*slams reblog like the fist of an angry god*
the politics of light and dark are everywhere in our vocabulary…psa to writers: subvert this, reveal whiteness and lightness as sometimes artificial and violent, and darkness as healing, the unknown as natural
Es ist nicht alles Gold was glänzt. Unsere Autorin erzählt, wie das Leben an einer Elite-Uni wie Oxford mit einer extremen psychischen Belastung einhergeht.
Even if you’re unemployed, even if you’re taking time off from school, even if nobody is calling and making plans with you, get out of bed, take a shower, put on clean clothes, wear some cologne or perfume, turn all the lights on, do some laundry, clean up a little bit.
Doing all this stuff causes a shift in your perspective. Do it in spite of your situation.
That’s the only way to create sustainable happiness, because if your behavior is dictated by your circumstances, you’re always going to be miserable.
Don’t let the world determine your mindset. Let your mindset determine how you view the world.
Липсва ми мълчанието ти
Липсва ми неловкия ти смях
Липсва ми погледа ти по мен
Липсват ми прегръдките ти
Липсва ми ръката ти,
която пасва идеално в моята
Липсва ми гласа ти
Липсва ми първата ни целувка
и всяка следваща
Липсва ми парфюма ти
Липсват ми историите ти
за първия ти домашен любимец
за детството ти
за родителите ти
Липсва ми да гледам очите ти,
зяпащи моите
и само чакащи
устните ни да се доближат
Липсваш ми
So I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time, take all the thoughts that my brain chews up and digest them into actual structured essays. I’m so excited to finally splurge my analysis on anything that moves me, be it a film, philosophy passage, life experience, or song. A little bit about me? I’m a 19-year-old black girl from the UK/Grenada who pines after all things purple/philosophical. I entertain myself by picking apart the meanings in things, hoping to find something deeper, and there usually always is if you look at it for long enough. Anyway, I hope you enjoy all of these words I’m crafting and never be afraid to slide into my ask/comment sections. I love questions.
