Ecaterina
Teodoroiu (1894-1917) is considered a heroine in Romania for her role during World
War I. She fought and died on the battlefield, while leading an infantry
division.
She was responsible for setting up the first Scouts organizations in her
country. Even though she was a battlefield nurse at first, she started fighting,
driven by the deaths of all four of her brothers. Today, she is remembered
through several monuments and names of institutions in Romania.
do u ever remember all the horrible offensve things u said when u were like 15 and u literally feel ur soul detach and turn 2 dust
your fave is problematic: yourself
Basically, yeah. That’s kind of the point – you always have to look back on yourself and be mortified and resolve to be better.
Shit, the stuff I said just five YEARS ago (and I’m almost 33) makes me cringe like a motherfucker.
Burn in mortification. Rise from the ashes and be better. Lather, rinse, repeat for the rest of your life.
This is why purity culture doesn’t work!!! We’re all shit! We can all grow and do better!
Processing new information and using it to improve your ideas, to grow and change, is one of the most human and admirable things you can do with your life.
In Russian, there are many expressions with the word душа (soul) that are used in everyday speech (maybe this is why people talk about the mysterious Russian soul). I find it curious how quite often their English equivalents contain the word ‘heart’, not ‘soul’.
(За)душевная беседа - heart-to-heart talk
В душе - inwardly, in one’s heart, at heart
Говорить по душам - to talk heart-to-heart
Для души – for one’s own pleasure
Душа компании - life of the party
Душа нараспашку - to wear one’s heart on one’s sleeve
A while back I heard my friend (male) insult another dude by saying, “You look like the kind of guy who wouldn’t go to Wal-Mart to buy his girlfriend a box of tampons” and I still think about that crowning insult sometimes
My dad once called another guy “someone who thinks loading the dishwasher once in a while makes him less of a man”
I like your dad already
one time my dad’s boss was giving him shit for always leaving work early so he could get home and help my mom with me when i was a newborn and his boss said “i’ve never changed a diaper in my life” really proudly and my dad responded “i’d be ashamed to ever admit i was that worthless of a husband”
Army of Little Blue, where puff's get made. But never actually get posted on Tumblr for some reason, maybe I'll get around to it some day. If you want a puff all you have to do is ask and I will post one for you!
