towards a new romanticism

It’s hard being a romantic these days. Those rose colored glasses just don’t work like they used to. The pretty distractions that once gave me escape have become the bright pink highlighters of my unhappiness. I mean, when sorrow seems so inevitable it makes sense to just lay back and enjoy what you can. Only a little while of lounging though and I’m unimpressed with what’s left to ‘enjoy’. I watch a picturesque sunset because I’ve been moping in my room all day and should probably get some vitamin-D. I lay in the park next to some flowers to breathe and be seen, both of which have become very hard for me. I go to my favorite bagel spot so often I think they’re starting to get annoyed with me. It used to be my little special treat, but having a treat all the time really doesn’t make it seem so special anymore. I’m trying to live but it’s not working, I know I’m missing something. I miss red. Never constant in my life but always existing in my crayon box, always possible. Nothing new feels possible anymore, so sticking to what I know seems the best option. I treat myself some more, languishing in the fantasies of movies I’ve seen 100 times before, but I’m starting to wonder… What good are rom coms if I’ve given up on love? How can I make art when I’m worrying about being behind on rent? What use are flowers at a time like this?!

I insist that I am a romantic, not an idealist. Love is real and truth is beautiful and optimism is necessary. The problem isn’t the roses, it’s the glasses. Wouldn’t it be nice to see and enjoy the world as it is? No pink potemkin village needed, a world with all its colors and insides exposed: true and beautiful. To realize this world we must start from an honest place, a real assessment of our circumstances and the state of life as it exists today; from there we can trace our history and begin to shape a new one. This world will require new definitions and conceptions of love and beauty and art, going beyond the confines of what society has prescribed as possible. The romantics of the past have been suckers for nostalgia, and so it seems the new romantics should be servants of the future.

Throughout this project I’ll be exploring what it really means to be a romantic today. Through classic and contemporary culture and history, I’ll be assessing the good and the bad, the ugly and the beautiful, the rose and its thorns. Hopefully we’ll be able to look at the past, to understand our present more honestly, and to dream for something that is not just beautiful; but real and possible.

C.S. Lewis once wrote,

"I sat with my anger long enough until she told me her real name was grief"

And I think we all needed to hear that.

"But there is a clarity about September. On clear days, the sun seems brighter, the sky more blue, the white clouds take on marvelous shapes; the moon is a wonderful apparition, rising gold, cooling to silver; and the stars are so big."

– Faith Baldwin, Evening Star

"so you think that a society that functions around a child military instead of the entire city of literal adults might be indicative that their attitudes and ideals are a bit off ? and that by moving to New Rome Percy is not actually escaping his life as a demigod but instead is just giving himself a whole new set of problems to deal with? "

#the comments and tags on my other posts are making me realize that people dont view New Rome like the nightmare that I do lmao #look I know its because Riordan didn't think it through #but the implications of New Rome are so fucked up #children being branded children DYING #while the adults are just chilling??#listen the best way I can describe it #is it feels as if you took 12 year old annabeth's wide eyed romanticized view of the gods and quests from book 1 #and created an entire society with it #they're not jaded #they're not disillusioned #at least not as an entirety #idk idk just SOMETHING sinister is in the water there #pjo #mine #new rome

"In the deepening spring of May, I had no choice but to recognize the trembling of my heart. It usually happened as the sun was going down. In the pale evening gloom, when the soft fragrance of magnolias hung in the air, my heart would swell without warning, and tremble, and lurch with a stab of pain. I would try clamping my eyes shut and gritting my teeth, and wait for it to pass. And it would pass –but slowly, taking its own time, and leaving a dull ache behind."

– Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood
