Woman of Action

a big lesson for me was learning that most things are not as fragile as I’d believed. missing a class, or turning in a bad assignment, won’t instantly destroy your professor’s opinion of you. accidentally saying something harsh won’t make your friend want to end the friendship. it takes work to repair these things - it takes effort and research and sometimes a sincere apology - but you can do that because they’re not irreparably broken. what you’ve worked to build, in academia and in relationships and in life, is stronger and more enduring that your mind may teach you to believe. don’t let imagined fragility lead you to giving up

I just think it’s important to understand that “you’re always going to be mentally ill” isn’t the same thing as “you’re always going to be unhappy”

young adulthood is extremely lonely but also wildly freeing. i’ve gotten coffee at three different cafes today

I love how muppets walk I wish I could walk like that

i just find. it so weird that our, reading voice? obeys instructions set! by little: squiggles and - dots even (if they) don’t make sense;

sometimes i actually get my shit together but then i lose it again like 2 days later
