aesthetic for @live-deliberately

  • loose papers and pens scattered at the bottom of your bag
  • scribbling notes in the margins of books
  • velvet seats in an old theater, a luxurious red
  • keeping a list of your favorite words
  • antique star charts pinned to your wall
  • getting lost in a topic you’re particularly interested in
  • dried roses in a crystal vase
  • debating with friends about books you read in class
  • researching the transcendentalists
  • rereading your favorite books for comfort
  • pressed flowers and wax-sealed letters
  • staying up late to perfect an essay for english class
  • stargazing on a cloudless night
  • writing quotes from your favorite books in the margins of your notes for other classes
  • a love for the power of human language
  • performing scenes from shakespeare by yourself, memorizing soliloquies
  • learning the constellations
