Wrinkles are our body's way to document that we've lived. R u getting lines from smiling? Gorgeous. Crow's feet from laughing? Magical.
I don't fear getting wrinkles from moving my eyebrows too much, either. Conveying emotion is cool, and aging is too.

This is not cope. Started a couple years ago. Legitimately feel increasingly vigorous with every passing day. I would cave 22 yr old meβs skull in if we got in a fight. I have more hope & less guilt @ 26 than I could have ever dreamt of having at 20. Iβm becoming beautiful, my skin is getting smoother, and the muscles under the skin more tight, more jagged. My seed is of a more robust, viscous consistency. I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world

romanticise ur blunders & ur missteps, bc that is just part of being a creature. if u saw a duckling fall flat on its face and scramble 2 its feet u wouldn't judge the freakin duckling, u would think it was the cutest thing ever. because it is. we r just organisms in big ungainly bodies, and that is part of our charm. tripping over ur own feet is maybe the most adorable thing u can do. like awwhh u tripped on the pavement </333
this extends 2 social interactions 2. messaging exes that u miss them, making a joke that doesn't land, mishearing/not knowing/forgetting something, etc??!!?! SO SWEET. genuinely such wonderful & important & adorable things 2 do.
i think this is maybe the best thing i've ever managed 2 train my brain 2 do. it isn't foolproof but it makes life a lot gentler.

just about everything that happens to you will be interesting to your future self/your descendants/archaeologists. immortalise your to do lists, shopping lists, packing lists, things that loved ones say, things that strangers say, the phrases you hear that would make a good band name. brainstorm what to do on the weekend, list your cravings, the songs stuck in your head, transcribe birdsong, etc. i track my periods & my finances in my journal. sometimes if i really want to take a photo of something i'll restrain myself and draw it in my journal instead. sometimes i take notes for uni in there, or draft sewing patterns, or sketch when im bored. journals are self-portraits!!!!!!!
