some great joys of life Wearing the perfect cheap tank top. Finding a spot in the sun. In the shade. Letting the dogs out. Letting the dawgs out. Spreading the toes. finding in nature all things small dots and speck. Pain relief medication. Deals and sales. Slicing foods. Really

Idk maybe if I get my ears and/or nose pierced that’ll fix everything
Just feeling a little. Yknow. Empty and like every day is a completely neutral dream punctuated by moments of realness.
And not even that these feelings are DIFFERENT or UNIQUE or like i don’t know it’s real life bc I do know it is and i know many humans have felt exactly this way before it’s just annoying

i do, often, think of that quote from wislawa szymborska talking about love and the inexplicability of some of it. "great love is never justified" etc. and it truly isn't. and thank god for that.
"We’re dealing here with the phenomenon of great love. Detached observers always ask in such cases: “So what does she (he) see in him (her)?” Such questions are best left in peace: great love is never justified. It’s like the little tree that springs up in some inexplicable fashion on the side of a cliff: where are its roots, what does it feed on, what miracle produces those green leaves? But it does exist and it really is green—clearly, then, it’s getting whatever it needs to survive."

I was thinking "nah, why would they? not the right vibe" and was going to just assume the answer was no, but...
...I was very surprised to learn that in fact, they did. (close by, that is)
