“You can try and hold me back. Build your damn walls, pack sandbags along the edges and yell at the clouds and the rain and the sky to stop.

But I will not relent. I will reach you. Because I am the sea. And I will continue to love you no matter what.”Tumblr (3.0; @thisoldworld)http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/“The true quality of life is not related to how much you can get done, but to how deeply you enjoy your day-to-day experience of simply existing.”<br/><br/> - <em>(via <a href="http://givesgoodface.tumblr.com/" class="tumblr_blog">givesgoodface</a>)</em>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/51155049385http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/51155049385Thu, 23 May 2013 12:30:43 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/8d23501d85419e1b8194c3e9b34375c3/tumblr_mmt1j1of4s1sn5aavo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/51155015161http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/51155015161Thu, 23 May 2013 12:30:08 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/58840a8ef66202913bac83fff7479627/tumblr_mms1qjDuBV1r5zq6ao1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501671551http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501671551Wed, 15 May 2013 12:07:00 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/9bf2abf44bbb94c293b449e3f58d8d8c/tumblr_mmjj0e1nJ21qz4d4bo1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501661050http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501661050Wed, 15 May 2013 12:06:47 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/e72d85f37de4171cea868fd11c9541a5/tumblr_mm0lxmvZZ81rs8w78o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501461215http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501461215Wed, 15 May 2013 12:02:51 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/489b670052bdb24294aed456abd6746d/tumblr_mmkb05WMzo1qz4d4bo1_400.png"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501425234http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501425234Wed, 15 May 2013 12:02:12 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/a0ef554ac7d66d8381c9143bf1dae5c8/tumblr_mmkb0cL0wL1qz4d4bo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501405937http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501405937Wed, 15 May 2013 12:01:51 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/424a58a6d4a0ce4401d311110e046e24/tumblr_mmf33w7FV51qax99wo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://beben-eleben.tumblr.com/post/50415502866/there-once-was-a-young-boy-with-a-very-bad-temper">beben-eleben</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>There once was a young boy with a very bad temper. The boy’s father wanted to teach him a lesson, so he gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper he must hammer a nail into their wooden fence.</p> <p><span>On the first day of this lesson, the little boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. He was really mad!</span></p> <p><span>Over the course of the next few weeks, the little boy began to control his temper, so the number of nails that were hammered into the fence dramatically decreased.</span></p> <p><span>It wasn’t long before the little boy discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.</span></p> <p><span>Then, the day finally came when the little boy didn’t lose his temper even once, and he became so proud of himself, he couldn’t wait to tell his father.</span></p> <p><span>Pleased, his father suggested that he now pull out one nail for each day that he could hold his temper.</span></p> <p><span>Several weeks went by and the day finally came when the young boy was able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.</span></p> <p><span>Very gently, the father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence.</span></p> <p><span>“You have done very well, my son,” he smiled, “but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same.”</span></p> <p><span>The little boy listened carefully as his father continued to speak.</span></p> <p><span>“When you say things in anger, they leave permanent scars just like these. And no matter how many times you say you’re sorry, the wounds will still be there.”</span></p> </blockquote>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501371452http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501371452Wed, 15 May 2013 12:01:14 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/148595647ee7d9a314997db8b2479bf2/tumblr_mlmknpbf5c1s3xd2uo1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://xhardcorebearx.tumblr.com/post/50449700643/this-is-rad" class="tumblr_blog">xhardcorebearx</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>This is rad</p></blockquote>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501135526http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501135526Wed, 15 May 2013 11:56:27 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/ae47f34a43d66811f6a415468f61af3e/tumblr_mmcobiXZQh1rwe56eo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><blockquote> <p><code><big>Untitled By <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/sydneyhirsch/" id="yui_3_7_3_3_1367798775582_1271">sydney hirsch</a></big></code></p> </blockquote>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501115880http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501115880Wed, 15 May 2013 11:56:04 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lv2xzlQ4JD1r72osso1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501101197http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501101197Wed, 15 May 2013 11:55:46 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/ecdebd6ff857ffec7651603529081a46/tumblr_mm9dq4t8Qz1rqmxqgo1_500.png"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/8f1180dc96dfe8ab43cc7e23e27dc4df/tumblr_mm9dq4t8Qz1rqmxqgo2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501084215http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501084215Wed, 15 May 2013 11:55:24 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/980642e3ea9dddfdd14aabd678dd1b47/tumblr_mmkb8fPEe61qz4d4bo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501047432http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501047432Wed, 15 May 2013 11:54:38 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/cc63dcd469407e7f38d3aac384de4dd0/tumblr_mm71a3Ru0c1qdqlnso1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501035969http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501035969Wed, 15 May 2013 11:54:23 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/e14cd33d064589d1ea0591decc7797bb/tumblr_mlfdvri64P1qz7t0xo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://eatsleepdraw.com/post/50000282995">eatsleepdraw</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://mparisartwork.com/blog/2013/4/16/fox-skateboard" title="Fox Skateboard">Fox Skateboard</a> by Matthew Paris</p> <p>Acrylic + Pyrography </p> </blockquote>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501007888http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50501007888Wed, 15 May 2013 11:53:47 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/aa387fa4a945240754b9852a75a6f43d/tumblr_mj635olhom1ro608ao1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50500987373http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50500987373Wed, 15 May 2013 11:53:21 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8mymrpFXn1rb75o6o1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50500982273http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50500982273Wed, 15 May 2013 11:53:15 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/01684a7903767358b45ca38e82bc9dc8/tumblr_mlp0pt7OWm1qll3z0o1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50500957799http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50500957799Wed, 15 May 2013 11:52:45 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/a05b89299eb2854c204422c43ff39d3f/tumblr_mmfcaq4L1P1r9pt1so1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://kajmahal.tumblr.com/post/49903987303/baaaabe">kajmahal</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Baaaabe.</p> </blockquote>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50348746315http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50348746315Mon, 13 May 2013 12:34:23 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/7cf72bb39bb3cc3bb35abe85afa28cdd/tumblr_mmgenvkCRs1qz4d4bo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50348681223http://thisoldworld.tumblr.com/post/50348681223Mon, 13 May 2013 12:33:06 -0400
