Consciousness can be agonizing but it's also a miracle. Sometimes the pressure to make the most of it feels debilitating. There's so much I want to do, and I have to remind that the stuff that really gives life meaning isn't hard to access. I think making a true effort to know yourself, make connections with the people around you, and observe and engage with the world are more than enough reasons to justify your existence.

i often see people flip their hats over not finding a proper purpose or meaning within the confines of life. understandably so, its an open ended carnie game. there’s no definitive strategy to battle whatever danger spikes at throws at you, but ive found the best way of dealing with it is to actively pursue it. engage with it, savor it, and ultimately, melt into it’s many pores. you’re all wonderful nutrients that life craves. you all will always be capsules of life forever longing for itself.

might sound corny but comparison is indeed the thief of joy, setting goals definitely helps but just waking up each day and knowing you're alive is already such a privilege!! i do get it though, it feels like time goes by way too fast

This NYT piece from last year explains why it’s actually a Good and Normal thing to do. I used to have like six in the bed at once but recently culled my crew to two practical ones: this sleeping Charmander plushie, which I hug while I’m in the fetal position, and an Ugly Doll I put between my knees because it’s nice and flat. They're so comfy and I fall asleep in 30 seconds like this (also they’re cute and I love them)
