Follow Your Passion: A Seamless Tumblr Journey
this reminds me of that one post i saw forever ago about how hope is not ethereal and fragile, hope has had her face on the steering wheel of her car for the last ten minutes - but she gets up anyway, even though it's hard.
right now, everything feels big and scary and impossible. we can't change that. we can't go back in time and do something drastic, can't stop our country from electing a malignant man-child to office - again. but we can change small things, and make our new, terrifying reality a little bit better.
so yeah, do something small for yourself today. do something small for someone else. remind yourself that there are still good people out there, and you know that because you are one.
nothing is okay right now. but one day, this too will pass.
you know what. piss off someone who voted red and have a fantastic day. do the productive thing that you have been putting off. put away that thing in your room you’ve been walking past for the last three weeks. throw out the expired food in your fridge. make yourself a cute little drink. brush your hair. send an email. call that person back. eat a snack. go on a walk. open your mail. fold your laundry. hope is only dead if you let it die.
