done healing my inner child. next up is my inner teen. her highness demands a sword.

I’ve tricked myself into thinking I’m normal by constructing an environment and daily routine that supports all my needs, but then once I leave it I collapse like a deep sea fish being taken to the surface

summer evening, windows open, a light breeze inside my room, freshly washed bedsheets, salted tomatoes on toasted bread, music playing in the background, sunshine dappled floor, wearing my summer perfume. moment of bliss

i started reading this quite long book on saturday and i finished it yesterday before going to bed and it honestly felt like im 16 again on a summer vacation just devouring books one after the other. haven’t done that in such a long time it just feels so good to sit for hours doing nothing but reading, not rushing through it, just savoring each page & each line as the hours go by, closing the book every now and then to go do something else but always coming back to it excited for the next page. so peaceful and such a luxurious feeling to have

The longer I live, the more deeply I learn that love — whether we call it friendship or family or romance — is the work of mirroring and magnifying each other’s light. Gentle work. Steadfast work. Life-saving work in those moments when life and shame and sorrow occlude our own light from our view, but there is still a clear-eyed loving person to beam it back. In our best moments, we are that person for another.

-James Baldwin

I feel like if a vampire feeds on you without killing you, they should give you a lil cookie and cup of juice afterwards, like the blood donation center does.

"Who radicalized you"

Actually I was taught at home that it's rude to be shitty at other people for no reason, and then some americans decided that this is a radical political ideology.
