Same Same, But Different

Ask me anything

I'm at that wonderfully terrible place between being a careless twenty-something, and having to grow up and figure out what to do with my life...

Sometimes you’re 23 and standing in the kitchen of your house making breakfast and brewing coffee and listening to music that for some reason is really getting to your heart. You’re just standing there thinking about going to work and picking up your dry cleaning. And also more exciting things like books you’re reading and trips you plan on taking and relationships that are springing into existence. Or fading from your memory, which is far less exciting. And suddenly you just don’t feel at home in your skin or in your house and you just want home but “Mom’s” probably wouldn’t feel like home anymore either. There used to be the comfort of a number in your phone and ears that listened everyday and arms that were never for anyone else. But just to calm you down when you started feeling trapped in a five-minute period where nostalgia is too much and thoughts of this person you are feel foreign. When you realize that you’ll never be this young again but this is the first time you’ve ever been this old. When you can’t remember how you got from sixteen to here and all the same feel like sixteen is just as much of a stranger to you now. The song is over. The coffee’s done. You’re going to breathe in and out. You’re going to be fine in about five minutes.

These things.

There are so many. There are so many people at so many times doing so many things.

Things that feel right for them. Things that they’re doing purely for others. Things that are being done for no particular reason at all.

And with all these things intersecting and conflicting. With all these things going in every which direction. With all these things, how can two people be expected to be okay with just each other? With just the things they have to give and the things they get?

How do they not fall victim to all the other things in orbit around them?

These things keep me up at night.

Experiences don’t always breed intimacy. Sometimes they just make the distance more apparent.

I don’t think I’m made for relationships.

I spend too much of them wanting to punch the other person in the face.

the best moment in cinema history

My favorite part of the movie.

I always try to explain this scene to people and they never understand it or my love for it

The most important thing in all human relationships is conversation, but people don’t talk anymore, they don’t sit down to talk and listen. They go to the theater, the cinema, watch television, listen to the radio, read books, but they almost never talk. If we want to change the world, we have to go back to a time when warriors would gather around a fire and tell stories.

Paulo Coelho, The Zahir (via indieless)

Couldn’t agree more.

Sad cause conversation is my favorite part of it all
