The responses are rough, man π Some of yβall are hanging on just out of spite - which is totally valid tho. Hope you all will be able to find beauty in the world again and enjoy life!
For me itβs my family. Had a real fucking shitty day yesterday. Everything went wrong and then some. Then just got a glimpse of a picture of my son playing with his grandparents, laughing, happy. That was it, my day got 1200% better that instant.
Same, although my offspring has already left the nest, but addition to the Mrs I got my house full of plants and animals.
Maybe I'm not that sane π€
Ahh, yes. I can also add plants and pets to the list!
Go over bury your face in the plushy fur of your dog/cat? Day suddenly looks way less gloomy.
And fuck, it is a good feeling to see a new leaf or bloom sprouting from your favourite plant-Bro π
My cats don't like when I "blow bubbles" in their stomach (Devon Rex, so almost hairless stomach), but I still do it π. Dog is sharped so that it's dick reaches it's chest plate, so that's a no go.
