thinking about the girl who was abused so much by her former caretaker that she turned invisible(!), so moomin-mamma took her in + the moomins treated her with so much love and compassion that she slowly became visible again.

In Tuulikkis copy of “The invisible child”, Tove wrote: “Thank you for making me stop being invisible”

I think i met an angel on the train

This older man moved my skirt aside and I absent-mindedly said "oh sorry" for being partially in his seat and he said "dont be sorry, this is new york" and then showed me all his poetry about observing the world and living as a restaurant worker during the pandemic and we talked about how i worked in a grocery store and as a bartender so i resonated with his work and he told me "i may never meet you again but it's nice to meet someone worth talking to. I might sound like a world class idiot sage, but you can't be afraid. That's no way to live. You have to trust your humanity." Then he shook my hand and got off the stop before me. Hello. Hello . Hello.

Thinking of the extraordinary and beloved River Phoenix, who was born on this day in 1970. Here he is giving one of his finest performances in Gus Van Sant’s My Own Private Idaho (1991), a moving look at unrequited love & life on society’s margins.
