🤍𓂃 ࣪˖ if you can read this, it means you're still here! which is an achievement in itself. im so proud of you. <3
i have been falling back into some bad habits recently, and thinking about it a lot. i had a really, really bad night last night and this morning i woke up with puffy eyes and a messy room but i felt light.
imagine yourself in december this year. imagine yourself looking back on today and smiling at how far you've come. everything can change in one year. everything can change at any time.
there is a whole entire world for you. the sound of rain on the glass, the way the petals fall in the spring, the way the sun rises in the morning, that stranger that smiled at you on the street, that cute little dog you saw on your way to work or school or wherever you went to this morning.
there are people you haven't even met who are cheering you on. you have so many people admiring you from the sidelines because they're too shy to say it. i have been one of those people and still am. there are people who admire the tiniest things about you; the creases by your eyes when you smile, the cute little dimples on your cheeks, the way your hair gets so messy after being out in the wind, the way you hold yourself with such confidence, the way you try so hard to be better every day even if it's hard.
there are people who love you beyond belief that you've never even met yet. because there is so much to be explored, so much to be learnt, so much to see and so much to meet. 8 billion people. 8 billion. even if it feels like you're surrounded by people who don't love you, who don't want the best for you, who don't take care of you and admire you half as much as they should, they are not the last people in the world, and they never will be. there are 8 billion people! think about that for a second! there is someone who is wishing for you the way you are wishing for them! there are people who have so much love for you they haven't even had the chance yet to express!! that's so beautiful!!! <3
there are people who do love you beyond belief, even if you guys don't talk anymore. there are people who smile when they look back on you guys time together, from your childhood best friend to that girl you complimented in the street years and years and years ago. there are people who look back on your memory fondly and still love you and are so happy to see you flourishing.
its okay to be sensitive, its okay to get upset by things. not everything is going to be okay all the time, and neither are you. you can't have good without the bad, and the good always comes afterwards better than you'd ever imagined. life is feeling everything deeply and learning from it, no matter how hard it was or still is. you can always make it through because the most sensitive people are the strongest people.
there is so much life left. you are so young, no matter how old you are. there is so much you can do, so much you will do, so many achievements to be made, so many friends to meet, so many experiences you can learn from. you will get your happily ever after and you will make something beautiful out of your life because life is messy and imperfect and constantly growing and that is beauty.
please keep living, because there is so much to live for. even if you want to go back to that home of sadness you've built over the years, even if growth is messy and uncomfortable, even if things aren't going too great right now, even if it's not everything you thought it would be, you've survived your entire life with you helping you through it even if you've been alone.
you've picked yourself back up every. single. time. and are still making an active effort. that is extremely strong and you've done more than 90% of other people would do in your position and all the things you've been through. you've tried so hard and you should be so proud of yourself. and you should keep going for, because the life you're dreaming of is so close. please smile. please never give up. there is so much left to live for. i love you & you should do the same.
"Letters weren't supposed to be used in maths. Maths would be easier if it didn't have letters." Actually it would be harder.
I appreciate abstraction isn't easy for everyone but mathematics is better off for it.
The whole point of math is to use letters and symbols instead of numbers, actually. Math is abstraction. Math is the generalization, the blueprint. All the other sciences can take the skeletons provided by math and specialize them for their needs (i.e. add suitable numbers and units of measurements). In my humble opinion, as a person who also has a degree in engineering, "math but with numbers" is computer science.
I tutor kids in maths (mostly from grades 7 to 9), and most of them struggle greatly with understanding why the fuck they suddenly need to use letters. They tell me that this way they aren’t doing anything concrete, so it feels even more useless and confusing than arithmetics did. I always give them the same explanation: I tell them that mathematicians are just very, very lazy people. Their whole goal is to make every calculation needed for practical reasons take shorter, for every proof to be written as consisely as possible. And doesn’t that sound half bad, does it? So because mathematicians are soooo lazy, they don’t want to repeat the same calculations if they can help it. That’s why they use formulas and letters! If they solve one arithmetic problem, like "how long of a ribbon do you need to wrap a cubic box if the length of its edge is 15cm and you need another 10cm to make the bow at the top" then that only answers that one question, but if they replace the numbers with letters, then that formula they create answers every arithmetic question stated like that, but with different numbers.
When teaching kids, "mathematicians are just very lazy people, that’s why they (…)" has been my go-to explanation for many things. It truly works wonders in terms of convincing the child that maths isn’t some Evil Devilish Subject That Is Never Useful
Fuck. This is the best one.
Does anyone else with maladaptive daydreaming get so immersed into the goings-on of your daydream to where it causes physical and emotional distress? Like hyperempathy?
Like if a para/character gets a traumatic brain injury from a head injury, you FEEL the injury radiating on the back of your head for extended periods of time? And whatever they struggle to do after the fact, you feel mentally disorganized to the point where you slightly struggle with that to? (I say slight because of course I have not actually acquired said trauma, and my mind is simply being sluggish and feels like it can't separate the para's body from my own).
