so you dated the wrong person and learned a hard lesson. you chose the wrong major and had to start over again. you cherished a friend who backstabbed you. it sucks, but it’s also going to work out. that’s life; you learn, hurt, love, cry, laugh, and keep going. you experience setbacks and you grow and it’s all okay.
she has a willatine for you ☺️

“I watch him in the kitchen, and I think of how much it hurts to love somebody. How deep the hurt is, how almost unbearable. It’s not the love that hurts; it’s the possibility of anything happening to the object of your love.”

that deep sea creatures post really is so true there is literally not a shred of sunlight down there the near-freezing temps are insane and the weight of the entire OCEAN will crush ur bones to powder in a heartbeat of course it is not going to be pretty it is not going to be pleasing it will be nothing but horror and yet? and yet there is life. and yet it is home. to some, it is home. the response should be awe quite frankly.

my favorite love language is trying, actually
like when people try to learn your hobbies or try to play the same sports that you play in an effort to get closer to you, people who try to love you the way you love people, people who will go to places you want to visit just for your sake, people remembering, putting in an effort. just. trying
You need to draw and make art or else all the images will stay in your head and you'll get sick
