Listen, maybe I can’t change the world, but I can pass eggs over the fence to my neighbor to save them a few dollars. I can cross the street and fix another neighbor’s cabinets. I can send my kid to the house next door with a can of tomato sauce they need and they’ll come back with a box of cocoa powder they weren’t going to use. We can leave our old furniture at the curb and one of us will drive by and pick it up to fix and sell or keep. I’ll plant a garden since I have the space and time and I’ll share what I can and I’ll get calls from someone else asking if I can use a crate of oranges.

I may not be able to change the world but I can do something

This message I sent my friend group on a fanfic all-nighter at 4am describes me very well

me to me: who’s the most disappointed being??? 💕

me, looking away from the night sky past the large window i was looking out of, having just finished a book worn with time i found in the archive, remaining seated on the windowsill but shifting to display my curious, wide-eyed gaze: ...

me: you are!!! you are!

this is what i hope the inside of my mouth will look like one day. when there is no one to stop me. i won’t even swallow! i just want to hold them like some hoarding animal. one day…
