2025: My year in scarves

This year I cut the bullshit and started living my "The Green Ribbon" fantasy.

I covered 25% of the earth's circumference and my neck skin.

Welp. I realized a month or so ago I was still reading my book from April and wouldn't be making my reading goal for the year. However, I finished that and two more books to get me to my 50% of goal mark. Still feels like a win when I hadn't read for several years before last year. Onto the next 🌈📚

Celebrated the 30th anniversary of crying myself to sleep on my 7th birthday because I was getting old. Buckle up, kiddo.

The force is strong with me. Mando's handler asked everyone "Francais? English?" but to me he just said "Bonjour, Francais?"
Each time I was mistaken for a local was :: chef's kiss ::
And then I opened my mouth.

"The beauty one finds alone is a prayer that longs to be shared" (imagine this is set to Miley's "Prelude")
Also, I cried 5 times during the final 12 hours because I love #Paris so much.
I'm so grateful to @yonka.paris for this once in a lifetime experience.

An odd, uneven blip of a book that had the emotional bones that Luca was able to cover in flesh (literally) for the film. It was interesting to see how Luca curated Burroughs' fragmented manuscript... 🌈📚

Realized I didn't share last week's poem.

I think this is my most succinct expression of experiencing anxious attachment.
