how can i explain? its the first dance at my wedding, my mom dying her hair in the bathroom, a central park picnic on a spring day, crying in the drivers seat, running around the beach under the moon —drunk or not, sitting in the backyard surrounded by the perfume of cigarette smoke until the sun goes down & the fire flies come out.
life. absolute life. brilliant. wonderful. life.

it's my 2nd day being here on pi.fyi and i really adore the whole concept of just sharing our interests without feeling the need to receive any online validation or perform. the people here are so inclusive and nice
T-T i also like how i don't get the urge to endlessly scroll, as there's no algorithm driving the platform.

i have recently started reading this poetry book by mary oliver and it is sososo beautiful <3 it makes me appreciate life and nature more. the loveliest thing about poetry books is that you don't need to worry about forgetting where you left off!! you can read a few entries and call it a day, and then just pick it back up again when you feel like it!!
one of the poems i love rn:
On Meditating, Sort Of – Mary Oliver
Meditation, so I’ve heard, is best accomplished
if you entertain a certain strict posture.
Frankly, I prefer just to lounge under a tree.
So why should I think I could ever be successful?
Some days I fall asleep, or land in that
even better place — half-asleep — where the world,
spring, summer, autumn, winter —
flies through my mind in its
hardy ascent and its uncompromising descent.
So I just lie like that, while distance and time
reveal their true attitudes: they never
heard of me, and never will, or ever need to.
Of course I wake up finally
thinking, how wonderful to be who I am,
made out of earth and water,
my own thoughts, my own fingerprints —
all that glorious, temporary stuff.

this line and "if it's meant to be then it will be" from sun bleached flies - ethel cain always sends me to tears :,)
i also interpret the line as forgiving everyone and everything that has wronged me because in the end something better will always come back to me
