courtney. thirties, forever a taylor fan. tv enthusiast. navigating life with chronic illnesses

would it be enough if i could never give you peace? as someone with chronic illnesses, i have wondered this every day of my life. anyone who chooses to be with me will have to accept that danger is just around the corner because it lives in me. i will give you all of my sunshine, but you’ll have to stand in the rain with me. the nagging insecurities of knowing you can give someone all of your love, but you just might be too much to handle. i hope i’ll be enough, even though i can’t give you peace.

a couple years back i made a post about life advice and one of the tips i gave was 'cheat at solitaire if you want to', and i've been thinking of that since.

like 16 year old me had no idea what i was saying. i was talking out of my ass. but yeah. yeah, cheat in solitaire. make your life easier, even if it's not how it's supposed to be lived, even if it's not how everyone else is living. get a cane, get a hot pack, quit school, cheat at the game that only you are playing, in ways that will only ever benefit you.

peek at the next card. get a shower chair. it's okay. you're the only one playing and you're playing for you.

fave lyrics this week?

- i was always way too young to be that good at growing up / does anybody really know where all of the good kids go? / i was always way too young, now i can’t catch up

- she thinks i’m psycho ‘cause i like to rhyme her name with things

- you know i’ll always think of you, I’ll love you ‘til the end of time / you are the best thing that i’ll ever keep so far out of my life

- when you go home does she follow like an echo? / like your shadow you can try but you can’t run / from the truth of what you both made that she blew up on a tuesday / how does pain taste when it melts into your tongue?
