Take a walk with me. <3 From a mid-September morning walk on the lake path, 2023. A radiant morning—I have so many more pictures.

not to be dramatic but sometimes i feel like i don't belong anywhere on this earth like maybe all there is for me is perpetual loneliness + constant desire to go back to a place that doesn’t exist anymore

it is really cool that there is now an official maori word for autism, created with input from autistic maoris, and it was specifically coined to be nonjudgmental
quote from article:
“In my experience, people with autism tend to have their own timing, spacing, pacing and life-rhythm, so I interpreted autism as ‘takiwatanga’, meaning ‘his or her own time and space’,” [Keri Opai] told government-funded Maori Television.
(source)
I’m not crying, you’re crying.
It’s also key to note that the word for disabled in te reo Maori is now whaikaha (to have strength or to be differently able), and at the same time takiwatanga and whaikaha were minted, about 200 words were added that also describe other mental health, addiction, and disability issues.
So now, about 125,000 of the roughly 561,000 Maori people in NZ will be able to effectively describe and discuss autism and so much more in their native language for the benefit of themselves and their loved ones. That is the best thing I’ve heard all day.
Fenêtre sur mer.
This is a reminder that your parents/guardians are supposed to feed you, give you shelter and clothes. These should not be seen as favors nor should they be pushing these things to be seen as favors they do for you. This is literally the bare minimum of what they signed up for and you deserve so much more than the bare minimum without being made to feel guilty about any of it.

"Not all those who wander are lost;"
- J.R.R. Tolkien; The Fellowship of the Ring
“How’s life?”
Me:
How we feeling, chat?
"There's some good in this world, Mr Frodo. And it's worth fighting for."
"I wish it need not have happened in my time."
"Your time will come. You will face the same Evil, and you will defeat it."
"Despair is only for those who see the end beyond all doubt. We do not."
"Hope remains while the Company is true."
"Faithless is he that says farewell when the road darkens."
"It is useless to meet revenge with revenge: it will heal nothing."
"Oft hope is born when all is forlorn."
"Even darkness must pass. A new day will come."
"You'll find more cheer in a graveyard."
"The Ring has awoken; it's heard its master’s call."
If I see one more "inspirational" Tolkien quote on my dash today I might hurl
Several of these LOTR quotes have gotten me through hard times. Like the phial of Galadriel, they have been a light in dark places, when all other lights go out.
It's no wonder that Tokien, who experienced WW1 found plenty of ways to inspire hope when things have looked bleak.
