If you are traveling towards the Litani River, please deliver my greetings.

Say Good morning to the people of Nabatieh, and pass by a bit to Khiam.

And tell her that Hajj Muhammad misses his family and friends,

At Hay El Sellom they didn't enjoy their stay, his eyes kept longing for his homeland.

Tell her that his eyes are asleep, but his heart is awake

If you are traveling towards my homeland, please deliver my greetings.

Inform my family and children, that the pigeons flock misses them,

And tell her that its days are always in mind, by God, its days are the dearest to me.

I must sleep. Sleep is the mind-healer. Sleep is the big-life that brings total ability to fucking do anything. I will face my bed. I will permit the blankie to pass over me and snores to pass through me. And when sleep has gone past I will turn the outer eye to greet the new morning. When the sleep has gone there will be everything. Energy and will to live will remain.

#having a come to Jesus with myself about trying to work late #sleep is the only path to productivity. rest is the only thing that lets me get things done. #litany against not laying down

when olivia rodrigo said “tried so hard to be everything that you like/ just for you to say you’re not the compliment type” and when chappell roan said “And I try to be the chill girl/That holds her tongue and gives you space” and when richard siken said “Love, for you, is larger than the usual romantic love… it’s like a religion. it’s terrifying. no one will ever want to sleep with you” and when mitski said “So if you need to be mean/Be mean to me” and dodie said “I kissed someone because it's fair/ Oh, do I tell you, would you care?/ So deeply hurt, you beg for who/ Or are you kissing someone too?” and when boygenius said “I came prepared for absolution, if you'd only ask/ So I take some offense when you say, ‘No regrets’” and when girl in red said “So, I'll be willing to let this die, / Able to look you right in the eyes, / Say I'm not your consolation prize” and when

TEXT ID: Love, for you, is larger than the usual romantic love. It's like a religion. It's terrifying.

I must create and share it, not for the note counts but for the love of it. Note counting is the joy-killer. Note counting is the little death of creativity that brings total burnout. I will create without care. I will share it online and let the notifications pass by without a sound. And when the hellsite hides my creation, I will let the disappointment pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn my eye to the inner truth: that my love for what I created will remain.

#litany against notes #maureen thank you for your help with the wording <3 #i have not read/seen a dune in absolute eons #inspired by the perils of gifmaking #but i left it vague enough for anyone who creates anything and shares it online #engagement metrics don't matter! your feelings about what you made do <3
