Productivity culture will deceive you (especially if you are particularly high-functioning or a former Gifted Kid) into thinking that any use of your time that can’t be monetized or leveraged for your personal advancement is worthless, and I’m here to tell you that’s the devil talking. Do shit because you like it.
“I have come to accept the feeling of not knowing where I am going. And I have trained myself to love it. Because it is only when we are suspended in mid-air with no landing in sight, that we force our wings to unravel and alas begin our flight. And as we fly, we still may not know where we are going to. But the miracle is in the unfolding of the wings. You may not know where you’re going, but you know that so long as you spread your wings, the winds will carry you.””
— C. JoyBell C. (via perrfectly)
When they ask you why you love
the rain, the ocean, the river
tell them
it is because
unlike the people
who should have
loved you better,
the water was never afraid to touch you;
even when you were
at your most damaged
and broken
Water - Nikita Gill
