When things go wrong, you’ll find they usually go on getting worse for some time; but when things start going right they often go on getting better and better.

when trista mateer said 'I still wake up with things to tell you.' and when richard siken said ‘what more do you want? I make you pancakes, I take you hunting, I talk to you as if you’re really there.' and when joan didion said 'I remember thinking that I needed to discuss this with John.' [the nature of his death] and 'I am dropping my keys on the table inside the the door before I fully remember. There is no one to hear this news..There is no one to agree, disagree, talk back.' and when C.S. Lewis said 'i think i am beginning to understand why grief feels like suspense. It comes from the frustration of so many impulses that had become habitual. Thought after thought, feeling after feeling, action after action, had [them] for their object. Now their target is gone.' and when fleabag said 'i don't know what to do with it, with all the love i have for her, i don't know where to put it now' and then Jamie Anderson tied it all up by saying 'Grief is just love with no place to go.' i think i need a moment.

Be weird. Be random. Be who you are. Because you never know who would love the person you hide.

Yearly Reminder that C.S Lewis encouraged his fans to write fanfiction about Susan Pevensie becoming a friend to Narnia and reuniting with her family once again.

Literally inviting his fans to write Susan’s adult, angsty character development with a happy ending.

Do your duty fans. Write that fanfiction.

I've never seen a normal post about C.S. Lewis and JRR Tolkien it's always just like: Tolkien once murdered someone and Lewis helped him bury the body but he wore a Santa costume just to spite him

Mental pain is less dramatic than physical pain, but it is more common and also more hard to bear. The frequent attempt to conceal mental pain increases the burden: it is easier to say “My tooth is aching” than to say “My heart is broken.
