“The things that we love tell us what we are.”
— Thomas Aquinas
hello everyone. Here’s the worst thing you’ll see this week:
"oh so it's women support women until--" yes actually, sometimes women do not in fact do things worth supporting and other women criticizing them isn't some sort of affront to feminism
“Tomorrow might look different. You’ll have to wait and see. The world is never frozen still, it changes gradually. Then suddenly, it’s all transformed, and you can see it too, and you wonder why you’d ever doubt grey skies would turn to blue.”
— Ellis Nightingale
Being brave doesn't mean you aren't scared. Being brave means you are scared, really scared, badly scared, and you do the right thing anyway.
— Neil Gaiman, Coraline
Exactly
You cannot live alone on the fantasies you feed to your mind, eventually you have to touch your life for real, assess and analyze your habits, understand your character, try not to hate yourself for your character as it was shaped when you were very young by circumstances outside of you, and begin learning how to cope with your character, how to build habits that work for you, finish small projects, finish big projects, expose yourself to more uncomfortable situations, assess why you want to leave that friendship before you leave it, raise your anxiety levels on purpose, so that you can grow, raise your work load on purpose, so that you can grow, so that you can build resilience, so that your life expands, and can be experienced by you in full and in reality

I was vulnerable on a night, when the clouds veiled the moon's shine. I saw my man, wrapped in cigarette smoke, I felt my moon walking on my streets. I felt my heart beating to blend with yours. To fall for flesh and soul, in merely moments I thought I must be insane to fall in love. A sight, a smile, a night all it took for me to shed myself in your arms, to be a damsel of your eves, wonder of your sheets. I turned my days, a game of dreams, plucking petals, whispering he loves me, has he loved me yet..............................
*love hurts, love heals*
