This August I began to dream of drowning.

“I love borders. August is the border between summer and autumn; it is the most beautiful month I know. Twilight is the border between day and night, and the shore is the border between sea and land. The border is longing: when both have fallen in love but still haven't said anything. The border is to be on the way. It is the way that is the most important thing.”
-Tove Jansson, The Summer Book (trans. Thomas Teal)

In just a few hours, we are transitioning to august. Just like that! Can't wait for more rainy mornings, listening to folklore album especially "august" while sipping coffee. Cozy days wearing sweaters watching the rain fall.
August, im hoping you'll have good things in store for me ♡
