''what if you regret it'' then you will expirience regret - a normal and unavoidable part of the human expirience.

a lot of your suffering comes from treating your nature like a problem to manage instead of a design to understand

THIS

[harrietvane]

“Modernist manuals of writing often conflate story with conflict. This reductionism reflects a culture that inflates aggression and competition while cultivating ignorance of other behavioral options. No narrative of any complexity can be built on or reduced to a single element. Conflict is one kind of behavior. There are others, equally important in any human life, such as relating, finding, losing, bearing, discovering, parting, changing. Change is the universal aspect of all these sources of story. Story is something moving, something happening, something or somebody changing.”

— Ursula K. Le Guin (via jayemichaela)

carl jung girl you were so right about avoidance

[persianmom-deactivated20260602]

“if we don't accept our own destiny, a different kind of suffering takes its place: a neurosis develops, and I believe that that life which we have to live is not as bad as a neurosis. if I have to suffer, then let it be from my reality. a neurosis is a much greater curse! in general, a neurosis is a replacement for an evasion, an unconscious desire to cheat life, to avoid something. one cannot do more than live what one really is. and we are all made up of opposites and conflicting tendencies. after much reflection, i have come to the conclusion that it is better to live what one really is and accept the difficulties that arise as a result-because avoidance is much worse.”

An Interview with Richard Siken

came home and decided to immediately make a recipe using the ingredients i had just bought. i have so many good ingredients now i don't even want to eat out or order takeout

i've gone the whole month without alcohol, added sugars, or dairy. also kept my hair in braids the whole month. i'm proud of starting off with consistency. as a result, i've also felt like i've been attuned to living seasonally because when i think about it, my body needs all the defenses it can get in the winter. it's kind of strange to eat inflammatory foods or expose my hair to harsh temperatures when its super cold outside. interestingly, these thoughts are occurring at the same time as the "becoming chinese" wellness trends lol, which some people are rightfully skeptical about. i feel like elimination, whether its prompted by personal resolution or economic recession, has made me realize how much casual hedonism (really: the paradox of choice) was causing me anxiety. it's honestly embarrassing how much mental real estate was occupied by dessert options lmao. i want to relinquish the control i think i have or am burdened by and it feels like the easiest way to do that is to observe how the earth wants me to live.

when you let go of people you are painfully seeking approval or love from, you return to yourself. you return to what feels truer to you and to what brings you happiness. you are reminded that life does not always have to feel bad, that you do not always have to feel like you aren’t enough, that what you want for yourself and your future goes beyond a single person’s regard of you. you notice the energy start to shift and flow more fluidly. pay attention to all of this.
