“and The Universe Said…”

I feel like tumblr would really like As It Should Be by Derek Mahon

Why?

Uhhh no reason

if we could read minds I still don't think we'd understand them.

I think I was just born with something dark and ugly inside of me. Always waiting to be found out.

When someone you love offers a bid for connection, you say yes every time. When someone sends you an article, a video, a funny post, it’s a bid for connection. They are trying to connect with you. When someone shares details about their day, their life, their thoughts, or their feelings with you, that is a bid for connection. They want to connect with you on a deeper level. They are trying to pull you into their world. If you love them, you say yes every time. Yes, even if the article they send is not particularly interesting to you. Yes, even if it means listening to them ramble about a game you don’t care about and think is stupid. Yes yes yes. And let’s hope they always say yes to your bids, too.
