I have been many things, but I've never been weak. My strength holds me up and rests beneath my feet. My mind, body, and soul makes me complete. I have learned to conquer and control my own thoughts after suffering great defeat. If I could live all over again there is nothing in my life I would not repeat. I am who I am and that is my greatest feat. Be well and live well.

Weren't we all crazy in our sleep? What was sleep, after all, but the process by which we dumped our insanity into a dark subconscious pit and came out on the other side ready to eat breakfast instead of the neighbour's children?

thoughts

"You do not have to settle for less than you deserve. There are a few things in which you have a natural born right to demand. Requirements should always include respect, courage, kindness, honesty, and empathy. If those things are missing in any relationship, then a good and purposeful relationship does not exist."

C. Lynn Barton

thoughts

Some things are hard to write about. After something happens to you, you go to write it down, and either you over dramatize it, or underplay it, exaggerate the wrong parts or ignore the important ones. At any rate, you never write it quite the way you want to.

thoughts

I guess that's the point of it all. No one knows for certain how much impact they have on the lives of other people. Oftentimes, we have no clue. Yet we push it just the same.

thoughts

Life isn’t divided into genres. It’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you’re lucky.

thoughts

You can’t deny the influence of a former love or a broken relationship on a person’s heart. No matter what, a little piece of that person will remain with you.

thoughts

I’m a person that has high highs and low lows. A lot of things make me sad. Sometimes it’s almost easier to be sad. But you do end up finding a balance and I think that as I get older I am learning what I can do for myself to make me happy.

thoughts

I constantly feel like mother nature is in the same mood as I am.

the future scares me, so, so much. i can’t possibly imagine an older version of me, being anywhere in this world. the world is so fucking huge and i’m such a small speck of dust compared to everything, there is so much to see, so many people to meet, cultures to understand, music to hear, skies to sit under, things to feel and photographs to take. i want to travel everywhere, i want to see everything.

thoughts

Intimacy is a four syllable word for, ‘Here’s my heart and soul, please grind them into hamburger, and enjoy.’ It’s both desired, and feared. Difficult to live with, and impossible to live without.

thoughts

i just want to re-read all my old favourite books and play all my old favourite mp3s. i just want to sit here and let the stain of it all set in. i want to rub my fingers across the fading shadows that are carved into my room’s walls. i just want to be quiet for awhile, stay lost in the jaw of each night before the next morning swallows me whole. i’m afraid of what it means when we can’t be everything all of the time, that i can only just be something some of the time. i just want to go through everything i’ve written before and remember the way each one of them felt, remember them like seasons that make you nostalgic about the one you had before and how different this year is from the last. how each one carries with it these left over reminders of who you used to be. i just want to remember all the things i feel like i’m starting to forget.

thoughts

Life, she realized, was much like a song. In the beginning there is mystery, in the end there is confirmation, but it’s in the middle where all the emotion resides to make the whole thing worthwhile.

Every day is the best day ever. No second chances and no regrets, now and now and now. Memory is a reminder of… memory is a reminder that things were one way before, but TODAY is the chance to make everything how you want it to you be.
The first step is the first step towards the sun.
Start your day:

Today is going to be the best today that I can live.

In Your Eyes

Everytime my heart has been broken,
nothing but tears to support me
so I chained up my burning soul
with no hopes of it setting free.

The shackles held me down for so long,
even the dreams were forced into flame.
But once in a blue moon, a love comes
and life just never treats you the same.

Every trial of lonliness that ate me away,
The neglected one, with all the pain inside,
the support of tears have been replaced,
It all disappears in your beautiful eyes.

When we are embraced with pain, theres only one thing in this world that can take us away from it...
and it is the priceless treasure of love...
