Doing any activity is always better than doing nothing.
“Do you think it’s funny that both of our favourite memories are about the people we like the least now?“ I ask. "Maybe that’s why we dislike them,” she says. “The distance between who they were and who they are is so wide, we have no hope of getting them back.”

finally time for your favorite knitted sweaters and turtlenecks
carving your favorite quotes and book characters into pumpkins
going on evening walks, listening to classical music while looking at all the beautiful trees
finding coffee shops and getting your favorite seasonal beverages
going to a second-hand bookstore, finding a new cafe and reading your new books right away
sitting under a tree as you read and study, occasionally pulling leaves out of your hair
snuggling up in a cozy armchair, tossing a blanket over your lap, and reading to the light of a pumpkin scented candle
decorating your room and bookshelf with skulls and other assortments
putting your headphones in to listen to podcasts as you rake leaves
staying up all night reading by a window, looking outside occasionally at the streetlamps, wondering if the ghost of oscar wilde is out there somewhere
ink smears on your fingers as you annotate poetry, looking out the window at the colors
opening a window to let the cool autumn air in as you study, a leaf blowing through and landing on your desk
how do i delete myself and everything ive ever said from other ppl’s minds
Like if you save
If you feel sad, a walk in nature always clears your mind and heals it.
Parco Durazzo Pallavincini, built between 1840-1846 in Pegli, a town to the west of Genoa, Italy.
"A university degree, four books & hundreds of articles and I stil make mistakes when reading. You wrote me "Good morning" & I read it as "I love you".
