still full of love

the fact that i am constantly saying strange and unpleasant things is just part of my charm

stop trying to be palatable, stop trying to be palatable, stop

i give u full permission to be weird. i am signing your permission slip

Why does it feel weird and intimate to mention that someone was in even the most innocuous of your dreams? Sorry my subconscious decided to think about you for a second. You were a curator at an ice cream museum that was also my second grade classroom. If you even care.

“That isn’t who I want to be so I will simply not become it” are words I repeat to myself often these days.

Continuing to be warm and soft and open to the possibilities of life even when it seems hopeless and you’re heartbroken and soul sick does actually work btw. Like there will be love around you again and real recognizes real

girl chill there’s literally all kinds of everything everywhere

i believe you can always get back to yourself. you can always soften into being again. no matter how long you might be stuck in a pattern of unhappiness, of being jaded, of feeling guarded from the world in some way. there is always a path back. give yourself a chance to find it.

I HAVE TO DO THE WORK SO THAT MY LIFE CAN BE DIFFERENT AND I CAN REAP THE BENEFITS
