Your Mind Is Playing Tricks On You, My Dear

He's easy to love

I talk about him all day long, you should be exhausted from hearing me now. But, how could I ever stop talking about such a wonderful human being? You have no idea, he’s the sweetest, warmest, most big-hearted person I’ve ever know. (Well, the second honestly, the first was my grandpa). They say that when someone truly loves you you can feel it, you just know it, it was true. You really can FEEL being loved, you can, and it’s the most sensational emotion there is.

And loving him? That’s quite easy! What’s not to love? He’s incredibly kind to others, he sacrifices himself to make the people he cares about happy, he always has a helping hand, he’s incredibly smart (I don’t think he realises how much, he’s always saying I’m well read and intelligent but next to him I’m nothing, his brain is a wonderful tool), he’s sensitive and I love that (he doesn’t show it in obvious ways but whenever he does you can see how emotion crawls up in the way he smokes a cigarette in 2 minutes or how he eats his nails), he has the most amazing sense of humour and laughs at pretty much anything, he’s seen the world but stays true to his home, he…. well, he treats me better than anyone ever has.

I could go on and on, I don’t think I would ever ran out of reasons why I love him. He just really makes it really easy for me to love him.

And how lucky am I to have this beautiful, fantastic boy love me back? I must’ve done something right in another lifetime or something. Whatever the reason, I’m the lucky one, and I will try to maintain myself in that position for as long as I can, I will.

[Taylor Swift] doesn’t have to be your taste, and I can totally understand why someone wouldn’t be into her, but choosing to write off a young woman completely because she “has too many feelings” is just typical, old school misogyny. Don’t like her music? Cool. Don’t like her style? Cool. Don’t like the way she words things in interviews? Totally reasonable. But if you’re willing to paint this woman as the CRAZY BITCH EX-GIRLFRIEND because she uses her platform to call out men’s bullshit behavior, you’re contributing to a culture that assumes all women’s feelings are irrational and worthless. It’s mean, it’s boring, and we can do better.

Riptide

Hearing the ocean’s riptide has to be the most calming thing there is. Each wave produces a completely different sound but somehow it has the same soothing rhythm.

Sometimes I wish my life was a bit more like the ocean’s riptide.

I wish there was more consistency in it, I wish it was had a predicable sound, I wish listening to it was relaxing.

But then it wouldn’t be life, now would it?

No, because life’s not about predictability or consistency. No, life’s about moving and adapting. But oh, God, how bad do I suck at moving and adapting. But if there’s non of it, then life’s boring and I suck at being bored more than I suck at moving and adapting. So, I must choose, I must settle for life. As weird as it may sound.

Because life is more like a riptide than I can imagine.

When you’re stroke by a wave and you get caught up inside the riptide there’s a moment when you don’t know which way is up and which way is down and what you must do is let yourself go and hope to be heading up.

That’s life.

It may not be soothing —because being inside the riptide is not what’s soothing, hearing the riptide is— but it sure as hell is entertaining.

Thomas, darling. A year older. Mia San Mia all the way through. Us fans, we love you and wish you a happy birthday.

but then again, if you tell them you want them to hug and tell you it's gonna be okay you're sort of pushing them away too...

I push people away on We Heart It.
