Things We Love for Spring | 27.02.16

“You deserve a love who wants you disheveled, with everything and all the reasons that wake you up in a haste and the demons that won’t let you sleep.

You deserve a love who makes you feel safe, who can consume this world whole if he walks hand in hand with you; someone who believes that his embraces are a perfect match with your skin.

You deserve a love who wants to dance with you, who goes to paradise every time he looks into your eyes and never gets tired of studying your expressions.

You deserve a love who listens when you sing, who supports you when you feel shame and respects your freedom; who flies with you and isn’t afraid to fall.

You deserve a love who takes away the lies and brings you hope, coffee, and poetry” —Frida Kahlo

Notes from the Weekend

RECENTLY finished reading Susan Sontag’s essay, “The Double Standard Of Aging” (1972) and found it very enlightening. Made a lot of notes, some of which I’ll share in an upcoming article, but mostly, thought for a long time about her ideas on the subject, and what it it means to be a woman in today’s society.
