it’s impossible to communicate concepts to another person in exactly the way you envision them, because nobody experiences reality in exactly the same way, and not only do i refuse to come to terms with this fact but i will spend the rest of my life making my entire mind fall apart over it. this sounds more tormented than it is i just wish i was a mantis shrimp looking at the secret colors

[afieldinengland]

sometimes i worry that when i die i won’t have lived up to my potential, or that i’ll have made very little of a mark upon the world. but none of that matters, really, in the long run— in a graveyard there are names that you do not recognise, that are illegible with moss, but that doesn’t mean the person didn’t mean anything. they loved, danced, made bread, touched and were touched just like any other of our fleeting species since the beginning. wilde said that anyone can embody the divine, whether they watch sheep on a moor or write novels, and there’s huge value to that. there aren’t set goals that you have to reach in life apart from being human; loving and being present and screaming i’m here! i’m here!! to the heavens is all you have to do, regardless of whether that gives you a legacy or not. it’s easy to have keats’ “when i have fears” on the brain, but at the end of the day it isn’t m certification, mentions in textbooks or lineage that matters. this quarantine teaches us more than anything that what society expects of us is largely superfluous. is it not enough of an art piece to love and be loved? is our very occupation of physical space, albeit briefly, not a perfomance enough? there is a lot to be said for the fact that art and love are, and always have been, one and the same.
