“I would like to step out of my heart and go walking beneath the enormous sky.”

— The Selected Poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke, ‘Lament’ tr. Stephen Mitchell

Don’t succumb to chaos, chase dreams not people. Get out of controversies, you have no guilt that’s been implanted in you from the moment you were born.

No sucumbas al caos, persigue sueños no a personas. Salte de las controversias, no tienes ninguna culpa que te han implantado, desde el momento que naciste.
