I love u 85 million acres (bigger than italy) of national parks. I love u harlem renaissance. I love u groundhogs day. I love u sweet tea and fried chicken and jambalaya. I love u apple cider donuts and maizes on crisp autumn days. I love u 95k miles of coastlines and new england fisherman and hand knitted sweaters. I love u halloween where millions of people dress up and give candy to strangers and carve jack o’lanterns. I love u small talk and small towns and potlucks and bringing over casseroles to your struggling neighbors. I love u cowboys and ranch hands and arizonian cactus. I love u appalachian trail and dirtbikes and divebars. I love u sparklers and fireflies. I love u mark twain and toni morrison and emily dickinson and henry david thoreau.

im a simple man i like when things are shaped like other things. stool shaped like a mushroom. pillows shaped like fruit. salt and pepper shaker shaped like two friends hugging. in my ideal world i will have a house stocked entirely with novelty objects shaped like other objects and it will be beautiful.

I had a dream last night that I met Mary Oliver and we were walking in the woods (I must have been very special to her indeed in this dream) and I cried as I told her how much her work meant to me. Mind you she appeared close to the age of her death in this dream and was having some trouble on this hills as we walked and stumbled at one point but I caught her. Then she patted my hand and said “now you’ve helped me as much as I helped you” and then I woke up.

#Mary Oliver my beloved #dreams

Wrap it up boys we’re playing lover you should’ve come over on repeat again

#I’m fine actually why are you concerned?#I guess this is what your early 20s just sounds like

Thinking about God again and how I can never escape him but all the running I think I’m doing from him is really just running towards him. Thinking about how I never thought I’d go back to faith, and yet here I am all those years and tears later and how at the end of the day I will always be the little girl wanting nothing more than her heavenly father’s arms. Thinking about Our Lady of Sorrows too. Mary will you weep with me for this broken world filled with pain and suffering? Will you help me know your son in only the way a mother can teach?

i am a kaleidoscope of the fragments left behind by everyone i've ever loved and sometimes when a shard cuts my thumb i smile a little when it bleeds because it means they're still with me even when they haven't been in my life for a long time

this occurred to me at 2am and i am reheating these nachos on every platform i possess a handle on because i don’t care

My close, personal, friend rose putting my innermost thoughts on blast

“Haha remember when murder-hornets were gonna be a thing? What a nothingburger.”

Yes, because the Washington state government activated like a sleeper-cell and ruthlessly, systematically hunted them down and annihilated them.

“Y2K came to nothing amirite?”

Yes because an army of software engineers working around the clock, losing sleep, and busting ass till the last minute prevented it from happening.

“Remember the hole in the ozone layer?”

You mean the one that was fixed through rigorous world wide government action?

One of the root problems of our society is a refusal or inability by media to articulate that all those “it’s gonna be an apocalypse” disasters were not disasters because we collectively did something about them.

The good news is this is actually quite correctable. I maintain my firm belief that we as humans are capable of solving almost all of our problems, when we decide to do so.

And I still think that’s going to happen. I don’t know when or how, but I do know that abandoning hope won’t help bring it about.

And I refuse to let the cynics own a chunk of my heart.
