Pick a pile

Pile 1:

8 of Pentacles: Your hard work & efforts are resulting in quality things and products. You may be investing more into a skill, your education, work, a relationship, etc. Your investments will result in quality results.

Pile 2:

King of Pentacles: You are moving towards more financial stability this month. Or this can be a situation in your life becoming more stable. This could also mean investments from a male figure in your life.

With it being the last day of April, I feel disappointed with the amount I’ve read this month. Or should I say didn’t read. This has been such a bad reading month for me. I blame it on the mental heath.

I’ve been so depressed that the act of reading has felt like a chore. I hate it. I hate feeling like my favorite thing to do is a chore.

I have always loved reading. It’s been an escape from reality. I have always been the type to prefer reading over watching tv or movies.

This is the sad reality of struggling with depression. As much as I want to read, long to read, my brain stops me. It makes me feel like I’m doing a chore. It makes me feel like doing nothing but bed rotting.

As much as I want to be mad with myself for not reading as much as I want to, I know there’s not much in my control to fix it. I refuse to force myself to read when I’m feeling like this. I don’t want to ruin my love of reading by making it feel like a chore I have to do. I want reading to stay something I want to do.

I know I’m not alone in this struggle. Mental health matters. Getting help is important and not something you should be ashamed of. This too will pass.

I just think it would be funny if Leo was born with the ability to see auras but has 0 idea that this is not normal, and then just naturally assumes when people talk about ‘vibe checks’ they’re checking the mood of someone’s aura.

there's nothing quite like a random piece of media you consumed ages ago and loved at the time but kinda forgot about after coming back to you years later absolutely out of nowhere like "you thought you could forget about me? don't worry! i'm here to be the only thing you care about yet again" and then the cycle repeats

it's fun but also painful because the intensity of the obsession revived makes it hard to focus on anything else like someone get these fictional people out of my head please

A busy and bookish April! 😊📚 #1940Club

A busy and bookish April! 😊📚 #1940Club

I can’t believe we’re already at the end of another month – at this rate, it will be summer before we know it, although the weather is not doing much to convince me that we’re even in spring… However, April was a bumper month for books, and I once more read some great titles. Here’s my stack for the month, and although there are less in number than usual, there are some fascinating chunksters;…
