This quote from my current read hit hard.
Your shadow still haunts me chills running down my spine. Still I move forward fighting to break free. No longer able to accept this grip you have on me. -Azurerillis
It be like that sometimes
Random thought š
That moment when everything is hazy and the only thing in focus is you. A realization that you matter despite the opinions of others. That being authentically you is more important than being palatable. Frankly speaking life is too short to waste time and energy trying to fit into others boxes. Itās too short to apologize for something that isnāt serving you. It is your right to have boundaries to protect your peace against anyone or anything. Be you simply because that is your purpose. Be unapologetically yourself walking through this life proudly knowing you are doing your best. Those who love you will walk beside you and the rest can fall away. All the while you can rest in the fact that you didnāt bend to accommodate those who were temporary fixtures. Yes, you will have times that feel like failures, but know they are lessons. Know that you are worthy of this life. Let no one tell you or make you feel otherwise.

Reminds me of The Cat Returns
Finished the book āLegends and Lattesā by Travis Baldree. This book was a calm read about the decisions we make to reinvent ourselves. It is a celebration of what it means to embrace who you are and find your circle of people. I felt I was right there with the characters enjoying bean water and a midnight crescent.
āThis is what I know, what I've always known. I just want to know something else, now. To be something else.ā - Legends & Lattes
Itās never too late to be who you want to be. You can reinvent yourself until it feels like home. Thatās the beauty of this gift called life.
Church on the Hill (Paul Unbereit, 1914)
This painting speaks to the way my soul feels when the world is too loud. Which these days seems to last forever.
This is a mantra to remember that no matter what the day brings you are still worthy.
Iāve been away for a long while. I basically have been captured by books. Usually writing was my outlet, yet now lost in the pages of books I can breathe. I can escape the chaos of my thoughts. The world melts away as I sink in to each story. Itās wonderful š.
I havenāt given up on writing. However, I usually write from a negative frame of mind. From the dark corners of my mind that keeps trauma in the shadows. Now Iām able to immerse myself in books and oddly enough Iām in a more positive frame of mind. Rarely triggered which to me is a huge thing. So to anyone that tends to be at times trapped by triggers. To be held in the shadows finding it hard to breathe or move.
Find your outlet & embrace the positive moments. Just my humble opinion on what works for me. Much love š
The escape of fictional characters and realms of wonder. Reality fades as a tidal wave of words crashes through unwanted memories. Breaking through the glassy surface of a chaotic world drowning in an invisible ocean. The claustrophobic near strangulation of societal opinions. An overwhelming need to run far and fast to any corner left untouched. A place of peace, comfort, and simplicity. Too many things race through the mind attempting to comprehend each new idea or feeling that appears. Labels being thrown around with meanings that make about as much sense as a labyrinth. Anxiety takes hold heart races, eyes dart around in hope of finding something familiar. Still, nothing calms the nerves like a good story. One that can transport the mind to a safe place. A destination chosen by genre. An unknown yet known destination of oneās choosing. Life, beautiful as it is, has become an inescapable prison on a global scale. The dream of an off-grid hideaway, a true paradise away from the senselessness invading our minds. Itās hard to imagine based on actions seen or heard, that reality isnāt a nightmare we all just need to wake up from. Wake up! Wake up! Yeah, eyes open standing firmly on the concrete detached from nature. My body screams to be reconnected to find meaning in the elements. Let the water be wisdom, fire be confidence, earth strength, and wind freedom. Until home is home again let fiction be my escape.
It is always the best option to improve your words instead of raising a voice about anything. You have to understand that only talking loudly is not going to help you. Instead of that, you have to raise your words as well. You also have to make sure that your words are hard enough to strike the chords with people. Or else, there will be no point in raising your words. Also, if you can raise your words properly, you will see that you donāt have to raise your voice. Raising your words will do the needful.

As a young librarian, I started trying to figure out why more young people aren't ever coming in; 90% of our demographic are the elderly and parents of children, and the rest are a rough mix of the kids and teenagers who come in just for school projects. As a result, I've been attempting different ways to get the Youth TM to come into libraries, but first I wanted to see why they don't come in. Please reblog to get this poll out to more people! <3
This hit home. So often someone can throw negativity and the stab is deep. Often we forget that no one has lived our life nor walked in our shoes. We are who we are and thatās what makes us unique. No one has the right to judge us. Itās hard to be mindful of this since at least for me my own insecurities and negativity cloud my mind at times.
No matter what may come into your life seeking to destroy you never let it win. Fight to stay alive and be the flower that breaks through the concrete.
