" It’s okay to give in and cry sometimes.. To smile, or rage.

It's okay.. Let it out.

Give yourself a break. You're a human being after all. Release all your emotional package. You don't have to carry it all the time anymore.

Sometimes giving up a fight is necessary to win the great battle.

I'm rooting for you."

—Rahma Djebbari

every single person you know has something in their life and past that is probably worth collapsing to the ground in an uncontrollably sobbing heap over, so be nice to each other and tell good jokes

2023 recap!

you were tired and sleepy

lethargic even

[radiptuk]

I am not anyone's close .

My biggest wish?

“To have my own warm home, and a job that suits me. To do all the things I've dreamed of. To be fine, with a calm mind, free soul, peaceful heart, and eyes without tears. To just live a simple quiet life.

Nothing more.”

[radiptuk]

There's a part of me,

that loves the spaces in between,

where the words remain unspoken,

where gazes linger,

where my hands ache to touch yours,

where emotions seem to almost spill,

where both of us try to,

desperately hold on,

while silently hoping for the other,

to slowly let go,

and free us from the spell,

they put us under.

you were my favourite 'maybe',

the most beautiful lie I ever told myself,

and like the fool I am,

I was happy to believe the lie.

But at the end of the day,

how could I forget that,

all of it was nothing more than,

a far-fetched dream,

only meant to last in my memories?

Me in 5th grade: I will never smoke or drink or do any drugs ever

Me now: I probably wouldn’t do meth

reading alone in your room at sunset with your windows open while the wind caresses your skin is probably the closest thing we have to a cure for the human condition

[radiptuk]

You are wanted. You are needed. You are loved.💕

Thinking about the countless times art and music and cinema and literature have saved and comforted me during difficult times i really owe my happiness to everyone dedicated to their craft

ig: herdrafts I’ve been reading so many ebooks during the lockdown that I’m almost get accustomed to them, despite I miss the feeling of printing papers under my fingertips. I often read in English because it appeal to me better but often I struggle when it comes to approach a book; regardless of genre, choosing what language you want to read, it has a great influence on the reading itself and perhaps on the outcome of the review. Translation sometimes can be better than the original version, maybe when you can’t enjoy the author’s writing you can read the same novel ‘touched’ by the translator work, but you can’t really understand the meaning of the prose or the difference of styles between an author to another, if you are interested in this aspect as well. In short, this was my ranting because often I can’t decide in what language to read.

I want to live according to my own rules.

I don't want to just exist, I want to live and make myself happy."
