#small happiness

May I delight everyone with the tiniest rainbow I’ve ever seen? Hope it gives you a smile today.

It’s raining, I’m sitting on my balcony wrapped in a blanket, drinking coffee and writing—can there be anything better than that?

DAY 730

This marks the SECOND YEAR of this blog! (Second year as in the amount of daily happys I’ve done, not the actual amount of days)

I love making these posts and looking back at them. It’s nice to know that there really is something good about everyday. And even if it’s small, it made me happy. And that’s a pretty big deal.

Thank you for being here with me ❤️

simple joy:

this monkey path is so straight and clean it looks machine-made

Happiness is not a constant feeling especially in this current world but to find it in the little things,gestures is what makes this life a little, more easier!

Neil Gaiman Voice: "Yay! Fame at last"

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saw my own post on the #azicrow tag and lost my shit.

For a person that gets forgotten and left behind at college, family gatherings, parties, whatever, knowing that people out there saw stuff I made and liked and/or re-blogged it (even if it is a handful of lovely neurodivergent fandom peeps like me) is the best feeling ever.

Love you all.

Meena. x

P.S. keep re-blogging and liking stuff on this hell-site (affectionate). You don't know how much it matters to those who make the content.

So today, something happened. It's such a small thing but I just wanted to put it out there somewhere. At the beginning of the year, I sat down and wrote somethings that I wanted to do this year, starting from the mundane to perhaps some slightly more challenging stuff.

We've gotten through half of the year, and I happened to pull out my journal, and come across this list. And as I was reading through, and ticking off a few of those mini check boxes, I realised how much I've grown as a human being. It's so easy to lose track of progress for things that people don't necessarily concern with "productive" but I think it's so important to keep check of that.

It made me smile, the simplicity of it all, and that as everyday goes by, i do actually become older and wiser and i- break free with every passing day.

Kak sua, my love! Hidup emang ngga bisa happy terus tapi aku beneran berdoa semoha kak Sua bisa ngerasain kebahagiaan terus tiap harinya. Semoga selalu dikasi Tuhan alasan kecil dan besar buat bahagia tiap harinya. Jaga kesehatan selalu kak, love you! 🤍

Halo, my luv ❤️ hahaha kaget dikit ada yg mampir ke siniii, tapi aku seneng! Hehe

Btw makasih banyak ya… aku lagi banyak merenung (?) belakangan ini. Kayak, hidup tuh lucu ya (anjay). Satu detik kita bisa seeeneeeeeng bgt, tapi tau-tau detik berikutnya ada aja yg bikin sedih, stres, marah, dll. Makanya, makasih banyak buat doanya! Emang hal kecil yg bisa bikin bahagia tuh penting bgt ya biar masih termotivasi hidup 🫠 Karena itu kan hal-hal yg bikin kita bersyukur juga ya. Semoga kamu pun selalu dikasih kebahagiaan-kebahagiaan kecil yg nanti makin numpuk jadi makin besar & banyak! 🥰

Take care! ❤️

she's singing in another room and my dog is asleep at my feet. my grandma asked me why i haven't found a man yet and i laughed. oh, you know. i like my house clean.

my girlfriend is also my man is also "my partner" if i'm in a professional setting. yesterday we went to a ren faire and a man mimed at me - you're together? and at my delighted nod, his baffled, you're gay? made me laugh. a woman with rainbow hair said i love the two of you together. you're both so beautiful it's absurd.

my dad introduced my partner as my "..... friend. or whatever" the other day. he knows we're dating. in the same way, i was never able to get my sister's husband to stop saying that's gay like it's 2008. he still uses the word fa***t, and my sister's defense of him has always been well, he's just kidding.

my lover and i dance to old music in a tiny kitchen. we judge new music together and take food critique very seriously. we watch love is blind before we fall asleep and agree that if they had a queer season, it would be bloody but also make for excellent tv. of fucking course queer people would know someone for only 2 weeks and agree to get married. what are you saying.

at a bar with friends, a man puts his hand on my wrist. got a boyfriend? and yes, i do have a boyfriend, she's amazing. i am texting her while i wander around a gas station named after geese. i am visiting a swing state for a wedding. in the candy aisle i overhear: she's actually like a lesbian it's disgusting. two teenage girls with packaged sandwiches in their hands, giggling. no literally, like. i'm not, like. okay with her being there while we're all, like, naked and changing.

my girlfriend and i tailgate, drink gin and cider out of cups. from the frat group beside us, a man corrects himself with one of his friends: bro, i mean, nonbinary entity, and it makes everyone around him laugh, myself included. he razzes his friend the same way i would have killed for at 19 years old - like nothing happened, he continues: you apply sunscreen like an alien. he does a little sassy (and fairly accurate) dance interpretation of the motion. his friend is laughing so hard they're crying.

i am lucky, i live in a safe neighborhood in a safe state. my masc passenger princess comes up from DC. i drive her for an hour to where all the leaves are a violent arrangement of color. we walk along the trails, letting autumn into our blood. in this part of the state, there's a lot of pickup trucks and trump signs. when we chastely kiss before getting into the car, i accidentally make eye contact with a woman holding her child's wrist. she looks disgusted. she looks fucking pissed.

two hours later my girl and i are eating dinner on a patio, soaking in the last warmth of new england sun before the chill of winter sets in. we are giggling and trying to talk through plastic vampire teeth. at another table, i see a young woman sit up straighter. i watch her watch us. she blushes and takes her partner's hand from across the table. shy, like the taste of evening has just become something deeper.

it's worth it for this moment, i think. my lover is still humming the same song she's been singing for four days straight and i don't want to kill her for it. her guitar is beside my bed. her toothbrush is in my bathroom. in a few moments i will make us lunch. we are lucky enough to have found each other. it is lucky enough to be in love.
