16:04 escapism.

"through the loveliness and power of her dream world she was now, in her old frock and botched shoes, very likely the loveliest, mightiest and most dangerous person on earth" - Karen Blixen

mulholland drive. pulp fiction.

this weekend was full of escapism. immersion into places that you could never.

really enter.

it's the cure for a perpetual.

case of loneliness.

even though it's temporary. and even though it's not.

actually fixing anything.

it makes me feel. about something.

other than myself. for a change.

because it gets so exhausting.

and so unbearable. existing in your own skin sometimes.

karen blixen was a genius who just understood.

"I have read true piety defined as: loving one’s destiny unconditionally – and there is something in it. That is to say: I think that in a way this sort of “religiousness” is the condition for real happiness. "




"When in the end, the day came on which I was going away, I learned the strange learning that things can happen which we ourselves cannot possibly imagine, either beforehand, or at the time when they are taking place, or afterwards when we look back on them." – Out of Africa, 1937
