Warm bread from my oven

When Toni Morrison said the grandeur of life is the attempt, not the solution… And how she went on to explain that it’s about behaving as beautifully as one can under completely impossible circumstances. The power that has, you know? It’s really just the making room for what breathes in the presence of the attempt. In the coming-to-be.

im going to come out and say it: isolating is a self-destructive behavior. it might not be as obvious and immediately self-destructive as say, impulsive spending, drug use or risky behaviors, but it gradually decays relationships and can deepen your mental health issues. often, our impulse is to retreat from others and responsibilities for “self care” or to “work on ourselves” and obviously sometimes we need mental health breaks, but there’s a line you cross from “taking a break” to full on neglecting your relationships with others and your social needs that can be incredibly damaging to yourself and others over time

I see many posts about how it's okay to have a bad day or a bad week or a bad month, and I want to add that it is also okay to have a bad year or several bad years. It's okay if it takes you longer than a day or a week to work through your problems - and even if you've been struggling for years, that doesn't mean your entire life is doomed. Sometimes it takes a year, or two years, or five years or more to get better and that is okay. It's okay if your recovery takes time. It doesn't mean you're failing.

the inherent romance of literally everything when you’re a sentimental bitch

u know what makes me cry..... that one van gogh quote about life changing for the better..... “many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. and it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘what do i care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ yes, evil often seems to surpass good. but then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. one morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. and so i must still have hope.” yeah..... Crying....

My dad was eating pistachios so I reached my hand out and he just started peeling them and giving them to me. Then suddenly went "I really hope you find someone who loves you a lot" and I went "enough to peel my pistachios for me?" And he laughed and said "yeah exactly" before carrying on giving me more

most of us need to be shown how to be considerate

totallyfubar

not as a criticism or anything, I just mean that

A. being able to care for other people is a skill that’s practiced and honed

B. being considerate for each person is so wildly different, 90% of the time you will have no way of knowing how to be considerate for someone until they show you

C. you can try to get better at figuring out what people need implicitly, but all that skill really is is listening so just get better at listening

D. being good at listening and adapting on the fly is maybe the most precise definition of being considerate I can think of, so strive for that and just know you’re never gonna be a telepath
