#anniversaries are weird

[always-coffee]

the only compass worth following

Today would’ve been a milestone birthday for my mother. She’s been gone over a decade now, and it still feels infinitely weird sometimes that she is. She was my fiercest champion and the biggest pain in my ass. And here are some things I learned in the wake of her loss.

After she died, I promised myself to be braver. Every damn chance I got. Did this make for some poor decisions? Yes. Did this make for adventures? Also yes. A big death can really knock your heart offkilter, and while I might make different choices now, they were the best choices I could make at the time.

The point of life is to love. In any and all directions. Pets and family and friends and people you’d like to be more than friends with. Throw all your fears out the window and look inside your own heart. The heart can be messy, but it’s never wrong. It’s the only compass worth following, even if something seems silly. Worried how it might look? No. Worry has no place in your decision making. Don’t let fear make your decisions.

We’re not here to make safe choices all the time. We’re here to run in the direction our heart is showing us, damn how it looks or how it might seem to other people. True regret only lies in the undone and unsaid. Even when I’ve had my heart horribly broken, I never regret the love. (Give me tequila, and I will tell you those stories.)

You have to let people love you while there’s still breath in your lungs. While you and them are still here. Your heart is not meant to be silenced. Listen to it. Because life is weird, and the path is never, ever straight. Sometimes, you’ve got to step off it. Sometimes, you’ve got to start over. And sometimes, you run straight into something wonderful you could not have dreamed off.

So, if you’re reading this, take a risk today. Like someone? Tell them or show them. (I am often the person that goes fuck it, and tests the waters. If I can do it, you can too.)Want to run after a goal? Take the first step. Want to learn something new? Sign up for a class.

Do. The. Thing.  

Love fiercely, but also? Allow yourself to be loved. You are fucking wonderful.

Soooooo David Tennant comes this close 🤏🏽 to kissing his prosthetic double’s face in this video. Is he trying to break the internet?

[Transcript of a portion:

Host: What do you think?

DT: I think it’s beautiful. I think I might kiss you.

H: …You’re kissing yourself on the top of my forehead

DT: *leans in to kiss and then backs away* *says quietly to camera* I think that’s weird. I think that might not…*trails off and then touches the hair* ooh there’s a lot of product!]

[um-its-ace]

Why does David Tennant keep playing immortal, gender queer characters who get their shit rocked by a single cup of coffee?

RTD got his hands on that Disney budget and immediately thought of a bunch of funny gremlin puppets he could make the villains of every episode and I love him for that
