yutori the conscious act of slowing down to allow us to savour the world around us. the refusal to rush. no talking. just absorbing the world around us with no goal except to see. spaciousness.

It’s fun starting a new hobby with ADHD because I never know if I’ve found a new lifelong passion or if I’m going to spend $2000 on stuff and immediately lose all interest

I keep finding these in one particular spot. It’s on the Southbank where there were once several glassworks. Are they something to do with glass making or something else?

🖼️ A Quiet and Peaceful Day in Istanbul, 1900s

"The rose bride has wedded the groom of the morning breeze,
The nightingales of the meadow have risen, singing to her.."

[𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗜𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗙𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗹𝘁 𝗧𝗲𝘅𝘁] #history #poem #poetry #spring #peace
"The rose bride has wedded the groom of the morning breeze, The nightingales of the meadow have risen, singing to her. The nightingale’s nose is filled with the scent of loyalty, The buds have found their worth with the splendor of spring. The rose bride has once again sent the nightingales as heralds, She presents her dowry to the people, unveiling her treasures. Let us wander with torn collars, oh Âlî, Let us go to the garden and greet all people of the heart." Âlî, Gelibolulu Mustafa (1541-1600)
