It’s a good morning with mists descending
A light rain forms teardrops on the greenest leaves
A darkened dampness permeates the heart and mind
But we’re safe inside, taking it all in
It’s a lazy day of literature and brandies
Hours spent staring at crackling fires
A comforting smell of libraried shelves
Over shadows the comings and goings of the day

Always stick to what makes you weird, odd, strange, different. That’s your source of power.

Gratitude Journal

I am so happy and grateful that I could take time off school (and hopefully still get paid) for the last nine working days when I’ve had Covid. I feel like I have finally come out of the other side and have some energy back.
