This was a refreshing read. I hate doing my laundry, but knowing that someone has thought deeply into this routine and holds a meaning to it makes me consider changing my mind. You give heart and analysis. I look forward to my next read!

I hope this makes sense- reading this feels like an exhale, like a sigh of relief almost, a fully formed fantasy/thought released into the world, written in the most gentle tone of voice. I need you to publish a book:’)🤍

I’d still do my laundry. But instead of folding them, I’d let them lay in my coffin; just like they usually do on my bed before I find the motivation to fold. They’d remind me of the life I lived in them. The scent of fresh clothes, carried with me into eternal rest.
