ladies we need to start frantically and obsessively reading books in less than 24 hours again..remember how happy we were

there's nothing more comforting than picking up an old book and immediately reemerging yourself into the story. a book that feels familiar, a book that feels like home, a book that feels like the warm embrace of an old friend. you read the first page and all of those feelings come back- the excitement, the wonder, the awe. what were you going through when you first read these words? how much have you grown? you reread the same paragraphs. you reattach yourself to the characters. you reimagine the setting and the descriptions and is it different? or is it all the same? are you different? are you the same? who do you want to be?

If there's one piece of advice I can give to long distance couples, it's call. Every. Single. Day. If you can facetime/video chat, that's even better. Show up for your partner at the end of every day, be there for them, ask them about their day, laugh and cry together. Just because you're far away from each other, doesn't mean you have to be apart.

" Autumn is my season, dear. It is, after all, the season of the soul. "

- Virginia Woolf
