things

"Learn to value yourself, which means: fight for your happiness."


Ayn Rand


(And oh, am I fighting.

 Because things are quite difficult right now. Too much to be done, never enough hours in a day. Difficulties sleeping and too much anxiety.

But there are good things too. This early-autumn sharpness in the air, the underwater sunlight after a downpour, the clatter of trams over cobblestones and skipping down the steps of the library after a good cram session. Good little things, waiting to be noticed.)
