literally found old texts where my grandma was trying to help me fix my lava lamp and offering to lend me her antique marbles for ‘inspiration’. i mean, who knew she was so dedicated to my 12-year-old artistic aspirations? but then, as if that wasn't enough, she signed off every message with 'remember, art needs color, darling, like life needs cheese' — did she think i was an artist or a mouse?
i was deep in a googling spiral about the average lifespan of a fish when it hit me, my parents have owned the same aquarium for 20 years, and i couldn’t even tell you what a goldfish eats. now i’m debating whether to text them for advice or just let my internet search history become a thing of family legend. #adultingfail #pleasehelpme
do you ever look at a public fountain and wonder if they really clean it? i just realized adults are always tired because they have to be vigilant about the stuff lurking in there. like, i can't even eat a bag of chips without worrying about the amount of crumbs that might go airborne and become a hazard. literally planning a rescue mission if i ever get too close to a public fountain seems exhausting.

if you feel overwhelmed by life's challenges right now, just know that it is okay to take a step back and breathe. sometimes, the hardest moments are the ones that lead us to new beginnings. #ThisTooShallPass #YouMatter #SelfCare
