Albert Camus: A society based on symbols is an artificial society
“Consumer society can be defined as a society in which objects disappear and are replaced by symbols. When the ruling class no longer measures its wealth in acres of land or gold bars, but rather by how many digits ideally correspond to a certain number of financial transactions, then that society immediately links itself toContinue reading “Albert Camus: A society based on symbols is an artificial society”
Comforting Thought: No is also an action
“no” is also an action
let it be your own approval

It’s aContinue reading “The messiness of being a woman”

“How people perceive you
is more reflective of
their inner mechanics
than your actions
you cannot control
how others think and live,
but you can be intentional
about the energy you put into the world
some may misunderstand you,
but what matters most is that you
