Moving at My Own Pace


she's banged up.
mentally and emotionally
literally and metaphorically
but everyday she walks outside with a smile on her face
because that's who she is
& because she's the hero of her own story.

 I have to remind myself that no one is going to make my dreams come true for me. It is my job to get up every day and work toward the things that are deepest in my heart, and to enjoy every step of the journey rather than wishing I was already where I want to end up.


I'm still not sure about a lot of things. and i feel like that's been looked down upon, but the way i see it is, i'm taking my time....
I'm taking my time deciding what I want to do...
who I want to be...
& who I want to be with...

stop hating on me for that!!
let me enjoy the ride.

                Dream on...

The Girl All The Bad Boys Want...

I often realize...

I find myself in the damnedest places.

That is the perfectly formulated way to describe my life.

This last week I got the random opportunity to go to Vegas with a company to work at the Interbike trade show.

& after 20 seconds of insane courage and winning a bet made by a co-worker, my trip ended with these boys.


I mean who gets the chance hang out and walk the strip with Maris Strombergs until 8 in the morning.
If you're not green with jealous rage that this point..
 let me tell you....
you should be.


I find myself in the damnedest places.. ;]

every experience is a life lesson, so...

  You are the books you read
the films you watch
the music you listen to,
 the people you meet,
 the dreams you have, 
the conversations you engage in.

 You are what you take from these. 
You are the sound of the ocean, the breath of fresh air, the brightest light and the darkest corner. 
You are a collection of every experience you have had in your life. 
You are every single day. 
So drown yourself in a sea of knowledge and existence.
 Let the words run through your veins and let the colors fill your mind. 

take chances.
 risk looking like a fool.
& just go for it.

With Every Inch....

Learn to  the fool in you
 the one who feels too much,
 talks too much, 
takes too many chances,
 wins sometimes and loses often, 
lacks self control,
 loves and hates, 
hurts and gets hurt,
 promises and breaks promises,
 laughs and cries.

 It alone protects you against that utterly self-controlled, masterful tyrant whom you also harbor and who would rob you of human aliveness, humility, and dignity.

They Say Good Things Take Time..


You're interesting
and you're different
 and I like that 
I've needed that.





You're a breath of fresh air.
a moment of relief.

I'm giddy again.
Like the cute little girl on her first day of school.

I'm blushing.
all smiles.
&& giggles. 




                      I think i'm....

For that smile...
            that laugh...
                       those eyes...

It's that moment when you don't want to admit you're smitten.

&& tangled up in feelings

One In A Million.

It’s a strange thing, 
how you can love somebody, 
how you can be all eaten up inside with needing them-
and they simply don’t need you.
That’s all there is to it.
and neither of you can do anything about it.
And they’ll be the same way with someone else,
and someone else will be the same way about you
and it goes on and on- 
this desperate need- 
and only once in a rare million do the same two people need each other.
That is why love is so difficult.
and yet that's why
              
                                      is so incredibly beautiful.
