98 year old dobri dobrev, a man who lost his hearing in the second world war, walks 10 kilometers from his village in his homemade clothes and leather shoes to the city of sofia, where he spends the day begging for money.

though a well recognized fixture around several of the city’s chruches, known for his prostrations of thanks to all donors, it was only recently discovered that he has donated every penny he has collected — over 40,000 euros — towards the restoration of decaying bulgarian monasteries and churches and the utility bills of orphanages, living entirely off his monthly state pension of 80 euros and the kindness of others.

and now i’m crying.

Wow

These are amazing. There’s only one missing and that’s SARAH CONNOR <3

I think I’ve reblogged Ellen Ripley before, but I like that this guy keeps making more. So far he’s 8/8 for shows I’ve watched or am currently watching.

yup.

Very good.

This makes me both want to laugh and cry, and I have no idea exactly why that is.

I went for a hike today. It was so gorgeous and verdant it was almost obscene.

“Paralyzed Horse’s log, July 3rd, 3085. Every day I hear and I see eternity. I am frozen in awe of my knowledge of forever, but I belong only to one girl; nowhere can I see more clearly than into her heart. When Beth feels heartbreak, I’m stranded in the stygian void, helpless to comfort her, for I am just a horse. Sleep now, Bravest Warriors, and dream of doors and keys and Ralph Waldo Pickle Chips. Today, something unnatural has slipped into your universe — an octave of death; a tentacle of time. It is the final gift, and it is not for you. Beth does not know it now, but this gift is for her.”

I’m on record as saying I hate all car commercials (because I do), but I’ll make an exception this time. This one time.

Some people that I have talked with recently have expressed some interest in my Buddhism, as they’ve noticed that I post a lot of stuff on my social media regarding it. Well, here’s some stuff if you’re interested!

Wow, yes.

This is great, but it just serves to remind me of the fact that the last time I googled “Why does every album title by Pretty Lights contain exactly seven syllables and rhyme with the other ones” came up with nothing.
