Sometimes, if you’re lucky, there will be a tree outside your bedroom window. It is very important to romanticize this tree as much as possible.

“the algorithm only shows us _____” so stop looking at the algorithm. you don't need it. go to a thrift store and flip through some magazines from the 1980s. go read a random book that’s no longer in print on the internet archive. go to a museum and walk around until you see an artwork you don’t recognize. go get a cookbook from the library and make a recipe you've never tried. go listen to the radio. go talk to people in real life. you are not confined to your online content feed. you never have been!!!!!!!

O’ dear God, how beautiful are your creations that painters wanted to immortalise it for centuries.

you are not incompatible with this world: you have a place in this planet (that you will find) and you have innate value too, just by being you
i want to be soft and kind and happy. i want to be a small sun that warms everyone around me. i want to smile and tuck my hair behind my ear and laugh. i want to be so full of love, i can't help but spread it all around.
“I have given away my whole soul to some one who treats it as if it were a flower to put in his coat, a bit of decoration to charm his vanity, an ornament for a summer's day.”

bitches will be like “i love animals” but hate themselves…… you are an animal girl. <3 love yourself. peace on planet earht
life is a drag if they mean
a desperate sucking of smokey
air, a frantic exhale, choking,
a residual coating
clinging ugly to lungs and building
up over so many dull days
awful and thrilling and only in theory
i never really understood the big deal about love until you came along. then it made perfect sense.

Girl Sketching (c. 1810). Sir Henry Raeburn (Scotland, Romanticism, 1756-1823). Oil on canvas. Sudley House, National Museums, Liverpool.
The identity of the girl is unknown. She is wearing a simple muslin dress gathered under the bust, typical of the Regency period. She looks up from her sketch with a dreamy expression. There is an almost throwaway quality about the way the paint is applied. This studied informality, together with the restrained colour and soft yet naturalistic fall of light, are characteristic of the artist.
I hope you find yourself in the books you read
