This is just what I needed to hear. This is my last semester of undergrad and I’m trying so hard to be perfect at everything and it’s not feasible. I closed my eyes, listened to this, and breathed

Sometimes when things are awful, I only need to remember “you do not have to be good” and it’s somehow slightly less awful.

"the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting, over and over, announcing your place in the family of things"

This has always been and continues to be the most simple and deeply moving collection of words. May we all get up off our knees & find our place in the family of things.
