mom's greatest mistake is that she sacrificed the process for the goal. but what i've come to learn is that life is lived in the process, thus making it more important than the goal. and i don't plan on enduring shitty processes just to check a goal off a list. won't miss out on life like she did

When you're a kid you just take trees for granted. Then when you get to be an adult you realize that a fully mature tree cannot be created in an amount of time that fits in a convenient landscaping timeframe for love nor money nor all the powers of science. Then you realize that people are very very very cavalier about chopping them down

Okay, if you are tired then you won't be able to read. There I say it. No one else want to say it. It is strange. If you are tired, if you cannot finish a book that's a given. That's why you need to read...at work. You need to steal your reading time from your employers.

On of the less intuitive things about love, I've found, of any kind, is the importance of needing things.

I didn't realize it until recently, but I've always seen love as something requiring sacrifice, selflessness, patience, and generosity- to ask for nothing is to be the best person I can be, small and quiet and never in the way, always happy and helpful, self-sufficient and present when desired.

It's only as an adult, now, that I'm beginning to see the selfishness of wanting nothing.

I cut my friend's hair in my kitchen the other day. They wanted a trim and I had the skills, so I offered, and was genuinely excited when they stopped hesitating over "bothering me" and took me up on it. It was a peaceful afternoon, and we had tea and chatted for an hour or more.

My brother and I shared popcorn at the movies a while ago. When I came time to pay, I pulled my card out like a wild western sheriff and slapped it on the machine before he could fight me for it first. The satisfaction was delightful.

Someone called me crying on the phone the other day. Kept apologizing for disturbing me at work, talking about how they were bothering me on my lunch break. I was telling the truth when I told them that really, I was flattered and honored and relieved, knowing that if they were hurting I would know, that I didn't have to worry in silence. It felt good to hear them slowly come down, and to know that they knew it would be better soon, and to hear them laugh wetly on the other end. We're getting together for a visit next week.

It's hard to need things, if you've trained yourself not to. It's hard to want things, when you don't know how to want anymore. Trusting people is difficult, and so is relying on them, but I don't know where I'd be without the people who rely on me.

I've heard a lot of people say, "Nobody will love you unless you love yourself". I've had a lot of thoughts about it. It's not right, but it's not wrong, either, I think.

"Nobody will love you unless you love yourself"... I've always taken that to mean, "You will not be lovable until you develop a positive view of yourself as a person".

Now, I think it's sort of inside-out.

"Nobody will love you unless you love yourself"... because nobody can show their love to you in a way that you can accept until you treat yourself kindly, and learn what you need, and what you want, and how to ask for it, and then give that vulnerability away.

Love, for me, is someone I ask for a ride to the airport. Whether they end up doing this or not is irrelevant.

It's not needy, or selfish, or taking up energy. It's giving the gift of being wanted, and needed, and thought of. It's giving someone the security of being part of someone's life.

Girl whose most frequent mistake is inaction voice: wow I keep making mistakes I better not do anything

atmos first listen

title song - kinda dissonant and a bit tiring for my autistic ass that singles our each individual sound, but i like the pre-chorus, especially jinki's part. AND HIS HIGH NOTE. 6/10

hours - MY JOY MY PRIDE. taemin's part is really cool, i feel like i enjoyed this one more towards the end. 4/10

thousand miles away - i wonder what frequency this is, i immediately chilled out. the surround effect for the chorus is nice. lyrics are also sweet based on my limited understanding. how kibum's voice fades away in the end? 7/10 would play this to my cat

still raining - old rnb sound!! yessssss. also that's the most i've heard kibum sing alone in a shinee song? 😂 jk. his part was really soft. 8/10

spotify ads have become truly outrageous. 30 seconds?? fuck off. so glad i cancelled my subscription.

possibility - oh shit. OH SHIT. i love it. NO LISTEN I REALLY LOVE IT. "when u fall down gotta keep running" ok but maybe stand up first? 🤭 9/10 ooh na na na

anti believer my beloved - i knew i was going to love this one from the concert footage. god damn. i want to put this song into a blender and drink it with a straw. the cut-off breaths? building up to the chorus? the bass? this would have been a banger title track. 100/10 time to listen to it on repeat until i combust
