do you ever look at an elderly person and see the wrinkles on their face and realize they’ve survived every hardship life has thrown at them. it is such a triumph to grow old.

the world can be unbelievably cruel but there’s also times where being patient and working through the hard times results in getting everything you could never imagine. Sometimes time does heal the wounds.

i went to a lavender farm and while i was in the gift shop a woman told her grandson “here, smell this. lavender was your great nan’s favourite scent.” and that stuck w me in such a crazy way because

1. she was trying to pass along the memory of her mother to this child who likely never met her.

2. she was at a lavender farm. and it was her mother’s favourite scent.

sometimes i get writers block and then i realize poetry is everywhere if i just pay attention

how sweet it is to add an x to the end of a message. like despite our distance, i love you. i wish i was there to love you but until then. x.

Don’t cling to pain. Don’t expect happiness. Don’t fear loss. Accept reality as it is. Enjoy the good. Endure the bad. Don’t make a big deal out of anything. Be selfless, and unconditionally kind and just, without ever expecting a reward. We’re all going to end up as piles of dust, so why not be nice to each other and get those pleasant fuzzies?
