Books and cats.

Self-care isn't selfish; it's necessary. Take the time to prioritize your well-being.

“Books are where things are explained to you; life is where things aren’t. I’m not surprised some people prefer books.”

“We are sun and moon, dear friend; we are sea and land. It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is: each the other's opposite and complement.”

Hermann Hesse, Narcissus and Goldmund (1930).

“I will read long books and the journals of dead writers. I will feel closer to them than I ever felt to people I used to know before I withdrew from the world. It will be sweet and cool this friendship of mine with dead poets, for I won’t have to touch them or answer their questions. They will talk to me and and not expect me to answer. And I’ll get sleepy listening to their voices explain the mysteries to me. I’ll fall asleep with the book still in my fingers, and it will rain.”

- Tennessee Williams

Fyodor Dostoevsky’s “Notes from Underground” starting with “I am a sick man.... I am a spiteful man. I am an unattractive man.” just to be immediately followed by “I believe my liver is diseased.” Is so ridiculously funny to me.
