My Rose Window

this time scrolling social media as a substitute for genuine human connection will work. i know it

sorry I didn't mean to start tearing up as soon as I start trying to talk about my feelings, my bad

i’m a simple girl i see a man with big arms and a kind heart and i get a little stupid

I find community everywhere I go and I love and value that so much about my life, and as I have gotten older I have realized that this is not because I am the greatest con artist master manipulator alive hiding my evil heart and corrupted soul from everyone and coercing them through subterfuge into caring about me. Actually all I am is lovely

Relationships are not a game. Quit the "well they didn't answer my text for two hours yesterday so now I'm gonna wait two hours to answers theirs." Quit the "I'm not gonna tell them that I'm upset cause if they really care they'll notice and if they don't notice they don't really care." Quit the "I'm not gonna text first cause it's their turn." Quit all of that. If you want to talk to them, talk to them. If you want to see them, ask them if they want to hang out. If you care about them, let them know. If you have something to say, say it. Stop playing all those silly mind games. It's a waste of everyone's time.

Full offense but your writing style is for you and nobody else. Use the words you want to use; play with language, experiment, use said, use adverbs, use “unrealistic” writing patterns, slap words you don’t even know are words on the page. Language is a sandbox and you, as the author, are at liberty to shape it however you wish. Build castles. Build a hovel. Build a mountain on a mountain or make a tiny cottage on a hill. Whatever it is you want to do. Write.

I don’t remember if i’ve reblogged this before… but it is still an important reminder

walk humbly and love genuinely
