– Oscar Wilde

We live in a world filled with old books, cups of tea sipped over conversations with a friend, music waiting to be heard, and endless questions longing to be answered. There are so many marvelous things around us all the time, and it can be so pleasant to slow down for a moment to take them all in.

Literally just romanticize your own life. What’s stopping you. Who will care. Commit to enjoying things.
