How can I begin anything new with all of yesterday in me?
- my friend, after a movie: oh man, the monster in that one was so scary!
- me: idk man i thought it was sorta hot
i thought of you, while in the shower
and i thought of how nice it’d be
to have your things among my things
along the bathtub’s edge
and i imagined myself running out of soap
and using yours
and wearing you to work, and the grocery store
and i imagined that night, laying down beside you
and smelling your neck
and finding out where all my soap had gone
“Wolves and women are relational by nature, inquiring, possessed of great endurance and strength. They are deeply intuitive, intensely concerned with their young, their mate and their pack. Yet both have been hounded, harassed and falsely imputed to be devouring and devious, overly aggressive, of less value than those who are their detractors." - Clarissa Pinkola Estes
Happy International Women’s Day!
All the things I did wrong:
I: I relied on someone for my happiness.
II: I love people more than I love myself.
III: I never asked for help.
IV: I asked for help.
V: I opened up.
VI: I had hope.
