we will run and scream, you will dance with me. they'll fulfill our dreams and we'll be free.

Guys, keeping up this blog is no joke. Either my days get away from me, or I realize that I have been lacking on the picture taking and have nothing really interesting to share. I know… excuses, excuses. Life has... Continue reading

i am no hero, oh that’s for sure. but i do know one thing is where you are, is where i belong.

There is something so very wonderful about having family just a quick drive away. I have definitely been feeling homesick lately and craving a little familiarity. I decided to drive to Raleigh a few weekends ago. And man, am I... Continue reading

and it’s a long way up when you hit the ground get up now, get up, get up now.

I'm not really sure how many times I can express my dislike for Monday. So I figure today I won't. You hear that Monday? I'm gonna be the bigger person and keep my thoughts to myself. My mom did always... Continue reading

take a bow cause you played your heart out. and take your time with working the rest out. and try and stay out of your head I have seen you invent the damnedest things there.

Do you ever have those nights where you lay awake thinking about how you got to be exactly where you are in that moment. And you can’t seem to shut your brain off from working overtime. And no matter how... Continue reading

talking like a jerk, except you are an actual jerk. and living proof that sometimes friends are mean.

Is there some rule that I am unaware of? The rule that if you are married or in a long-term relationship, it is your job to set up all your single friends? Married Friend: “So, how are you?” (Eyes sad,... Continue reading

Oh, hello Monday. I hate you just as much today as I did last week. Looks like our relationship will never change. Between you and I (don’t tell my boss) I almost called in sick to work. The thought of... Continue reading

I love this as much now as I did when I read it back in 2010. Link to the full article at the bottom. "Relationships aren't a lock. Instead, they're a curious evolution, a live animal, a partnership. You feed... Continue reading

now I don't know where I am, I don't know where i've been, but I know where I want to go.

Happy Monday? Ya, that didn't feel natural. “Happy” and “Monday” are obviously two words that do not belong together. Happy 1st of July! That felt a little better. Even though I can’t quite wrap my head around the fact that... Continue reading

I am still in shock that I live in North Carolina. Sometimes, I’ll get into my car and start driving and it will feel so surreal. I gotta say, I love it so far. I wish very much that my... Continue reading

what good is livin' a life you've been given if all you do is stand in one place?

“It’s going to take you some time to adjust”. “You are going to miss your family”. “Give yourself at least a year”. Those are all the things I was told in the months leading up to my move. While I... Continue reading

i am covered in skin. no one gets to come in. pull me out from inside. i am folded, and unfolded, and unfolding.

I'm mad. There I said it. When did it become such a big deal to feel emotion other than happiness and contentment? Why is it that we can't spend a season of our life just being mad and hurt and... Continue reading

After the 4th person I trapped in order to vent about something that happened to me, I realized I should probably put it on paper. You know, it might help put to rest the rage that still consumes me. With... Continue reading

laugh until we think we'll die, barefoot on a summer night. never could be sweeter than with you. and in the streets you run afree, like it's only you and me. home is whenever i'm with you.

The last time that I posted was in July of 2011. I know, I lose. BUT, I’m back and better than ever. And by better I mean exactly the same. Anyway… I’ve been reading a lot lately and it has... Continue reading

it's not a silly little moment. it's not the storm before the calm. this is the deep and dying breath of this love that we've been working on.

As little girls we learn at a young age exactly what our role in life is to be. We are given dolls, dress up clothes, makeup, and those little kitchens complete with every little accessory we could imagine. So we... Continue reading

my weakness I feel I must finally show. lend me your hand and we'll conquer them all. but lend me your heart and I'll just let you fall. lend me your eyes I can change what you see. but your soul you must keep, totally free.

The last few weeks I have been facing a pretty tough battle internally. At first, I thought I was going crazy. Especially because I wasn’t sure what was triggering all of this emotion. I found myself second-guessing my life decisions,... Continue reading

and i never wanted anything from you, except everything you had and what was left after that too. oh happiness hit her like a bullet in the head. struck from a great height by someone who should know better than that .

i've been tracing my steps in fingerprint clues and clips of the news. wondering why in our lives the wind calls our name and we're never the same. we were never meant to be this damn broken. words were never meant to be this half-spoken.

“There are few things sadder in this life than watching someone walk away after they've left you, watching the distance between your bodies expand until there's nothing... but empty space and silence.” I always think about how much easier life... Continue reading

hard to remember, summer or winter, when she hasn't been there for me. a friend and companion I can always depend on. my mother, that's who I need.

Happy Birthday Mom! There isn't another person on this planet that I look up to more than I do you. You are a living, breathing example of what a woman, mother, and wife should be. Thank for you all the... Continue reading

and she combed your hair, and she kissed your teeth and she made you better than you'd been before. she told you bad things you wished you could change in the lazy summer.

Last week marked the year anniversary of my breakup with my fiancé. To say it was an emotional week would be an understatement. I am happy to report that none of those emotions involved any feeling of regret or remorse... Continue reading

it's a big girl world now. full of big girl things. and everyday I wish I was small. i've been counting on nothing, but he keeps giving me his word. and I am tired of hearing myself speak. do you ever get weary? do you ever get weak?

This has been an emotional few months for me. It feels like life is throwing so many things at me and emotionally I am trying to deal with it all to the best of my ability. Normally I just take... Continue reading
