A little Catradora cottagecoreπβ¨πΌππΏ
I donβt want to grow up
I wanna build a fort in the woods and play using sticks as swords
None of my friends wants to play anymore.
a concept: itβs just chilly enough to warrant a thick sweater. the rain beats against the window. thereβs a homemade pie in the oven, and its scent fills the room. the cat is snoring softly near the hearth. life is calm.
but sir, thatβs my emotional support unachievable dream scenario that I came up with in my head
my cat has come to bestow upon you only the finest vibes ππΊππΏοΈππͺ΄πβ¨π―π
all i really want in life is a small cabin where i drink tea and pick flowers is that too much to ask
i love the idea of living close to nature. be it up in the cold mountains in a log cabin with a green tin roof, and solar panels in the yard, or in a country cob cabin with a living roof, nestled into a meadow somewhere beautiful and hot. i want to live close to the earth and be familiar with her. i don't want a television. i want a book shelf and some vinyl records and a turntable with lots of speeds. i want to dance with my husband and our kids in the living room and make tea and salads with the herbs and flowers, which we foraged. maybe iβll un-school my kids, or iβll send them to a Waldorf school (depending on the opportunities wherever we land). ill teach them witchcraft, but also to respect all faiths and ideologies (which pose no direct harm to others). ill send them to the local synagogue with my Jewish friends, to the mosque with my Muslim friends, to temple with my Hindu friends, and so on. i want open an open-minded, and kind-hearted family.Β my husband and i will kiss often, sometimes in front of the kids, and they will groan and roll their eyes, but ultimately they are learning that that's how their future partner should treat them. we might have chickens in the yard, and maybe one or two roosters. maybe a greenhouse, where i can grow fresh herbs and greens year round (if we are so blessed with the money to do so). i'll enroll my kiddos in book clubs at the local library, and read books to them with no pictures when they are bored. i will allow them the time to just rest. i don't care how loud, or odd, or sassy my kids might be, i care only that they are gentle with others and do their best to understand others. iβll go on dates with my husband long after we are married, we will wander, weaving through the mountains or meadows. i will run my hands through his hair and gaze into his eyes as i do now, before the altar. if we have the money, iβll put a swimming/fishing pond in the yard. we'll have lots of pets, and homestead animals and we'll nurture injured animals we encounter. i canβt wait for one day to come to me.
