Text: "Many people think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. ... Yes, evil often seems to surpass the good. But then in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope." --Vincent Van Gogh

Might be a slightly weird hill to die on on a Sunday evening, but i'm increasingly getting tired of the mentality that the only stories that matter are the meticulously worded, completed and published (maybe for free or for a price) ones. I'm getting tired of the mindset that the only works that matter are the ones choking on their wordcount and 56 chapters and linear structure and publication status.

Like, do y'all also go to a mother who's singing her child to sleep with a made up lullaby and tell her that her little nonsensical tale doesn't matter because it's less than 1k and doesn't use the top 10 harvard-approved adverbs and is not a completed 30 chapter book just out of publication??

would you pop up 8000 years ago beside the campfire of Shamans reinventing and remaking stories for children every night to tell these Shamans that their stories have no significance because they're not written and not complete 50 paged manuscripts?? Do you really think that every story that changed a person's life and affected their existence in the 8000 years we've been on this bitch of an earth, that it was written and told in a neat linear design and was published by some face???

Like, not to be dramatic on main but anyone who devalues "an incomplete wip" or "just an AU" or "an idea" is shallow as fuck, because we've been telling stories for as long as we've existed and not half of it was meant to last beyond us and our love for very select loved ones. Not half of it was meant to become a 3k paged classic novel; they were just a token of someone's heart and mind, a glimpse of them shared with another person out of love. Like i literally dont give a flying fuck that you think a piece that has less than 5k words does not make "a complete story", my best friend once gifted me a 200-word piece for my birthday when i was 16 and at 30 i still tell it to myself when i get woken up by nightmares at 3am and can't go back to sleep, because stories, whether ideas or published works, are pieces of other people staying with us come sun or rain. And i'm so fucking tired of storytelling turning into yet another chore to complete, to accomplish, to perfect. Stories are an act of love and you dont go about measuring the worth of love by how "exceptional" it is, you just value it for what it is. Because every expression of love is invaluable.

“if i am worth anything later, I am worth something now. for wheat is wheat, even if people think it is grass in the beginning”

If I am worth anything later, I am worth something now. For wheat is wheat, even if people think it is grass in the beginning.

meet the hobbs family 🍂

! tw mention of alcohol abuse

florence & elliot have sworn to each other that they will make a peaceful life for themselves.

not long after graduating from highschool, florence hobbs left henford under the advice of her father to 'lead a successful life'. turns out, the success most people find in san myshuno is an expensive, mouldy apartment, a toxic relationship and a draining office job. returning to henford after only a year was the hardest thing she had ever done - the fear of disappointing her father ran deep and she soon started spending her days at the village bar.

there, working the bar, was elliot goodwin - her old middle school classmate. it was no secret in henford that elliot completely cut ties with his wealthy and influential family. stuck as the often overlooked middle child, elliot felt suffocated on all sides: strict parents who demanded he pursue an economy degree (which he did not want), an overly egotistical older brother who was set to inherit the family's wine company, and a competitive younger brother who tried his hardest to steal it away.

they found each other on opposite sides of that bar, with very different backgrounds and struggles, but struggling nonetheless. months later, they started spending their days in the bramblewood instead.

falling in love, softly, quietly, as you do, with no hesitation.

after what seemed like the most transformative year of her life, florence learns she is pregnant with their son finley. soon elliot proposes, and they exchange vows in the bramblewood.

there were only peaceful days ahead: finn's birth, building their farmhouse, colourful vegetable patches, cricket - the puppy finn begged for on his 4th birthday, taking care of quirky geese, and most recently, the birth of their twin girls lacey and lorelai.

you seem like the type of guy to get your top surgery scars tatt'd

i actually havent yet! ive been wanting to get wheat stalks tattooed over them, for the van gogh quote "if i am worth anything later, i am worth something now. for wheat is wheat, even if people think it is a grass in the beginning." its just such a lovely quote; i really love van gogh, and the idea that who i was then is still meaningful to me now – even if it is different, im different, but i was always myself – well, it seems the most poignant thing to put over them. i still have some nerve damage around the ends under my arms, and it has admittedly put me off it a bit, but i very much want the tattoos
