I don’t if I’m just weird or something, but yesterday at 1 am I was literally crying and you know why? because I was so overwhelmed by the two most marvelous things we have in this world. I don’t think people have any idea of how beautiful literature and music are. I mean, humans have done terrible things to this world, but if there’s something they, we actually, have done that brought beauty to this world is culture. maybe this doesn’t make any sense but, have u ever thought about how many books we can read? how much music we can listen to? what if there’s not enough time? I don’t wanna die knowing I didn’t spend my time searching for new songs and new books. I wanna immerge myself in culture. I want to read all Shakespeare’s works. I want to have children and pass down to them the passion for literature and music. and sometimes this love, this obsession it’s just too much and I almost can’t stand it. but please, all of u who are reading this thing a seventeen-year-old girl is writing, open your eyes and see how much beauty there’s in this sometimes awful world and worship it. quoting the movie “Dead Poets Society”: «but poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.»
