Odysseus Elytis, From Maria Nephele (trans. From The Greek By Athan Anagnostopoulos)

we are the daughters of parents who should not have had kids

people be like "you overthink a lot" yeahh bcs in the end that shi! turns out to be true?????

happy i guess i'm disappointed that you didn't 'merry christmas' your way back into my life and i get that there's still new years but by new years i'll be a very different person so you've really only got like a five day gap before i definitely can't tolerate your bullshit anymore because i swore that i'd be a non bullshit tolerating kind of girl season to all who celebrate

Bernhard Schlink, The Reader (translated by Carol Brown Janeway)

on love arriving unannounced

liking christmas = spoiled nepo baby

liking halloween = victorian street urchin

liking thanksgiving = big and greedy

liking valentines day = borderline personality disorder

I think toy doctors are so nice actually like i remember being a little heartbroken kid when one of my beloved stuffed animals got old and torn up and my mom just threw him out. And i know what it would have meant to me, to have someone lovingly stitch him back up instead so i could love him just a little longer. And I’m really glad there are little kids out there who get to see pictures of their stuffed animals and dolls with little fake hospital beds and casts as they “rest & heal” before returning to them good as new. Like what a sweet thing to do with your life.
