  • apply the principle of charity
  • it is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in the broken world. - invitation, mary oliver
  • you can still make a beautiful life for yourself even if you feel like you’ve lost many years to grief or darkness or wounds that won’t close
  • good morning, you have to be the thing that saves you (๑'ᵕ'๑)⸝*
  • do not be daunted by the enormity of the world’s grief. do justly, now. love with mercy, now. walk humbly now. you are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.
  • never apologise for being obsessed. read all day. work all day. run for hours. forget time exists. be everywhere but be a ghost. turn off the world and create your own. let craft become compulsion. positive obsession is a gift, disguised as a curse.
