I´m really tired of characters in contemporary books which serve the sole purpose of explaining some philosophical theory which is hardly even relevant to the story.

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final. Don't let yourself lose me. Nearby is the country they call life. Give me your hand.

Rainer Maria Rilke, from “Go to the linings of your longing”

you do kind of have to actively shape how you feel a little bit. you can't just like, passively wait for the world to impress and inspire you. you have to choose to look for it & you have to choose to find it.

take your feelings out for regular exercise to build their strength and endurance

I can barely get out of bed. So I make tea. I stand at the window while I wait. My feet are cold and the radio plays its little sounds. I do the small thing I know how to do to care for myself. I am trying to notice joy, which means survive. I do this all day, and then the next.

Leila Chatti, from "Tea"
