A labour of love. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. I read, watched, listened widely just so I could articulate some of the things I’ve been pondering for months! ❤️

they didn’t lie when they said you’ll wake up on random day and decide you don’t wanna deal with certain shit no more.

👏🏾 As a mental health practitioner, I agree. We use terms like “religious psychosis” and even “narcissist” far too loosely. Not every unusual or bizarre belief is psychosis and not every harmful person has a personality disorder. Words matter and so does accuracy 🙂↕️

As you get older, being open to receiving criticism and feedback with little no defensiveness will exponentially change the health of all types of relationships you have

Forcing myself to read things in French when I can read them in English is really doing wonders to my brain.

On a literary level it is simply brilliant. The metaphors are rigorous and striking. The arguments are solid. But gosh, the feeling? SO SO SO much feeling.

📌 A very essential read!
It teaches discipline and how that discipline shapes how one loves.
It teaches one the ability to exercise restraint in both sexual desires & material pursuits.
The persistent prayers of his mother, Saint Monica, played a profound role in his life.

As someone who works in Oxford street, I hate this idea! Terrible for people who need accessibility and cannot walk long distances. Also Christmas time is going to be HELL!

as a student of literature, i find no attraction to the insistence on a singular interpretation of romeo & juliet. sontag warned us against this philitinism, even so to allow a functional mode of understanding. tragedy can be subverted, including its ugliness.

« Coupure d'électricité, c'est supportable. » Va dire ça en face aux gens qui ont perdu un membre de leur famille faute d'électricité dans les hôpitaux.

J’ai été en Afrique et j’ai jamais dû aller chercher l’eau. Coupure d’électricité c’est supportable. De toute manières ça va également arriver en Europe et ça va être terrible !

may we never be too big to self analyze
because so much would be avoided if you thought about your own ideas critically as much as you thought about the ideas of others

Nothing is quite as empowering as profoundly rejecting anything that might insidiously convince you that you are a perpetual victim and a passive participant in your own life.
Reject that narrative with vehemence. I tell my 20 girls this all the time.

I know language evolves, but the historical context of the term “maxxing” will never stop me from cringing when I see people casually using it in everyday lingo.
