call it obsessed or whatever you want, but be obsessed about something. Obsessed people care. I’m passionate about so many things, it becomes an issue at certain points, but at least you have the ability to feel that much about something.”

“To love a person is to see all of their magic, and to remind them of it when they have forgotten.”

“I try to be as fearless as possible. I don’t always succeed, but I like to think I try.”

“You are the universe, expressing itself as a human for a little while.”
— Eckhart Tolle
