You know what I cannot tolerate on fiction, especially fantasy genre, anymore? Women’s trauma. It’s surprising that even in universes where Dragons exist, we still see women needing to fight to become a queen for the First time. Nothing against them, I am just saying I am over it. In this century moving forward, I am only interested in Liberation Stories. I am talking flawed, imperfect, lazy, normal stories. People not needing to be Exceptional to fight for spaces to just exist in. People thriving because in the land of fantasy atleast, we get to imagine regular people having there basic needs met because That is Natural. I want see more of #fleabag and #valerie and #piku on media. I want to see the quiet ones who struggle to speak up still being seen as assertive. I want to see quiet resistance and seeking help as powerful tools too. I need to see rest as resilient. I want to feel valid even when I have no fight left. I want to see us building an army to protect our true humanity. I want to see us rejecting the need to horde resources and be capable of sharing it all. I still like to believe that deep down we are nurturing souls capable of leading with love and care and if that means we have to fictionalise it first, then be it. I am tired of pretend niceties, I want to see Radical Kindness. And I want it NOW. . . #femininity #feministworld #radicalselflove #radicalkindness #thecaptainscarface #liberationstories #writersofinstagram #torquay #selfcare #egalitarian #fuckcapitalism (at Torquay, Victoria) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci1YTKeLHhm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I think part of growing up is realising that it’s less about being good/bad and more about how much we are able to take our loved one’s comfort into account in our own actions. And the truth is that, somedays that could be hard, and that could look really selfish from the other side but learning how to be okay with that because maybe for that day, it was the best that one could have done for themselves. It’s hard to label someone as bad or good once you have met enough people and have experienced enough variables in your own life, which is the type of insight that age brings that you cannot learn intellectually. As the biggest proponent of youth, I am beginning to (reluctantly) realise how some of the age old sayings does hold some merit regardless. Having access to so much information and knowledge at our disposal, can beguile us into feeling quite accomplished with knowledge of the world in our youth, but for that knowledge to translate into reasonable, intentional action takes patience that can’t be learnt without giving it time. Therefore its hardly surprising that so many of the younger generation suffers from mental health issues, not because they know they exist before getting to experience them (which a lot of older millennials like to accuse the younglings of), but because they learn so much so quickly before getting the time to understand them in the first place. I remember as a younger person in the spiritual space, and I would ask these questions that would “plague my existence” and all that the teacher would tell me is to try to ~observe my breath~ and that would be so frustrating cause that’s NOT WHAT I ASKED! I know that’s the whole point but I am trying to understand Ambition here!! But, as I have stuck around and continued to observe my breath (out of sheer spite), I have begun to appreciate Time. ~*cont. in comments* . . #lightscapemelbourne #lightscape #melbourne #writer #captions #whatsonmelbourne #thecaptainscarface #writersofinstagram (at Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria) https://www.instagram.com/p/Chur58vvUib/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Going through my gallery is the physical manifestation of bumping across memories 🥂Anywho, long caption alert, as your girl needs to vent a little. And today, we are gonna vent on✨Good/Bad✨ I think part of growing up is realising that it’s less about being good or bad and more about how much we are able to take our loved one’s comfort into account in our own actions. And the truth is that, somedays its just not possible to do that, somedays it just takes all the effort to make it out for the day and that could look really selfish from the other side and learning how to be okay with that cause maybe for that day, it was the best that one could have done for themselves.
