merciful death !

“purgaytory” being a canon ao3 tag for spn is so funny

the concept of purgatory being so abject that it suspends The Symbolic, thus enables a man and an Angel to make love to each other oh

as an angel who wasn’t even supposed to be In the narrative and who Keeps disrupting it, Cas is the biggest outlier of The Symbolic on god’s green earth, angels are part of the symbolic of course but Cas’ presence disrupts and questions god’s symbolic order, the concept of an Angel with free will roaming the earth and disrupting the symbolic law for a guy from Kansas everything is so romantic

I think part of getting better is complete ego death. Like you’re not above setting a timer for 5 minutes and focusing on a task. You’re not above doing a very simple 3 minute workout to start. You’re not above reading for 10 minutes a day when you first get out of your reading slump, even if you used to read for hours. You’re not above starting slow and then building up to where you want to be/where you once were. What you are above is total inertia. Doing something really is better than doing nothing. Radically accept where you are, radically accept your limits, and go from there. Don’t let your ego get in the way.
