✨ Romanticising your life ✨

If your life seems boring and mundane, this is the mindset you need! You don't need expensive clothing, beauty products or other items for this as it is purely a switch in your thoughts and the way you view the world.

Here is my two cents on how to best do it:

Gratitude journaling Take some time at the end of the day dedicated to journaling. Have a segment on what was good that particular day. Write down small things that made you happy. (e.g. sunrays falling onto your pillow in the morning, birds chirping as you go to work, buying a new fountain pen and using it for the first time etc.)

Write a list of aesthetic moments Either match this to the aesthetic you're trying to achieve or just generally admiring moments you find aesthetic. Go over this list and look for these things and opportunities to incorporate into your day-to-day life. A list for the "that girl" aesthetic may look like this: waking up to the first sunrays of the day, the feel of a new journal, making a pretty-looking breakfast for yourself to look at only, being the first person in the gym in the morning, ink stains on your hands after journaling, pretty colour-coordinated study notes, the smell of a new book, seeing your breath in the air on an early morning run, ...

Take photos or short videos of romantic moments in your life When you have collected a number of these, make a collage or a short video to summarise all the memories. Try to look at the finished product through the eyes of a stranger. It's only a snippet of your life, viewed through this romanticised lense.

Move into the new mindset Once you have realised how many beautiful little things your life consists of, try to notice them conciously in your everyday life with or without recording them. Find the beauty and special-ness in the details and moments that pass in the blink of an eye.

At the end, don't forget that sometimes life is ugly and bad things happen and that's okay. If you can't find special moments in some or even most days, that's fine too. Sometimes our mental health just makes us blind to what's positive and some people's lives just aren't that pretty in their current circumstances.

This whole idea is only a mental exercise for more positivity, gratitude and appreciation in your life and is in no way, shape or form mandatory.

The fact that they took Stardust off Netflix on June 1st is homophobic

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.

Shoutouts to the lighting in the scene where Aragorn is explaining what the black riders are. It lives rent free in my head. Like they were popping off so hard.

Honestly if you aren't looking at your sibling during church any time among us is said then I don't trust you

I don't think 13 year olds should be allowed to attend church. not for any religious reason but because my brother pokes me and grins whenever the words "among us" appear in the liturgy

Puki, I think you are just "the internet"

ur an internet influencer

I'm more like an internet 'thing'

I thought today - the TV show I'd really like to see is one about a medieval monastery.

You could have all kinds of characters: the pious guy who joined because he wanted to serve God, the son born out of wedlock sent there to cover up his parents' shame, the geek who wanted to study Latin but couldn't afford to go into university, the former knight sick of violence and afraid for his soul... Plus monasteries were centres of pilgrimage and places where criminals could take refuge, so we can have a lot of characters who crop up for a few episodes and leave.

Some plotlines I thought of:

Our relics aren't bringing in the pilgrims the way they used to - what do we do?

A women fleeing an abusive marriage has taken shelter in the monastery - how will the brothers respond to having a women in their midst?

One of the monks wants to leave - will the abbot accept or not?

A murderer has taken refuge in the abbey, and the abbot decides to try and save his soul - what will happen?

People are coming to the monastery for food during the famine, but the monastery is itself short of food - how will this be dealt with?

War has broken out between two local lords, and the monks attempt to broker a treaty - will it work?

I've already mentioned some reasons why I think this setting would lend itself to television, but I'd also love to make it for two other reasons:

Get people to understand how weird medieval religion could get, but also that, within its own frame of reference, it was a reasonable and consistent belief system.

Show people that the Middle Ages consisted of more than just muddy people stabbing each other and burning scientists at the stake.
