Little Things

Little things

I love the little beautiful things in life which remind me that no matter how badly I might feel like I’m doing in school, or at work, or in my relationships, there is good in the world. Even if everything I’m afraid of happens, there will still be raindrops that shine under streetlights and leaves on trees that filter sunlight like they’re determined to paint the sidewalks glowing green. There will still be tiny humans learning something amazing for the first time, just starting to understand how amazing the sky and sun and trees really are. 

I find that really comforting.

Kelsier’s primary character trait is his pure, insurmountable little shit energy, which allows him to become SUCH a NUISANCE to the IMMORTAL, UNBEATABLE Lord Ruler that he does the impossible and WINS.

Kelsier is such a little shit, but I love him anyway

Half of seeming clever is keeping your mouth shut at the right times.

(*though the Grendel actually ends up un-armed*)

I love subbing first graders. Where else am I going to get complimented for the shape of my “e” in the word “here”?
