Alain De Botton, Essays In Love [transcript In ALT]

This is it! And people out there describing this as "mild criticism" is just being ignorant at this point.

i kind of don’t like Taylor describing what happened to her in 2016 as ‘getting cancelled’ because it definitely wasn’t. it was a whole different beast. getting ‘cancelled’ is people finding out something about you, talking about it for a week, causing you to take like 3 weeks off and then everyone just moves on. she had a grown man who was weirdly obsessed with her since she was 19 publicly discredit her art and sexualize her to the entire world, put her in a revenge-porn style music video with a wax figure depicting her naked body without her consent, had a crowd of tens of thousands of people say ‘fuck taylor swift’, had a mural painted of her death, and went into hiding for almost two years. ‘getting cancelled’ involves a few tweets and an apology note…. not years and years of therapy. 

A brief moment of rationality from the bird place.

It’s the only way. If I don’t do it, they will.

"There are moments which mark your life; when you realize nothing will ever be the same and time is divided into two parts: before & after this" .......

The life is crazy, messy, chaotic & what not but I'm still sailing because small moments like this makes life and all the hard work paid off! Hope you've a good day and wishing you a very good week ahead. ☺

Here's a picture of pretty sky from my roof! Enjoy and also Happy Pride Month :)

“Stop apologizing. You don’t have to say sorry for how you laugh, how you dress, how you make your hair, how you speak. You don’t have to be sorry for being yourself. Do it fearlessly. It’s time to accept this is you, and you gotta spend the rest of your life with you. So start loving your sarcasm, your awkwardness, your weirdness, your unique sense of humor, your everything. It will make your life so much easier to simply be yourself.”
