maybe she writes to serve the quiet forest inside, that long ago decided, to hush was more important than to speak

If you love gorgeous poetry that can be deeply felt, then this collection by @sojourner-hughes-d.bsky.social is definitely worth checking out! "Ultimately, From The Yellow House And On is about moving forward after trauma, accepting what's broken, and appreciating the tender moments." * 💙📚 🌈📚

It actually is very important that you do things that you take pleasure in, regularly. That is part of how you survive the things that feel like they are going to destroy you.

Now more than ever it’s critical to think about how your time and money is being spent. Meta, X, etc. will suffer from having inactive users. Business will suffer if you stop spending your money (as seen with McDonald’s/Starbucks boycotts for 🍉).

Your words are spells. Be careful of the negativity that seeps into your language. Guarding your thoughts and the words you speak is one of the most basic forms of protection. #witchsky

"you can be both kind and c♥︎nt“ is a quote that resonated with me this year, and is exactly the type of energy that i'd like to bring into 2025

If you’re the kind of person who easily forgets what you’ve accomplished, you need a practice for reminding yourself. Count the years, the finished projects, the progress, the praise, count it all up and use it as evidence against the ever present criticism in your head that you’re not doing enough.

A vacation, with no destination, the week before the holidays - definitely the best decision I made in 2024✨
a stack of books on the coffee table with the christmas tree in the background. the books are: heartbreak is the national anthem, taylor swift by the book, emily dickinson meets taylor swift, invisible strings, taylor swift style, taylor swift the stories behind the songs, and taylor swift the eras tour book

The saddest part about the Truman show is that the entertainment company running the show uses actors to serve as his loved ones. Truman experiences the joy of a best friend, the love of his life, and the death of his father, but they are all just actors hitting their marks.

I will remember having read a book and how it made me feel, but unless I wrote down my thoughts about it as soon as I put it down, the details are often lost to a sort of book amnesia. Here are 20 books, off the top of my head, that I haven’t forgotten how they made me feel 🫶🏻 📚 🧵

She's been writing a message in a bottle hoping you can drop everything and meet her in the pouring rain... so when we conduct this post mortem, how did it end? she gave you her best self and begged you to choose her but it's happening again. you kept ignoring her. so you're losing her.
