the way ivan aivazovsky looks at the sea…i think…i think that’s what love looks like.
love is surrounding yourself with people who see you this clearly
A moment of peace
the water is so clear….. he’s flying
anyways, there’s a difference between not wanting kids, not wanting to be around kids, and being a hateful little imp who creates a personality on hating a living creature on the basis that they need care, attention, and are not capable of expressing themselves in a way that would make that care and attention a little easier. it’s not cute, it’s not funny, and it directly affects the way children are treated, which affects how they view themselves as they grow up.
treating children as a burden is evil, point blank period. a child can never be a burden. they have no choice but to depend on their caretakers or they will die. if you don’t want to have the responsibility of taking care of a child, don’t fucking have kids. don’t agree to take care of someone else’s kids. don’t go places where kids are welcome and frequent. unlike them, you have a choice where you go, who you hang around, what you do in your day to day life.
children are experiencing the exact same world we are with absolutely no reference for what the heck is going on. to treat that as an imposition on others is an act of abuse, at the end of the day, and it definitely makes you a bad person.
stop adding “it’s okay to hate kids, just don’t be mean to them” onto posts like this. there is no good reason to hate kids. you need to get therapy if you hate children. it is not healthy to hate a group of people on the basis of “they need too much help”. that is a heartless, cruel way of thinking and you seriously need psychiatric assistance if that is how you are.
Because it needed to be said...
These times are hard. These times are cold. Our ancestors suffered much and hoped their grandchildren would not suffer more. Many lived and many left. They granted us wisdom to live a healthier life and provided us with history, so we can avoid unremitting the same mistakes. But we allegedly the “smartest” creatures to reside this land never learned. Yes, right now we can fly like a bird and communicate without sending one. Yet, the economy is a mess, pandemics are now worldwide, mother nature is seeking revenge…
We have so many common enemies and problems but humans still manage to start beef with each other. Many do wish for world peace but who is ready to work towards it? Empty words never fueled change. These times might be hard. These times might be cold. No one can change the world, but we can change ourselves. Nonetheless, it’s never too late. So let’s be a tiny bit kinder. A tiny bit respectful. A tiny bit forgiving. A tiny bit understanding. Yes, we look, think and live differently. Still, we were born equal and were all the result of the same miracle of two cells uniting as one. We come into life the same way and leave all in death’s embrace. One of the most sagacious words to live by are: “Be the change that you wish to see in the world.” ― Mahatma Gandhi. Silence and indifference are no longer a choice when it results in other’s blood being spilled. It could have been YOUR blood they are stepping on if God decided to put you in the victims’ side. So what will you do and how will you live?

- good vibes to fill your room when you need to shut out the world and finish that essay or let out stress or celebrate irony
- it’s a warm, slow day; sunlight pours through the window and time feels honeyed as you curl up with a book and a cup of tea and no responsibilities
- on a road trip that leads to the sea; falling in love with nature and life and music and your best friend; feeling at peace
- heartbreak, missed connections, star crossed lovers and falling out of love; whatever the opposite of a love song is
- the hazy feeling of a suburbian love affair, somewhere between realitiy and a sonic dreamscape
- old crush whose name and laughter still linger in your mind and it’s a vague kind of longing but oh, it’s definitely there
- when you need to either astral project or escape into a seperate plane of existance, just for a little while
- it’s anywhere between one and six am but you’re still awake and that very fact spirals you into a feeling of equal parts exhaustion and existentialism
weird how nothing about u is like, too small or too dumb to know bc it all comes together to become YOU. sending your friend a picture of your favorite snack is saying something important whether u realize it or not. wheres that palahniuk quote
zoo wee mama...
as much as the concept of Jesus being a fairly normal lad has its charms, im personally very intrigued by the idea of him being just… extremely weird. not even in a mystical sense, just…….staggeringly BIZZARRE.
you go to the well to get some water, and here’s Miriam’s boy, staring at the sky, completely still. his expression is unreadable. you hazard a hello and ask how he’s doing, and he slowly, unblinkingly, lowers his gaze on you (he’s 8 and is missing his frontal teeth, not that this is making you any less uncomfortable) and says “I cannot speak of the state of my being, Nathan son of Saul, my brother, but rejoice for the water you shall take today will be as pure as the soul of the children of Heaven”
…you start sweating
normal person in 1st century Nazareth: making my way downtown, walking fast
*sees J boy, 8 yo, staring at you from across the street*
normal person: walking faster
even funnier, the only person 100% on board with his Prophetic Kid Talk is his mother Miriam, an otherwise placid, absolutely normal woman around 25 or so
kid JC, coming home at twilight, a single white dove following him and chirping with weirdly human-like precision:

This post is so Christian, but it’s the spicy kind of Christian that gets you murdered by other Christians for heresy, so I’m torn.
literally biggest form of compliment i’ve ever gotten
