Perhaps It Is True That We Do Not Really Exist Until There Is Someone There To See Us Existing, We Cannot

I tell myself I am searching for something. But more and more, it feels like I am wandering, waiting for something to happen to me, something that will change everything, something that my whole life has been leading up to.

Khaled Hosseini, And the Mountains Echoed (via wordsnquotes)

I sleep. I dream. I make up things that I would never say. I say them very quietly.

How wonderful it is, to be silent with someone.

Cold Pt 3 ~ 10K/Reader

Here is another part to Cold. Let me know if I should bother with a Part 4!

“I miss just being able to go to the salon. My hair is disgusting.” Addy ran a hand through her greasy locks, pulling a face of distaste.

“I just miss being clean in general.” You huffed, burying your hands in to your hoodie pockets and continuing down the road. Warren had declared you all split up and look for supplies but it had just turned in to a waste of time considering all the shops appeared to already have been looted. 

“Look,” Addy grinned, pointing towards the shop window. You grinned back as you both made your way towards the window. 

“Well, Warren did say supplies.” You agreed as you pushed the door, which opened on its on. 

Great, it isn’t locked.

Addy walked through first, her weapon held tightly in front of her. You came in behind her, pointing your gun ahead, just in case. You took a quick glance round the store and noted, while it had been looted, there was still items worth taking.

10K would definitely appreciate these you thought in your head as you walked towards one of the shelves.

For Calming a Distracted Mind

You will need:

A children’s spinning top, as small as you like.

A pink or green scarf.

Timing:

When you get home and can’t relax

The spell:

Start the top spinning faster and faster, saying, “Whirling and spinning, I am not winning in clearing my mind; it is unkind. Thoughts haunt and taunt me with matters unfinished and tasks undiminished.”

Slow down the top with you hand, saying, “Slowing your spinning, at least I am winning. Slowing my mind and soon i will find the whirling will stop and i can get off.”

When the top has stopped spinning, wrap it in the scarf, knot the scarf ends three times, and say, “Out of sight, out of mind, life unwinds and softly binds me into stillness, calm, and peace, the day has ceased.”

Put the top away in a cupboard until you need to do the spell again.

The lion, the tin man, and the scarecrow.

One with a big heart but no brain.

One with a smart brain but no heart.

And one with both heart and brain, but no courage to use either.

This is the closest I could find to what I’m feeling but I think even this is a little bit right. But it’s close. And that’s enough for now.

My life - my personality, my habits, even my speech - is a combination of the books I choose to read, the people I choose to listen to, and the thoughts I choose to tolerate in my mind…
