me, an introvert: ahh, alone time will be so nice
[30 minutes later]
me, also in need of constant attention: okay alright… so clearly nobody wants to talk to me, nobody cares about me… what happened to my so called “friends”… like im not even sure why i try in this world???
at the end of this week I’m gonna start unfollowing blogs that are still posting certain types of political content. I love you and I probably don’t disagree with you but there is a certain kind of weariness that I cannot give in to. refusing to submit to that weariness through constant exposure is not denial…I simply don’t want the decrying, the decaying to go on forever. there’s so much to do. I need to stay focused. there’s so much to do, so much to say. I promise to listen. I promise to remember where I come from. I love you, and I want you to say what you need to say. I want to help make your voice heard. but after a while, I will need to go on, I will need to face ahead.
onward and upward!
El-ahrairah, your people cannot rule the world, for I will not have it so. All the world will be your enemy, Prince with a Thousand Enemies, and whenever they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you, digger, listener, runner, prince with the swift warning. Be cunning and full of tricks and your people shall never be destroyed.
Richard Adams, from Watership Down (via beltofvenus)
But first they must catch you
