actually furthermore the phrasing “you’re gonna miss this” is a much better way to express the sentiment often behind the “these are the best days of your life.” The latter comes with the implication that if you’re not happy now it’ll only get worse. The former instead implies that if you’re unhappy in the moment there is still reason to appreciate the good things about it you will miss later, to take the good with the bad, and have gratitude in place of discontentment.

being in your early 20s is crazy bc there’s people who are literally married and people who’ve never even dated and people who are trapped in their childhood bedrooms waiting to get out and people who are trying to live out romanticized dream lives and people who are completely on their own and people with multi tiered support systems and we’re all supposedly peers and none of us think we’re doing it right at all

You sleep at his house every night,

make dinner together on Sundays.

It’s nothing serious. By that, you mean

it’s something temporary. Like him

working in the floral section.

Like the bouquet he brought you last week.

It is sweet, and brief, and no less lovely

for its briefness.

You could assign every flower a meaning,

but you don’t. This isn’t

the Victorian era. This is your era.

This is the gift you give each other

while it lasts.
