#learning how to live

i like creating meaningless sentences and throwing words into walls. i love walking the ink drop down and dry and i will laugh even if nobody else sees it because i made it. maybe what i say is meaningless but that's contradictory. it has meaning to me.

maybe there can be meaning in meaninglessness

and maybe we can have fun instead of worrying about the specifics and going back over sentences to double check if it's sophisticated enough

i want to go back to writing sentences with a pencil in fifth grade as my teacher talks about something i won't remember, scribbling down on a singular piece of paper i shove in a binder only to lose it years and years later because i was sad but still later years later i kickstarted my life and i never forgot that poem i wrote on that blank piece of paper that i will never see again

there is meaning in your definition of meaninglessness

maybe you hold more meaning than you think you do

Summary:

Talon will never regret leaving. He isn't as stupid as what people say. Talon knew that the court would kill him sooner or later. Most likely sooner. Talon knew he was useless. He was told that enough.

And finally, this year came to an end. As the fireworks shine in the sky, I'm sitting on my bed. No parties, no drinking. No friends around. Just me, Jerry, my whale plushie and my plants. This year was the first brick of a life I'm not allowed to discover just yet. I've been more alone in this year than in my 21 years of life. And I lived for so little. I remember how many times I thought about ending it all, and being this close to death that her breath felt like a delicate veil. I've been betrayed and abandoned in ways my heart didn't know it was possible to even experience. I've faced traumas I didn't know existed. O made some new friends along the way and lost others. I talked to myself an uncountable amount of times. Monologs and poetry have saved me this year. And I want to thank the hopecore, who taught me so much in so little time. I found out so much about myself.

I learned a lot.

I've changed a lot. And a lot changed.

Im learning to leave the past behind. I'm learning to be myself a bit more. I'm learning how to receive love, affection, care and kindness from others. I'm learning to be kind, tender, and delicate. I'm learning to set boundaries. I'm learning to let people go if they don't wish to stay any longer next to me. I'm learning to be alone. I'm learning to live.

I ask for one wish only to the Universe: May this year be kinder to my soul and heart. May this year be kinder, to me.

Happy New Year kid.

just because it's easy doesn't mean it won't take time

was recently having talks about saving up for a several-week vacation with my partner and he said something that i seriously cannot stop thinking about and i need to Ask The Audience

this is not cumulative, you must have spent over 14 calendar days outside of your hometown in one stretch to be able to hit Yes

i’ve never asked for this before but if you could rb for reach that’d be cool, this is a straight up potential worldview-shattering revelation right here and i need data if im gonna shatter my dang worldview

Winter always felt scary in some way. And so i tried to hide myself from it.

But this winter feels different. The cold is not as sharp as I remember it to be. The snow is not as aggressive as I thought it was. Instead, I looked at the sky tonight, and the snow never fell more delicately on my skin.

I stand in the middle of the street, and I cant help but smile.

I dont feel afraid to face the winter alone anymore.

when you're part of a group with structural power over another goup, you really do gotta just learn to say "i am not exempt from 'fuck 'em' when relevant" whenever someone expresses frustration with you or people like you.
