literally how was i supposed to read this and be normal about it

[bakwaaas]

my hot take is that you don’t have to love being single or love being alone. if you can’t spend a second in your own company there’s a problem, but wanting love and companionship is completely normal and natural. you’re not weak or mentally unstable for feeling lonely or yearning for partnership and friendship. we do need each other, we need community, we need love, it’s part of our dna to be social creatures.

James Baldwin, from Giovanni’s Room

(transcript below cut)

”One of these days,” he said. “Everything bad will happen—one of these days.” “Why is it bad?”


He smiled, “Why, you will go home and then you will find that home is not home anymore. Then you will really be in trouble. As long as you stay here, you can always think: One day I will go home.” He played with my thumb and grinned. “N’est-ce pas?”


“Beautiful logic,” I said. “You mean I have a home to go to as long as I don’t go there?”


He laughed. “Well, isn’t it true? You don’t have a home until you leave it and then, when you have left it, you never can go back.”


“I seem,” I said, “to have heard this song before.”


“Ah, yes,” said Giovanni, “and you will certainly hear it again. It is one of those songs that somebody somewhere will always be singing.
