Cactus Fruit
While my name is a flower
I was never meant to make
Or have the power
to create
An orchid blossom in the desert
Because I was supposed to
create a cactus
Nopales
Agave
Pinos y
Huizaches
Shifting from a gardener
to a landscaper
Transitioned to a foreigner
Where people escaped her
So I learned how to grow tunas.
Vegetating comestible fruit
My love feeds the roots
Bajo cada luna
Spikes emerge
Stiff and strong
Pink blushes deeper
Until
Someone who is courageous enough
Enticed with the fruit’s intensity
Will take a bite
Savor its complexity
And divine difficult plight
That brought it life
Simtulating each papillae
For a unique profile
Which another cannot replicate
In soft soils, without smiles.
Random stuff I found on the internet and it matches my personality #4
mental health matters until you’re public with what you’re dealing with bc that means you just want attention and it’s off putting
A year ago I was feeling really bad and didn't really know what was going on so I went to reddit to see if anyone has like a checklist that helps checking if the thing you're feeling is actually A Thing or if it's just an ocd spiral I'm stuck in. Thankfully, there was someone who had a little checklist and idk it really resonated with me and I know checking and ocd aren't the safest match, but it helped me and illustrating it gave me a nice little project for a while and I think it doesn't look to shabby, so I thought I'd share
✏️ how i’m starting a bullet journal
as someone who isn’t artistic 🙈
i've wanted to start a bullet journal for so long (i even asked @a-fox-studies for design recs months ago — thank you again for those!!), but i still kept putting it off.
i felt like it was something that would be time- and resource-consuming in an unfulfilling way for me because i would make unaesthetic mistakes that would make spreads unusable for me in the future without regrets, etc., etc.
so here's what i'm doing to finally start the bullet journal of my dreams 😍
step 1: go digital
i did a lot of research so you don't have to and found the best freemium free-form notes app (with customizable pens, a sane eraser and select tool, and that also supports text and images, etc.).
DrawNote by DragonNest has so many features for free and even more cool ones if you want to pay different tiers, but i was able to make the spread above with just the free version, so i'm already very satisfied 😌
step 2: play around with it
i tried out a bunch of different pens and styles and colors to see how they look and get familiar with the apl, i tried loading images, organizing my spreads into folders within the app, etc.
what i really like about the digital format is that i can make mistakes and it's like they never happened and i didn't waste a single overpriced stationery item 😅
step 3: only use it for one thing at a time
i'm only planning to use the October tracker above for my vitamins so far since that's what i need the most motivation to remember to do lately 🙃 and i think it's a small enough goal that i can be consistent with it for this month.
i already have so many other ideas for different spreads i want to do for other things in my life, but i want to make an effort to pace myself so that i can do this sustainably because it seems really fun and i'd hate for it to start feeling like a burdensome chore due to my own carelessness 🥲
💌: hope this helps anyone who also feels they're not artistic or aesthetic, but wants to start a bujo! 💛 let me know if y'all want an update at the end of the month on how it's going~
I don’t want to accept you’re not good for me. Like a cavity decay and devour me.

ten habits to adopt for a beautiful life 💭
+ curated shopping: rather than over-consume in fast fashion and trends, buy fewer, high-quality items. frequent vintage shops, boutiques, or markets where you can find unique, timeless pieces.
+ focus on wellness and exercise: consider activities that are beneficial for the body and calming for the mind, such as yoga, pilates, or long walks in nature. choose activities that allow you to connect with your surroundings and maintain balance.
+ mindful eating: prioritise healthy, whole foods and cooking meals from scratch. organic produce, artisanal products, and perhaps even locally sourced ingredients could be staples in your kitchen. eating is a mindful practice, enjoyed at a leisurely pace.
+ cultural engagement: regularly visit museums, art galleries, and theatres, or participate in cultural events that inspire and enrich their creative spirit. value learning and exposure to the arts as a way to keep life vibrant and intellectually stimulating.
+ reading and continuous learning: develop a well-curated collection of books, including classic literature, philosophy, and art, and dedicate time regularly to reading and reflecting on what you've learned.
+ minimalist technology approach: stay up-to-date with necessary technology, but maintain a minimalist approach to its use. limit screen time, avoid social media distractions, and instead prioritise face-to-face interactions or hands-on activities.
+ intentional socialising: carefully cultivate your social life, with a focus on deep, meaningful connections rather than frequent, casual interactions. you likely enjoy hosting intimate gatherings at home, where you can experience conversation, ambiance, and connection.
tumblr is a private place. it's just me and the same 5 mutuals. It's intimate you get it
