🛸 23! Lost. Living life. 👽

[pigmenting]

i’ve been learning lately that although it’s very important to take care of your present self, it’s also really important to take care of your future self. it’s important to give yourself things to look forward to. like making plans with friends for later in the week or month. buying yourself little things online so they show up at your door days later. making yourself smoothies for tomorrow’s breakfast. buying tickets for a concert months from now. writing letters to friends that live far away (and having them send some to you). commit to going to an event when you first hear about it. plan a day completely for yourself. leave yourself notes for you to find at a later time/date. plan a trip for next year.  take care of your present self but also try and look out for your future self too, y’know?

“I thought I could make you stay if I just tried hard enough. If I just loved you hard enough. But I had no chance, did I? I will never be enough for you.”

No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress, you are still way ahead of everyone who isn't trying.

There is a peace that comes with understanding;

In the quiet moments when the anxious rumblings in my brain stop to breathe

An acceptance can be garnered for an outcome I do not wish but instinctively know is coming.

It is not the choice I’d make if given the chance to be the one to make it.

There is a sadness to it for what was and what could be

But also a knowing that there is a brightness I seek which blinds some rather than excites them.

I would rather seek to fly too close to those sunlit dreams than hide in the comfort of what has always been

But I do not begrudge your creature comforts;

The world is a terrifying kaleidoscope of wonders and pain.

For some it will always be easier to stay the course they know than to brave the beauty of what if.

love ur body:

look at ur hands: they have pet so many cute animals and dried so many of ur tears

look at ur feet: they have walked you to some of ur favorite places and walked you away from the bad ones

look at ur belly: think of the days when its been full and warm with your favorite foods

look at ur legs: they have held you up when you thought you weren’t strong enough to stand

look at ur eyes: they have seen so many beautiful people

look at ur mouth: it has told so many people that u love them

ur body has been there for you since day 1; love it, it loves u.

your mental illness is absolutely not your fault. it doesn’t define you as a person and it doesn’t take away from the amazing person you are. you are brilliant; full of endless possibility. this illness is just something you are going through, it is not you. i am sorry that people do not always realize this. you are loved and you are worthy of happiness just the way you are. i love you.

One day you’re going to wake up to a warm smile and a kiss on the forehead. One day you’re going to find someone who remembers your favourite flower and your favourite food and the places you’ve always wanted to go. You’ll find someone who falls for your laughter and your intellect and your passion. Someone who loves every curve of your body and every part of your soul. You’ll find the kind of love that is effortless. The kind that you don’t have to ask for. The kind that is given freely.

I punched a guy bc he was making rape jokes and one of the things he said was “what’s the difference between yes and no? Nothing” so I asked him if he’d care if I punched him in the face and he said yes but I did it anyway since there’s no difference between yes and no and that’s the story of how I gave someone a bloody nose
