“Self-control is the weakest of all things in one whose mind is not possessed by wisdom.”
— Aeschylus, Prometheus Bound
I know it sounds fake but you really do have a lot of silent lovers on this planet who look at you and wish they had your smile or your hair color or your humor or your intellect or your intentions or your heart, your manners, your eyes, your ease, even just you. People who are too shy to tell you what they admire about you or what they wish for you or who they see themselves becoming bc of you & they’re too shy to tell you. even tho it isn’t verbalized, the universe has still heard and the universe has loved you for helping out on its creations. You’re that person. You’re you.
“…and we drink our coffee and pretend not to look at each other.”
— Charles Bukowski, Luck
