gentle reminder you can rise up from everything. you can recreate yourself. nothing is permanent. you are not stuck. you have choices. you can think new thoughts. you can learn something new. you can create new habits. all that matters is that you decide today and never look back.

no, i understand the only way out is through, i know this and i am very familiar with the concept and i have forced myself through and through and through and through, like an arrow to an apple; like a bird to the air. i push myself through mesh and sieve and stormdrain.
i am saying this thing is like stone to me. i am saying i have taken a pickaxe and a plow and a chisel and a spoon to it and i have made no dent or scratch in the surface. i have pushed and pushed, sisyphus beside me, and still my skin gave before the stone could.
i am telling you if there is a passage i do not see or some kind of clever way to thwart this enemy i'll take it. i've been up down and sideways of it, i've whispered to it and cajoled it and sang to it. i have tended to it like a kitten and i've kicked it to the curb. i have exhausted all available avenues and approaches as are available to me. i'll do whatever stupid fetch quest or answer the riddles three. i am standing here and every part of my body hurts and the stone is unmoved. please. if you know how to resolve this, i'm begging you.
and still, you say. the only way out is through.
You’re allowed to be excited about the little things. You’re allowed to be goofy. You’re allowed to be dorky about your favorite tv show, to make blanket forts, to enjoy cheesy movies, even just to sleep with stuffed animals. You’re allowed to do any of the things that make life a little more bearable. It’s fine, ok?
Albert Camus, from a letter to María Casares featured in Correspondance, 1944-1959
...or, we almost did. still, the last sentence remains true. ♡
we all have one foot in a fairytale, and the other in the abyss.
Fresh strawberries in a ceramic bowl, sun-warmed skin & open windows, iced coffee condensation on your fingers, picking flowers from your garden just because, the smell of rain on pavement, and everything green & growing.
NO ONE HAS TO THINK HOW YOU LIVE IS BEAUTIFUL. NO ONE HAS TO THINK YOU’RE STRONG OR COOL OR INNOVATIVE.
