You have options. I promise you, you have options. Even if you blow up your whole life, change your name and train hop half way across the country- you still have options. So long as you are alive you have choices and chances. If you can’t see them, ask someone else. Ask a stranger or someone who loves you. Anyone not in your situation will have different a perspective. Stay safe and stay alive.
Brushing your teeth at least once every day is better than none at all.
A few hours of sleep is better than none.
A few minutes outside for fresh air is better than none.
Writing a few paragraphs of the essay today is better than procrastinating till later.
Doing something is better than nothing (of course there is exception for some cases).
Do things at a pace which makes you comfortable whilst allowing you to make progress.
You can do this!
Your “best” won’t always be the same every day, quite like the temperatures of a weather forecast for the week, for example, it fluctuates. So please don’t beat yourself up if you were not able to do what you wanted to do for the day. You did what you could. So give yourself a pat on the back. I am proud of you. Tomorrow will be a better day and there definitely will be better days ahead for you.
Romanticizing your life sounds so stupid but it will help you cope. Taking extra time to make a yummie coffee in the morning, sitting outide observing the wind in the trees, writing poems, going to old book stores, watching your childhood favourite movies, listening to romantic jazz, writing in a coffee shop, making sure you have moody lighting in your room, putting on asmr rooms as a background noise while you work. It's not a solution, but it makes things a bit better.
how to live in the moment ✨
- consciously take deeper breaths, turn off your phone, relax your body, get up to drink water and recognise unhelpful thoughts if you’re living on autopilot.
- notice and appreciate what’s around you. see art and poetry in all things.
- when you go on a walk, feel the warmth of sun on your face, notice things no one else notices.
- carry a journal everywhere to record little thoughts, drawings, tickets and memories.
- do not think everyone is judging you, because they aren’t. don’t let something little ruin your whole day. don’t take anything to heart.
- stop unconsciously searching for proof from the world that you’re not good enough. you will seem to find it everywhere. but you are good enough and loveable, you always have been.
- remember what you’re thankful for and let that make you happy for the whole day.
- remember what you’re excited for if you’re feeling sad and your future seems grey.
- appreciate your talents and achievements. don’t quickly brush them off. someone admires you.
- don’t stare at the ground, and smile more, even though no one sees.
- if you are procrastinating, choose a small task and stick to it. when you’re completing one task, do not worry about others.
- when spending time with people, be grateful for their presence, and listen with all your attention, and make them feel good about themselves.
- feel everything, do not bottle thoughts up, and be aware when you’re having a burnout or getting bad again, so you can focus on resting and feeling better.

most of all i hope you all find a reason to wake up and love each day despite it all. i hope you hear the birds singing or you buy a new candle or use a new fabric softener and it inspires you to keep going. each day holds so many possibilities. live to see the different outcomes. i believe in you and I’m proud of you for existing despite it all. you were made to experience life, so let life’s experiences be the reason you continue on.
If you are starting to feel burnt-out, do not be afraid to cut some commitments out, you may argue that if you do - that means you are not productive but in truth the other commitments will really benefit from your improved focus which you have gained. As the saying goes “quality over quantity”, by doing this you are improving the quality of your work and you will get more satisfaction when you reap what you sow.
"your birthday doesnt even matter after you turn 25 nothing even happens-" WRONG. when you are 25 you will try and enjoy so many new foods. you will learn the importance of probiotics and a good ice pack. you will start understanding the meaning of 'im still watching i promise im just resting my eyes'. and. you will learn the importance of a reasonably priced piece of grocery store produce
all you’ve got to do is pick one activity to do tomorrow. One thing to look forward to. Find a new movie or tv show you want to watch. Check out if there are any local bands playing gigs nearby. Find a random new skill to teach yourself. Do your grocery shopping at a different supermarket. Play stardew valley with someone. Find a new recipe to learn how to cook. See what movies are in cinemas near you. Find a niche museum or community centre in your town. Explore a new park. Go to a thrift store. Go sit in the library for a few hours. Get coffee with a loved one. You can’t leave yet, you’ve got that activity to go do. Keep picking activities. I love you. Stay safe.
It’s normal to wish things were different. But it’s a waste of time to dwell on it, and we can miss out the most important things in our life. Remember what you have: your favorite songs, your bed, books, your best friends, pretty sunsets, cute unique features, your dreams and aspirations. Life will never be perfect, but there will always be good things to be happy about at every moment.
When your living space is a mess, don’t ever look around and think you should have managed better. Don’t look at the chaos as all the things you should have done. Look around and think, “Look how exhausted I’ve been. I have been saving my energy to save myself and that is right.” And then ask yourself what is one thing you could do that would make you feel more at home in your space–one thing you can manage right now. If that’s fluffing up your pillows, if that’s putting the cups back in the kitchen, if that’s writing a list of fruit you haven’t had in a while and going out to buy it, if it’s picking up your laundry from the floor and putting it on the chair, if it’s wiping the dust off your crystals–that’s enough. Do what would help you now. It’s okay to be tired. It’s okay to be a mess. It’s enough to do what would help and leave the rest.
fun funeral facts
embalming, the process of chemically preserving a corpse, is typically not required by law. unless you need to transport the body long-distance or postpone the burial, it’s 100% a vanity thing.
a body still rots in air-tight conditions. so “protective” or “sealed” caskets are basically a scam, and anything fancy like metal is a waste of money.
want a beautiful casket for a viewing, but think burning or burying an expensive piece of hardwood is a waste of money and trees? rentals exist.
you don’t need a coffin for cremation. the minimum requirement is that the body be in a “cremation container,” which is a simple cardboard box.
home funerals are an option. you don’t need to hand the body over to a funeral home, and you can keep their involvement to a minimum.
natural burial sites exist. you can have your unembalmed body straight up thrown in the dirt to be tree food, if you want.
there are a lot of funeral homes that will prey on your ignorance and vulnerability in order to get as much money out of you as possible. they may imply optional certain services are legally mandatory, steer you away from cheaper options, charge additional costs for what’s supposed to be all-inclusive services, etc.
one person’s death is another person’s profit. know your rights, do your research, and apply the same scrutiny you would to any other business.
For those of you interested, the youtube channel Ask A Mortician does a lot of videos on taboo death subjects, answers questions and is a huge advocate for natural burials and being present during the actual funeral process so you don’t get taken advantage of by the funeral industry. She’s one of my favourite youtubers and I highly recommend her videos.

“I used to dislike being sensitive. I thought it made me weak. But take away that single trait, and you take away the very essence of who I am. You take away my conscience, my ability to empathize, my intuition, my creativity, my deep appreciation for the little things, my vivid inner life, my deep awareness of others’ pain, and my passion for it all.”

Tell me about the love you've never received and let me fill the void
Tell me about the emptiness you feel and let me fill it with my love
