T.O.D: Day 2
One day, some day, this exact moment in time will make all the sense in the world to me. If nothing else, I can relish that fact, that I am right now living in a moment that will be immortalized as part of my history… and I am sure I will look back on it with a fondness that I can’t fathom from my current point of perspective.

Perhaps we don’t have beginnings or endings. Maybe books don’t just open and close. Maybe we layer the stories of our life on top of each other.

Oh yeah…I’m SO there.
Because the thing is, (my friends often...
All My Lovin'
Two things happened to me within the past few days that have brought me incredible happiness (albeit, nostalgia) and wisdom.
1: I celebrated my 23rd birthday
2: I decorated for Christmas
Birthdays have always been super magical for me. At times it was troubling because I would build up such expectations for surprise and wonderment that they could not be met… and the only thing worse...
