Things can change over time, what looks fixed and pinned and closed in a life can change and open, and what’s unthinkable and impossible at one time will easily be possible in another.

“Books mean all possibilities. They mean moving out of yourself, losing yourself, dying of thirst and living to your full. They mean everything.” ― Ali Smith.

Ali Smith | the accidental

[seemoreandmore]

Tonight I can smell the season the way it's usually only possible to at the very first moments of its return, before you're used to it, when you've forgotten its smell, then there it is back in the air and the flow of things shifting and resettling again.

She is at her desk deep in a book, half-opened books all over her desk, all over the floor and the bed. She likes to read, she reads all the time, and she prefers to be reading several things at once, she says it gives endless perspective and dimension.

Some reading and life moments later.

I’ve been to the beach, been swimming in the sea and enjoying my reading. I managed to read Spring while it’s still technically spring (just) and I’m obsessed with Ali Smiths writing.
