This image actually came from an anti-Catholic blog that purposely tags wrong, but I find that it brings me comfort. It does not matter how many times you reach out. He will be there for you. Again and Again.

mary renault i know you wanted to write a historical novel set in pre-philippi rome centered on that bastard ephebe

[nekyia]

i’m trying to decide what book to read during my 17 day vacation on a tiny island in the middle of the ionian sea. nothing too intense. an extremely cheesy historical novel with a touch of incest, as if mary renault had written it, would be ideal. mary renault never wrote about ancient rome because blah blah blah, but if she’d been a little less snobbish, she would’ve fallen in love with the julio-claudian dynasty and written the historical novel of the century

[nekyia]

there are relationships that keep going through sheer osmosis, and that might be the thing that scares me most. tell me i’m wrong. for my own good. being indulgent is a hedonistic trait of my personality, but the mere thought of being with someone who doesn’t occasionally call me out because i’m a runaway horse honestly horrifies me
