don’t forget to thank her for her understanding and her listening, and for giving you the opportunity to let her know what you’ve been feeling, and how much you love cooking! everything will be fine as long as you make all of your actions out of love, as it gives us the strength to keep standing up for what we believe in in a way that invites others to join us in that as well :)”

My first tattoo. Done yesterday so it’s still a bit weird.
“I grew up in the bosom of my family
Eight strong arms around me
Oh…from the seed they’ve grown me
And I thank those
Those who kept me company
They are a wall of arms around me
Oh…it is they who are my army
Oh… it is they who are my army
Through these eyes
There’s no god above me
No devil below me
No purgatory, no pearly gates
The worms are what await me
It’s only me that can forgive me and
I have faith, oh…I have faith
I have faith, oh…I have faith
In those who put up with me”
- The Maccabees
I can’t even begin to describe how amazing The Maccabees are. After seeing them live for the third time today I’m overwhelmed with love and pride.
And they’re also the nicest guys alive. Seriously, Orlando still remembers me from a show two years ago.
(I’ll add the photos from the show later)
I have a recurrent somewhat ‘scientific fact of the day’ (this is only a real concept because you made it up in the first place). It is that: nothing is just as it seems.
I find this to be a really important thought for me because it makes me crave for constant little improvements in my life, not to have scientific knowledge make me settle as I see the uncertainty and incompleteness in it, and I think our happiness and pleasure of being alive and our seeking to extend that to others pushes me to make those changes humbly, thankfully, joyfully and compassionately. This makes me smile. You make me smile.
~ It’s not that I think I am too fancy to just submit an amazing picture I love but I felt like writing this at your request.
Sorry to have missed your blog on it’s birthday but I follow it and take great pleasure on it in any other given day I’m online.
Love, Ana P.
