death to nonchalance. romanticise your existence to an unreasonable degree. be gloriously delusional about how good it can get. inconvenience yourself for the sake of love. gush about your passions. get obsessed. get invested. be a fool for the right things. adore your people with your whole chest. devote yourself to something far greater than yourself. get dolled up for the most mundane activities imaginable. smile with your teeth. giggle shamelessly. kiss longer & slower. have a signature everything. accumulate hilarious stories. love so hard it rewires others’ beliefs about love. be someone God clearly had fun making. let people know they made your day. make someone’s day. take spontaneity seriously. send five voice notes in a row, because why wouldn’t you? leave people better than you found them. be so infatuated with your babies faces you take approximately 400 photos of them a day. gush. just gush!!

stay away from people who get unreasonably mad when they see you romanticizing your life, valuing yourself or beauty. i see it too many times. people love to project their insecurities and issues onto others, instead of putting in the work and energy to heal themselves. life is too short to view everything in such a negative light.

silenced notifications, long lunches with loved ones, time spent in nature, enjoying a delicious meal, organising your home, reading a hardcover book, seeing the full moon reflecting on the ocean and listening to classical music on a rainy afternoon.

The ability to have nice conversations with strangers and especially store employees will save your everyday life from greyness

there is a sweetness in the early morning silence.
