There's Chaos In Water; Much More Than You Can Imagine...

Anaïs Nin, Delta of Venus, originally published: 1977

But how could you live and have no story to tell?

— Fyodor Dostoevsky

Loki: “So I—“ *stabs hand* “— finally understand you now”

Magne: “What the fuck”

i think laurits might be my new favourite interpretation of loki in the modern filmography, my boy does it so so well, just playing both sides while still kinda staying with his brother but making it so that even his brother barely trusts him, pure loki-ness

Ideas: How to romanticize life

💫 Make your home / room smell lovely. Scented candles, oils, and similar are perfect for this.

💫 Take your time. Do things slowly instead of hasty - take your time in the shower, in the supermarket, while cleaning, etc.

💫 Have pretty decorations in your home / room. Surround yourself with cute little things to give yourself a beautiful space!

💫 Let some soft music play in the background (while doing things at home, or listen to soft music with earbuds while doing things outside.)

💫 Let yourself notice the wonders of nature more actively! The beauty of plants and flowers during a walk, the seemingly soft clouds in the sky on the way to work, the lullabies and happy songs the birds sing etc.

💫 Flowers! Always have one or two pretty bouquets at home, maybe one on your nightstand!

💫 Light candles whenever it gets dark and / or when doing tasks. Have candles while showering, taking a bath, cooking, cleaning. Whenever! Maybe even scented!

💫 Keep a diary / journal for positive entries only.

💫 Wear perfume, pretty clothes, do your makeup even when just staying at home.

💫 Books, books, books! Read a lot - whatever genre you prefer!

💫 Write and / or read poetry.

💫 Spend some peaceful time without devices.

💫 Start your day with a cup of tea - give yourself a silent moment before the everyday hustle and bustle!

💫 Give yourself more time to prepare your meals - make it a joyful, fun activity.

💫 Display / put up pictures of happy moments - moments where you felt beautiful, had fun.

💫 Use nice-smelling bath additives (oils, bath bombs etc.)

💫 Spend more time in nature - picnics, walks, bathing in a lake, collecting leaves and such.

💫 Make your meals look pretty!

💫 Wear elegant clothing while taking a walk.

💫 Write and give cute-looking letters to the people you love (and to yourself!)

💫 Exercise more self-care.

💫 Keep your space tidy and clean.

NEVER LET YOURSELF BE STOPPED BY WHAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LIKE IF YOU STARTED EARLIER!!!!! THE ONLY TIME WE HAVE IS NOW
