how i romanticize my life :
slow mornings, having tea, listening to the birds sing, writing in my journal, watching my favorite cottagecore videos, taking afternoon walks, picking flowers, having picnics, watching my comfort films, baking sweet treats, reading before bed using candlelight 🌿🫖🌷🍰

I remember when I protested being dragged to church by not standing during worship or singing along. Nowadays I can't remember the last time I've been in a church.
Sundays is for enjoying quiet mornings with coffee, sleeping in, taking walks as the sun rises across the sky, meeting with friends. Not for worshipping a cruel, dead god.
