I’m officially an Edgar Allan Hoe after getting a tattoo based on his poem “The Raven”.

I first read the poem in middle school and I’ve been obsessed with it ever since. I’ve been dreaming of getting this tattoo for years and now I finally have it 🖤

“I am blissful. I am beautiful. I am bountiful. I am alive. I am a warrior. I am brave. I am strong. I am loyal. I am a mother. I am a wife. I am a daughter.  I am a sister.

I am worthy of all the gifts the world has to offer. I am.

*I got this tattoo for my 31st birthday to remind myself of all of these things*”

...

“I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I  am, I am, I am.”

—Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar, Chapter 20, 1963

Moments before the most romantic breakfast in bed dropped‼️‼️🧵

Once again, just to reiterate, their hands are still secretly doing the S1,e4 thing <3

(The version with the tattoos, cannot believe I forgot bbygrls emo-trauma tats🧎🏻‍♀️)

#excuse the tats im going off of memory #which is even more embarrassing because why are atleast 30% of them accurate #that’s memory space that could be being used for university slides and common sense but instead #i can tell you the literary meaning of every tattoo a fictional gay pirate has <3 #our flag means death #ofmd #ofmd s2 #gentlebeard #our flag means fanart #art #procreate

“Get scared. It will do you good. Smoke a bit, stare blankly at some ceilings, beat your head against some walls, refuse to see some people, paint and write. Get scared some more. Allow your little mind to do nothing but function. Stay inside, go out - I don’t care what you’ll do; but stay scared as hell. You will never be able to experience everything. So, please, do poetical justice to your soul and simply experience yourself.”

~ from Albert Camus, Notebooks: 1935-1951

This is my only New Year's Resolution for 2024. I'm not a smoker, so I will substitute coffee for that part. Occasionally absinthe.

UPDATED: (1) Selfie in front of Gallery Espresso on Chippewa Square in Savannah, Georgia (2) My new tattoo on my left inner forearm (February 2024): “only connect,” the epigraph of Howards End by my favorite writer E.M. Forster, and really the theme of all his novels (including Maurice, my favorite novel). Typewriter font. Inked by James Tuck.

An etching and dot work style tattoo I got back in 2014, a mashup of the quotes below.

"To the person in the bell jar, blank and stopped as a dead baby, the world itself is a bad dream."

"I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am."

--Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar, Chapter Twenty, 1963

But in all honest, I believe there is always a reason – and a bright side. A domino effect does occur whether you want it to or not. Living means learning and teaching all at once. And the more people talk about it, the more we’ll learn from each other – in the same way I’m learning from my clients.

Fine Line: "We'll be alright."

There is something so cathartic about this line that at every listen, it feels like a good stab that my heart needed so that I could finally set every troubling emotion I've been straining to keep free.

The song begins with sentimental guitar strings—as if it is a small triggering memory that spins emotionally and necessarily out of control. Then, the instrumentation gets louder and intense and overwhelming... drums, sirens, trumpets... and towards the end of it all, Harry promises: we'll be alright.

New tattoo on my left inner forearm: “only connect,” the epigraph of Howards End by my favorite writer E.M. Forster, and really the theme of all his novels (including Maurice, my favorite novel). Typewriter font. Inked by James Tuck.

“Only connect! That was the whole of her sermon. Only connect the prose and the passion, and both will be exalted, and human love will be seen at its height. Live in fragments no longer. Only connect, and the beast and the monk, robbed of the isolation that is life to either, will die.”
