but now I can name it with a song

Doomed by the narrative [redeemed by the Savior’s blood]

music where women are yelling and screaming in my ear >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I feel like a lot of people get "All Art is Political" confused with "All Art is made with Political Intentions" which is not the same.

People on Tumblr love sharing information about themselves no matter how asinine it is. And I'm the same way. Everybody tell me what the last thing you drank was.

The thing about courage is I always have this “I was brave once but this is again” reaction like it’s hard and exhausting and crippling to push myself to do the scary thing all the time and I don’t think I have it in me to just continuously make that choice, but actually making that choice is often what gives you the energy and rejuvenation to do the next brave thing, because it is a good choice and that means you will experience some good about it, even if there’s bad and scary too, and the good is self sustaining. The good is life!

Genuinely love Aldi so much

SCROLL BACK UP THIS IS A DRAWING

music isnt real art it's basically cheating bc of course your stupid primate brain gets emotionally aroused at even a simple chord, at even just a sustained note, at the repeating pattern of rain hitting the roof of your house, at the white noise of your fan as you fall asleep at night. oh big deal, you made me cry when you put a bunch of sounds together. a songbird could do that to me.

enough about the horrors. let's hear it for the wonders outside of human comprehension

I think it's sad how so much of us project our own self-hatred and perfectionism onto God. We conflate our own critical voice with His. I think God would be happy if all we managed to do was get out of bed today, or if we could only do the absolute minimum. I think He would be pleased with all our efforts, even if they seemed small, even if they're not "the best". If all you're doing each day is what you can do, then God sees your efforts and will help you along the way. God loves us even if all we can do is the bare minimum, because His love isn't contingent on our actions. We can feel safe putting aside all perfectionism and just trying the best we are able to do, even if it's something seemingly small and insignificant.
