when my 3yo hugs me and says “mijn papaatje”, i am so flooded with love it’s hard to care about anything else right there and then. but moments later, that love radiates into the rest of my life; to aspire to be kind to myself and others, to make art, to be a friend, to listen, to care.
there are some things put all other things into sudden perspective
precisely, and yet it’s so ephemeral and fleeting and i need it regularly. it’s so easy for me to get stuck in details and thoughts and important day to day stuff
