“I would rather die of passion, than of boredom.”
~ Vincent Van Gogh (or Emile Zola)
What a romantic quote, no?
Van Gogh is not only known for his spectacular paintings, but also for his grave passion that eventually lead to his suicide.
But is it possible for one to ‘die of passion’? If it was, I’m pretty sure my father would be dead by now – the man is passion incarnate. Not exactly like Van Gogh – my dad’s not an artist –
but passionate, nonetheless.
I felt a rose was appropriate, given the title. This is a picture I took for my photography class.
Hi guys! Welcome to my blog.
My name is Nastassia and I’m a hopelessly romantic aspiring writer and a big sister of three. I live in a not very romantic place, doing a pretty romanticized thing, but that’s not what this is about. This is an outpouring of thoughts – a public journal, so to speak. I decided to start this blog because I thought maybe something I say will be something someone out there needs to hear.
