“There’s so much more to life than finding someone who will want you, or being sad over someone who doesn’t. There’s a lot of wonderful time to be spent discovering yourself without hoping someone will fall in love with you along the way, and it doesn’t need to be painful or empty. You need to fill yourself up with love. Not anyone else. Become a whole being on your own. Go on adventures, fall asleep in the woods with friends, wander around the city at night, sit in a coffee shop on your own, write on bathroom stalls, leave notes in library books, dress up for yourself, give to others, smile a lot. Do all things with love, but don’t romanticize life like you can’t survive without it. Live for yourself and be happy on your own. It isn’t any less beautiful, I promise.”— Emery Allen (via perrfectly)
lovely things about autumn:
- the colours of trees
- comfort food like apple pies and soups
- leaves drift down as you walk
- seeing your breath in the air on misty mornings
- rainy days for books, candles & daydreaming
- movie nights
- pretty red and orange leaves dotting the street
- cinnamon, caramel & pumpkin flavoured food
- fuzzy knitted sweaters with big sleeves
- the sweetness of the air
- it’s the season of change and new beginnings

“…and I’m disgusted with dreams now — I want real things — live people to take hold of — to see — and to talk to — Music that makes holes in the sky —”— Georgia O’Keeffe, in a letter to Anita Pollitzer, from Georgia O’Keeffe: Art and Letters
