Do What I Cannot

09.10.2024 // day 230 // trying to be present.

same old. reading, writing, drinking coffee. made a jar of honey lemon ginger tea mix/syrup even though it's going to be summer soon. i'm all out of words.

I Have No Better Plan.

Learn something new every day, and you’ll soon be a decade ahead of everyone else.

There are screams inside me that I can't stop. Even though I try to keep my face still, I'm afraid that one day I'll dissolve and disappear. I have to continue to stay calm. Calm down, relax. Don't show your feelings. Just don't.

the relationship between a person and the native flora and fauna of where they grew up is something that can actually be so personal

at the end of the day it’s just you and your silly little life. so go on, enjoy it, be the person you want to be.

Red squirrel/ekorre. 

I saw this a few minutes ago.

Anyway on a lighter note in the vein of the “let yourself be a beginner” post:

I love it and I wish people would work on the skill of being a beginner

bc it really IS a skill. it’s acquired and honed.

being willing to learn to find humor in the process of learning and your mistakes. learning to tolerate frustration and confusion. learning to pace yourself when you want to rush past discomfort. learning how you like to learn. and should the time come—learning to take take critique and correction.

please please please work on being a beginner you never know what you may fall in love with and who you might meet thru your interests
