Even in a cold world, there’s always tea and poetry to warm your soul.

Welcome to a haven for old souls.

my precious organic gardening/horticulture nerd sister was literally jumping up and down for joy over the idea of having a regenerative organic farmer advising the USDA

the kids are alright 🥹

Flannery O’Connor, fiction readers get it

[Dylan O'Sullivan @DylanoA4]

C. S. Lewis, stop overthinking it and just act like a good person

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

@suzania @Plough It would be interesting to read a piece which interviewed workers from less glamorized professions--carpenters, hotel managers, janitors, pig farmers, and consider the perspective of people who enjoy working even if their jobs aren't celebrated.

IT IS RAINING AND THIS MEANS MY PEAS WILL GROW EVEN FASTER WHAT JOY

@MeaghanRutherf8 Once they warm up to us I shall try!

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

you know those cows all over #cottagecore Instagram?

My dad just bought three Highlands and let me tell you they are every bit as cute in person

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

@MeaghanRutherf8 SO FLUFFY

apparently they’re comfortable being brushed so once they warm up to us we can brush them!

@joewittebrood @LifeMoreSweet WHAT WHY would you try to break off their horns? That’s so horrible!

But hurrah for the swans! That’s amazing!

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

@LifeMoreSweet they’re so lovable!

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

@haileyh412 on average probably about 3, but sometimes more if we’re watching movies with friends!

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

lately I’ve been romanticizing my own life

(making my bed and cleaning the bathroom)

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

ideally, we probably want a bit of both. but as an author, I want to write characters whose ordinary love becomes extraordinary. Not by passionately declaring, “I would die for you,” but by quietly living for them.

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

I love Pride and Prejudice and a good L. M. Montgomery romance as much as any daydreamer. But as a writer, I want the ships in my books to have an *achievable* love.

lovers who can just live life together, and have an ordinary, kind, everyday kind of love? that is precious.

[Bethany Rose @wildrosejournal]

anyway, what kind of love would you rather have? the kind that makes passionate declarations, or the kind that stays up all night with the baby or drives the dog to the vet after an extra long shift?

the kind that speaks, or the kind that does?
