reading books is a magical experience. you stare at slices of dead tree and hallucinate.

Be not inhospitable to strangers, lest they be angels in disguise.

Did you eat? (I love you) I bought the bread you like (I love you) I noticed you were upset so I brought you tea (I love you) I made this for you (I love you) I know you have a lot of work and can't talk now so I will leave this thing you like around (I love you) I did your chores (I love you) I will sit by in case you need anything (I love you. I love you. I love you)

“As soon as you begin to ask the question, Who loves me? you are completely screwed, because the next question is How Much? and then it is hundreds of hours later, and you are still hunched over your flowcharts and abacus, trying to decide if you have gotten enough. This is the loneliest job in the world: to be an accountant of the heart. It is late at night. You are by yourself, and all around you, you can hear the sounds of people moving in and out of love, pushing the turnstiles, putting their coins in the slots, paying the price which is asked, which constantly changes. No one knows why.”

— Tony Hoagland, “The Loneliest Job in the World”

also the more lived experiences you have the more interesting and hopefully kinder and more compassionate and well-informed a person you’ll be. i hope everyone i love gets to age and age and age until we’re all grey and wrinkled and full of love & stories & laughter & the knowledge that all the moments of grief and sorrow were worth it

I could love you violently, if I let myself.
