Experiencing burnout in an area you love doesn’t mean you are no longer passionate about that thing, or are any less good at it. It’s often an indication that there are other parts of your life that need your care. A garden looks most beautiful when every flower is watered, and you deserve to nourish yourself in the same way. You will flourish again.

late autumn. gazing from balconies into the cold night. feeling the breeze on a walk through the forest. warming your hands with your cup of hot chocolate. being excited to read the new book you bought. collecting pretty leaves for pressing. creating autumn playlists. sharing an umbrella with someone you love. your laughter, forming little clouds of cold breath.

the dark academic urge to buy books simply to feel the texture of the pages and inhale the vintage smell that takes you back to places you’ve never been with people you’ve never met
