sometimes the sun comes through my window a certain way and the air smells like it did years ago, and i forget I'm not 13 anymore. and that the world is actually very big.

How strange it is to be grieving life while we’re all actively living

I’m 35 and single and leave at least an hour from every family member. I see them all every once in a while, and I have a great friend group where I live, but I am so profoundly lonely most of the time. I miss being under the same roof as people I care about.

I hate that feeling so much. I'm f-ing 26 that so young why can't I just enjoy it and not think about the past?

one afternoon after i got my first digital camera i did a full photo shoot of my bedroom and my stuffed animals. at the time it was silly but now i can revisit the tinkerbell adorned walls and clouds painted on the ceiling. the house is now a rental, stripped of character, but that 8 year old’s room still exists in pictures

The “time was passing like a hand waving from a train I wanted to be on” always gets me. Whoever wrote that is so clever.

My older brother told me that if he ever gets dementia and has to relive the same years over and over again, he hopes it’s our childhood, in our childhood home. I still cry about that sometimes.

I always wanted older siblings, I have two sisters I’ve known all my life but we are 16 years apart so very different people. I found out two days ago I have another brother and a sister, my brother being only a few years older than me, there have been so many times I’ve been lonely and wished for an older brother or older sister that could be there. I don’t know how I feel knowing that I could have had that if it wasn’t for my dad having to leave them behind, I’ll never know their last names and I’ll never find them but I hope they know I am glad they’re here

I am so glad I’ve always been the type of person who cherishes moment as they’re happening, I look back on things and think about how I let them wrap around my heart and curate me into the person I’ve become. Life is hard and long but also very sweet and short and beautiful. I’m grateful for the grief I have endured because it’s granted me such softness.

Life goes by so fast and it’s hard not feeling like I’ve wasted my youth and lost so many years just struggling. I feel so young and so old and it just feels like it’s too late. I worry things will never truly get better no matter how hard I try.
