DIARY, INVIERNO (WINTER)

Photograph by Le Cam Romain

If you like eating platefuls of spaghetti in the bathtub, and reading poetry whilst brushing your teeth, and hunting for strange things like antique glass eyeballs, and I like these things, you see, despite that society protests it’s a sin to be strange, the lie they feed the little ones like school lunches, so they’ll grow up full of untruths and stubborn.

Dreamers live like outlaws, the lost and the wild, at the fringes of society slinging their assault rifles of uniformity. Bullies and beasts will preach, “you’ll be unhappy until you’re like us,” but to be wholly yourself is paradise.

I do feel as though I don't belong and I get sad when my family doesn't like my perspective of life since I dream too much. I agree, dreamers live like outlaws

Everyone dreams - everyone's outside the Law - but to reject society's advances, no matter how seductive...that seems surreal.

I'm tired of the 'be like us to be happy' gang. It's tiring, isn't it, to be told what you need to be/do in order to be 'happy'. Happiness is personal and individual, long live the nonconformists!

I love the thought of saying poetry whilst brushing your teeth. I used to have a Beatles song cued to play while I brushed my teeth in the morning and it made me so happy. Must do this again! Dreaming is where it all happens!

I'm definitely a fan of anything you post. So I'm loving these shorter but more frequent updates.

This post especially as I've read poetry whilst brushing my teeth. Live like an outlaw, regret nothing. The world is more magical as a dreamer.

ps. I think I'd exchange clothing for traveling myself! The idea of spending a summer in India and various parts of Asia is appealing when compared to my relatively sheltered (and freezing) Midwestern North America experience at the moment.

this post is gorgeous!
glad to see you are posting a bit more regularly! I'm trying to get back on the blog horse too.

This post rings so true!
I've never belonged and that's just how I like it :)there's nothing that scares me more than being trapped in a box, both literally and by way of personality haha if that makes sense.
