feels like im always recovering. when do i get to live

"it's okay to rest for as long as you need from burnout" how long is it actually going to take though. there's stuff i wanna do.

endlessly inspired by women who take good care of themselves

especially older women. my inspiration.

May the next 7 months of this year surprise you in beautiful ways.

with the right person, love actually feels like returning back home to yourself

leaving this on someones parked car after i ram into it

still don’t really understand how some people have trouble just being nice

the glow up nobody talks about is the one where you stop reacting emotionally to everything

Perceive yourself as a successful person. Perceive yourself as a lovable person. Perceive yourself as the person who’s worthy of all the best in life.

The older I get the more convinced I become that the most genuinely attractive quality a woman can have is the visible impression that her life is full without you in it. Not performed aloofness, not manufactured scarcity, not games, an actual life with actual substance and actual joy that does not have a vacancy sign hanging in the window waiting for someone to come along and make it worthwhile. That quality is built through the accumulation of genuine experiences, genuine interests, genuine friendships, genuine ambitions, and it cannot be faked in any sustained way because it is either there or it is not. Build the life first. The rest follows from that and follows easily.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

you don't just marry a person. you marry their ecosystem. their food. the temperature of their house. their sleep schedule. their friends.their family. their way of moving through the world
