[Text ID: “There is still one difference left between us. You have a tenderness grown weary and I have a weariness grown tender.”]

I am tired of myself in every way. All things, deep down to the secret of their roots, are stained by the color of my weariness.

-- Fernando Pessoa

“Are you weary, carrying a heavy burden? Come to me. I will refresh your life, for I am your oasis.

Another year, another collection on April Fools' shenanigans! Tumblr's booping system is easily the most fun site-wide prank this time around, it's been stupidly endearing to just throw boops at random strangers and mutuals alike. Flight Rising's renamed flights/elements and dA's new branding are not much to write home about, but then again TWWM's Ikkit takeover has been also very amusing thing to witness.

Whispering winds

In winds that whisper through the night,

Your giggles echo, pure and light.

A gentle tune, a soothing art,

like medicine for my weary heart.

Renewed Strength

Even youths are wearied and fatigued, And young men utterly stumble, But those expecting Jehovah pass [to] power, They raise up the pinion as eagles, They run and are not fatigued, They go on and do not faint! — Isaiah 40:30-31 | Young's Literal Translation of the Holy Bible (YLT) Young’s Literal Translation of the Holy Bible is in the public domain.

Within you there is the weariness of a wing that has been stretched a long time.
