concept: let’s go to bed at 9pm instead of 3am. let’s drink more water for our bodily health and less coffee for the aesthetic. let’s not skip breakfast because it’s worth running a little behind even if it’s just some fruit or cereal. let’s go socialize even if we’re kinda nervous. let’s love ourselves when we feel down, because flaws are not the end of the world. let’s work hard but take breaks in between instead of procrastinating and then rushing. let’s ignore what people who don’t know us have to say about us behind our backs. let’s be kind to each other because we’re all trying here. let’s hype up being mentally healthy rather than being perfect. let’s live our lives like we want to.
just a thought.
Freshly brewed coffee from the cafetière, burgundy cashmere jumper, endless joy and fascination, the crisp golden sunlight over Hampstead heath, the leaves being burnt into deeper colours, marvelling at the powers of attraction, forever pursuing the connection between art and science.
life’s too short to not fill each moment with love. Chose to buy that plant you saw at the shops and nurture it. Chose to take a study break and spend it sketching or day dreaming. Chose to keep that picture you took of you with your s/o for yourself to enjoy instead of watching for the likes coming on social media. Put love into how you do your hair or maybe whack it into a messy bun and put love into creating art. Put love into how you treat others and value all members of society, treating everyone with love and respect. Choose to love yourself as you would others, respecting yourself and loving yourself, especially after failure. Choose love.
ingredients to be happy:
- something to look forward to. it doesn’t have to be a big thing. it can be going into your soft bed, wearing warm pajamas after a nice shower, or making yourself a cute breakfast. this can also be a goal you really want to achieve, like getting better at drawing or getting the courage to talk to new people.
- someone to love. this can be many people;your friends, your family, your pet, your favorite singer or your crush. try to spend more time talking to or including them in your life somehow. although solitude is nice it’s really good for mental health to spend time with people u love.
- something to love. this can be a hobby you like doing, whether it’s making art, coding, going to coffee shops, baking cakes or listening to music. do more of these things in your day, and find a reason to wake up excited in the morning.
- self love and self acceptance. this means forgiving your mistakes, learning to laugh at embarrassing things, not dwelling on the past, and stopping bad thoughts about yourself. this is self care; dancing alone in your room, going for walks, listening to happy songs, and taking care of yourself like going to bed earlier and drinking enough water. remember you’re a beautiful human who deserves happiness and an amazing life. :)
i imagine getting my own place all the time and going down to the grocery store early in the morning before everyone else and to the coffee shop and having a really small place with wide windows and lots of plants and shelves of books and a tiny kitchen where i can make tea and noodles and a bed with a pile of blankets and just a place i can make uniquely my own or maybe a place i could share with someone but i just think about this place a lot idk
cant wait until i get cuddled to sleep every night by the love of my life
take a moment to look at stars and realise nothing matters. problems are futile. the planets spin and life goes on. you are your own celestial being
things that are special in an indescribable way
- the scent of someone’s clothes or belongings once they leave
- the feeling of your home after having all your friends over
- how a city feels at night, silent and calm after all the bustling and traffic of the day time
- looking into someone’s eyes and somehow knowing deep inside that you will fall in love with them
- the feeling of needing to be close to somebody just because their presence is so radiant
- meeting someone after a long time and it’s like you never left
