“What do we live for if not to make the world less difficult for each other?”

— George Eliot, Middlemarch

[inloveforevr-deactivated2025041]

Self improvement is great but ultimately? you have to accept your self. Yes you can eat better, exercise more, read more, set boundaries, love your self, but it all comes down to this. Some days you won’t have the energy to do any of these things. And you’ll look in the mirror and think that this is not enough. That’s a lie. The biggest love for self is to live slowly. To rest. To really rest. Have a nap. Eat what makes you feel good. Read if you want to. Embrace yourself and accept that you cannot and will not be ever be perfect. Accept that you are good enough. You don’t need to keep busy all the time. you don’t need to go out all the time and post on instagram. You don’t need to journal if you don’t want to. You don’t need to make art if you don’t want to. Breathe, give yourself grace and compassion. Give yourself the love and tenderness you so badly need. Be gentle with yourself. You are trying and it is good enough. You are good enough.

A beautiful poem that illustrates my point

“Have patience with all things but first with yourself. Never confuse your mistakes with your value as a human being. You are perfectly valuable, creative, worthwhile person simply because you exist.”

— Saint Frances de Sales

“I’ve found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances, be more active, show up more often.”

I think kafka’s diaries are the strongest evidence that journaling is not necessarily good for your mental health

John Adams: “I study war and diplomacy, so that my son may study trade and commerce, so that his son may study art and music.”

[cumaeansibyl]

I wasn’t sure about that quote, so I looked it up, and it’s a fairly accurate paraphrase of what Adams actually said:

I must study politics and war, that our sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy. Our sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history and naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry and porcelain.

Some moments from October weekends, studying in cafés, exploring, book sales!!! Struggling to get in the spirit of autumn, but cosy study sessions with coffee and pastries definitely helps~~~
