A Murakami Protagonist Day*

a murakami protagonist day*

do the dishes

make your bed

read a book in silence

get the groceries for one or two meals

have a beer

go for a walk

(get a phone call from nobody)

follow a cat through the neighborhood

do the laundry

change your sheets

sit on your couch and listen to a full album

take a shower

sit on your balcony at night

go to a diner alone and have a bite to eat

watch people from afar

take a train to the next town

call an old friend

clean your room or house

take a nap

have a cup of tea

paint or draw

air out the room

stretch or do yoga

(* murakami’s descriptions of his protagonists’ day to day lives always seem so mundane and calming to me that I thought I’d list a few activities that fit right in and might calm me, too.)

life is weird because one minute you're 13 wondering if you'll ever see the age of 18 and the next you're 28 and excited to go shopping for lamps

I know this will bother unhealed adults, but the real world, more often than not, does give you second chances and do overs. Very rarely are things set in stone. And people, especially young people, deserve to know that. Because lording the idea that they can never mess up, even once, does a lot more damage than good.
