Please, Keep Writing. Keep Drawing. Keep Painting. Please Keep Making Your Art No Matter How Many May

you will make it out alive. you will have done it. that future version of you exists. a happy one, one that looks back at you and is so glad you did not give up.

You can always start again. Clean out your social media. Create a new account for your new taste in music. Study or work in a new city. Start socialising with new people. Choose a new signature scent and style and purge the outdated parts of yourself. If you don’t like where you’re at, but you don’t know what to do about it - try starting again.

₍ᐢ◍˘(❢)˘◍ᐢ₎ 💭🍵 this is a protector bear. he will lovingly tuck you in bed at night and make sure you are safe… he is thinking of making some sleepytime tea to make sure your dreams are sweet!

eventually you realize you don’t want to die. you just don’t want to live the life you’re living. and slowly you try to create a life you want to live. just gotta start there.

Adonis, tr. by Khaled Mattawa, Selected Poems

things that make people feel loved:

making them a playlist

baking them cookies

giving them flowers

creating art for them

random reminders that they are loved

writing them a poem

complimenting them on their talents

asking how their day was

sending them links to things you think they will like

random hugs

“This made me think of you”
