Amy and Laurie were good but Jo losing her Teddy is one of the most heartbreaking things to ever happen in literature. Because it isn't just that she didn't love him and he wanted to marry her. It's that they loved each other too much and not in the same way, and grief of losing him was just a culmination of losing everything else, and growing up into something that is unfamiliar and being alone.
And it's just tough to think that one day somebody you thought would be around forever might still be around but it isn't for you. And that sometimes it is ultimately the love that you have for each other that breaks you apart. And that your sister won't always be sleeping across the hall from you. And there will eventually be a last day where all of your friends gather together as kids. And sometimes something that you dreamed about your whole childhood isn't something that ends up being for you. And sometimes no matter what we do to stop it, things and people and places will leave our lives anyway, and the trick is learning how to be okay with that, eventually.
(based off a conversation that @es-3 and i had the other day that i did NOT cry after)

Why does no one ever talk about the parallels between the Laurie and Jo failed proposal and Laurie and Amy confession scene?
The fact that both March sisters when they realize what Laurie is going to say respond with “No, no” then Laurie’s “I’ve loved you ever since I’ve known you Jo” parallels Amy’s “I’ve spent my entire life loving you.”
This is driving me insane. I keep thinking about it.

Little Women Mug
“Hope and keep busy; and, whatever happens, remember that you can never be fatherless"
Little Women, Louisa May Alcott ♥️
Marmee, the March girls' mother, provides her daughters with the best advice. As the moral role model for her girls - Meg, Jo, Beth and Amy, - she counsels them through all of their problems and works hard but happily.
This mug is inspired by this beloved story. It is completely hand shaped, sculpted and painted by me, glazed with trasparent lead free glaze and was fired at 1050 celsius. Holds about 470 ml/ 16 US fluid ounces.
