New medieval peasant cultural exchange post. Medieval peasant shows you the real night sky and you light on fire and explode.

i think the western world has made us so caught up on having a purpose and finding it for our whole entire lives. some indigenous cultures believe we’re alive and here just as trees and animals are: to be here and to beautiful and strange, to simply just be. we don’t need to achieve anything to be valid in our humanness.

"You might not struggle with friendship. You might struggle with the kind of socializing that’s always been expected of you. What if you’re not awkward, but attuned? What if you’re not boring, but deep? What if you’re not less than others — but just not built for the shallow-end of connection?"

you deserve relationships that are good for you

I’m such a slut for casual intimacy. Like yesss rest your chin on my shoulder while we're in line at the grocery store, I live for that shit.

you have done all you can for today. don’t worry: it’s enough

sometimes i wish i could grab my childhood self and shake them by the shoulders and say YOU'RE GOOD. YOU'RE WORTH LOVING. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHOSE LIVES ARE MADE BETTER BECAUSE OF YOU. YOU ARE NOT A BURDEN. YOU ARE NOT DAMNED. SOMEDAY YOU WILL CRY OVER SUNSETS AND POETRY MORE THAN YOUR OWN PAIN. I NEED YOU TO REMEMBER THAT YOU'RE GOOD. YOU'RE WORTH LOVING. but i can't go back in time, so i say it to myself now. because i believe there's a future version of me looking back on this moment feeling the exact same way.

I romanticise everything because I am made of love and starlight

Today may be hard, tomorrow may be hard, but one day you will look back and realize how strong you are.
