“Cats don’t actually love you”

A cat is a small creature in the middle of the food chain that is fully aware that you are a very large thing that could stomp its head in at any moment and yet it chooses to rest its tiny little head on your leg for a nap and spreads out on the floor near you exposing its belly and its most sensitive organs. It brings dead mice and bugs to you to share food.

Don’t you get it? This tiny thing trusts you. It wants to help you too. It licks your leg thinking that it’s helping. It kneads on you to find comfort. It shares its body warmth with you in the cold and gives you your space in the heat. It hisses at other mammals it sees outside including other cats in an effort to protect its family.

Cats love you so so much. But they will keep trying to eat plastic.

Every word is true, especially the plastic one

Someday of Heartbreak

Oftentimes when we separate from a person, the pain we feel is not coming from our heart breaking, instead it is the pain we feel from a delusion breaking.

It is incredibly painful to realize what you thought you had, you dont. To think you found love, when you didnt. To feel like you could trust, when you cant. To think you know the truth, when its a lie. To think you had something special, when you dont.

All of this is the breaking of a delusion, not a heart. What you thought was real, just isnt. You were wrong and thats okay, cause one day you will be right. One day it will not be a delusion, one day everything you think is real, will be real.

I learned a new word today.

Inosculation.

Two trees grow so closely together that they eventually merge and become inseparable.

I finally have a word for our love.

I feel like a part of my soul has loved you since the beginning of everything. Maybe we’re from the same star.

When BoJack Horseman (2014-2020) said "you can't keep doing shitty things and then feel bad about yourself like that makes it ok. you need to be better" and "all we have are the connections we make" and "I really should've thought about the view from halfway down" and "sometimes you have to take responsibility for your own happiness" and "you do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around, you turn yourself around, THAT'S what it's all about" and "things have to get worse before they can get better" and "in real life, the big gesture isn't enough, you need to be consistent" and "if we hadn't met each other until now, we wouldn't be the people we are now" and, my personal favourite, "every day it gets a little easier, but you gotta do it every day, that's the hard part, but it does get easier".

the biggest lesson i learned is not to give too much of yourself to people who won't do the same for you.

“We’re all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness—and call it love—true love.”

He came to me like the first rain after a wildfire.

All the color and joy was gone from my life. I was broken and ashy ruins of the person I used to be.

He doused the flames that still burned in me and helped me grieve the loss of myself. His love poured into the buried seeds of my spirit and signaled that it was safe to regrow.

It’s been 8 months since the rains came and things have changed. The plants are still small, the coverage is patchy, but the first blooms are back. Color and life have reclaimed the desecrated grounds. I’m very excited to see the growth after years of consistant rain.
