yeah. bad things are part of life. but yknow what? so is the feeling of a soft, fluffy blanket and the taste of chocolate cookies and fruit flavored tea and the bright blue of the sky and the sound of quiet birdsong and the way the sunlight hits your backyard just after noon.

Vladimir Nabokov, Letters to Véra
turns out that being compassionate towards myself during moments of uncertainty and stress is the best thing i can do for myself
“I wish you joy”
Jane Austen, from a letter to her brother Frank (26 July 1809)
something so dizzying about being kissed in a dream. faraway and transient ofc in its non-existence and yet. lingering?? you wake up with your mouth full of that imaginary thing. you wake up still slow and timeless and wondering. milk and half-eaten apple. there’s simply no core to throwaway
why is it SO incredibly sweet when a stranger smiles at u like. i don’t know you but here’s a piece of happiness in this crazy world. im giving u this smile because it’s all i have to offer, and i want to offer you something. you’ll forget my face, probably, but you’ll remember this, at least for the rest of the day, or the afternoon, or your lunch break. hope you had a good day. Hope the rest of it is better.
