Cynthia Erivo is not of this earth
also this song is really a balm for me right now. highly recommend singing along poorly and at top volume for good emotional release.
some choice lyrics:
āI donāt need you to love me. I donāt need you to love.ā
āGot my house, it still keeps the cold out. Got my chair when my body canāt hold out.ā
āI believe I have inside of me everything that I need to live a bountiful lifeā
āI will stand as tall as the tallest treeā
āIām thankful for every day that Iām given, both the easy and the hard ones Iām livingā

This is another one that just really hits and got me through one of the toughest times; it makes me feel very emotional every time and considering that itās from the Hannah Montana movie it is low-key embarrassing. Iām glad you asked this question because Iāve been reconnecting with the girl I was then and trying to honor her and the things she wanted for her life but didnāt think she deserved. So Iām having a bit of a full circle moment right now and feeling quite sentimental and touchedā¦
I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
You'll never reach it
Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I, I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down, but
No, I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments, that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I gotta be strong
Just keep pushing on

for when u need songs that speak to ur religious trauma

to me itās always been kind of a sad song but itās also resoundingly hopeful
itās not been the best year but itās not been the worst, you know how it is- life kind of just happens.
i of course like the part :: ādonāt cryā¦ donāt raise your eyeā¦ itās only teenage wastelandā
i graduate this spring and thatās obviously a big milestone. being in high school is kind of uniquely miserable and beautiful at the same time. iām glad to move on but itās bittersweet
iām trying to stay in the present while also remembering that this is really āteenage wastelandā i.e: slums of adolescence.. what feels big now wonāt ever matter again.
things might feel empty and really suck, but you gotta keep moving forward. i guess thatās what i learned this year.
long rant over now š§āāļø

at least casually. donāt delete the accounts but donāt have the apps on your phone either.
rediscover your love of reading thru the magic of recognizing titles strangers are holding on the subway. become a subway reader.
donāt use sound as an escape from your thoughts/feelings/surroundings. grocery shopping without headphones is actually kind of beautiful!
pick up a new hobby or two or three. one of them should be something youāre not good at, and at least one should be no- or low-cost.
never. stop. learning. the library, the parks and rec department, and nearby museums offer great materials already but also usually have free lectures or courses.
go outside more. like, a lot more.
(took this much less literally, so apologies if itās not what youāre looking for lol ā as a narcoleptic I have no tips on how to Not Sleep since Sleep is basically my job)
