Think.


Anais Nin : And the day came when the risk it took to remain tight inside the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.

Live.


Laugh. Cry. Dance. Dream. Reflect. Imagine. Hope. Believe. Love. Live......Truly Live.

Bullet Proof Attitude.


"As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives." ~Henry David Thoreau

Isn't it good?

My Art.


Been feeling lately that I needed to bring a bit more art into my everyday.
My walls are filled with photos that tell stories of my family and I love that aspect of my home. And yet, I wanted to invite something else inside - a new spunk, a new gathering of life elements - something to make me smile each time I pass by.

Be who you wish to be.
Bullet proof positive attitude.
That's me.
All me.

{ME}


Twenty something expressionist.
What's an expressionist?
Someone who expresses their view and inner chaos/ experiences through various media
(including but not limited to the fine art of swearing).
I'm a little bit of everything and an all or nothing kinda gal.
Its either chocolate or its gum.
What exactly is toffee?
It's being greedy.

Do You Know?



DO YOU KNOW

Do you know?
Do you know?


Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know, do you know, do you know, do ya?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?


If birds flying south is a sign of changes
At least you can predict this every year
Love, you never know the minute it ends suddenly
I can’t get it to speak
Maybe if I knew all the things it took to save us
I could fix the pain that bleeds inside of me
Look in your eyes to see something about me
I’m standing on the edge and I don’t know what else to give.

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know, do you know, do you know, do ya?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?

How can I love you?
How can I love you?
How can I love you?
How can I love you?
If you just don’t talk to me, babe.

I flow through my act
There's a question: Is she needed?
And decide all the man I can ever be.
Looking at the last 3 years like I did
I could never see us ending like this.
[Do You Know (Ping Pong Song) lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]


(Do you know?)

Seeing your face no more on my pillow
Is a scene that’s never ever happened to me.

(Do you know?)

But after this episode I don’t see
You could never tell the next thing life could be

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know, do you know, do you know, do ya?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know, do you know, do you know, do ya?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?

(Do you know?)
(Do you know?)
(Do you know?)
(Do you know?)

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
Do you know, do you know, do you know, do ya?
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?

Do you know what it feels like loving someone that’s in a rush to throw you away?
(Do you know how it feels?)
Do you know what it feels like to be the last one to know the lock on the door has changed?
(Do you know how it feels?)

(Do you know? Do you know? Do you know? Do you?)
(Do you know? Do you know? Do you know? Do you?)

Tuesday Tidbits.


Is new and different always better?
Why are we always seeking to have something more stylish
(who are you allowing to define style anyway?),
different, trendier (trendy always gets boring quickly does it not?)?

"All change is not growth, as all movement is not forward." (e. glasgow)

Today.


Robert Francis Kennedy : It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.

Creating Yourself.


Creating yourself. Choices. Options. Possibilities.
The chance to take a different path, to change course, to re-evaluate, to learn. Been thinking about all that kind of stuff lately. How easy it is to get stuck in the same old same old patterns and rhythms. I think I need a little shock sometimes to get me back into the knowledge that I have options.

We always have a choice in how we respond. The only person we can control is ourselves. And this relates to everything.

I get to choose how react and respond. I get to choose to give myself a break and to give people a break. I get to choose how I create my life every single day.

Special Person.


They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love
them and an entire lifetime to forget them.


*If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.
*Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.
*Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.
*Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship that's not meant to be.
*Slower is better.
*Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.
*If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no, you
can't "be friends". A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.
*Don't settle.
*If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.
*Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.
*The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
*Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women. He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?
*Always have your own set of friends separate from his.
*Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you.
*If something bothers you, speak up.
*Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.
*You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from within.
*Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are... even if he has more education or in a better job.
*Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man,nothing more nothing less.
*Never let a man define who you are.
*Never borrow someone else's man. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.
*A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.
*All men are NOT dogs.
*You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is two way street.
*You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage... deal with
your issues before pursuing a new relationship.
*You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you... a relationship consists of two WHOLE
individuals... look for someone complimentary...not supplementary.
*Dating is fun... even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.
*Make him miss you sometimes... when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily
available to him - he takes it for granted.
*Never move into his mother's house.
*Never co-sign for a man.
*Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need.
*Keep him in your radar but get to know others.

Smiles.



I like happiness. I can be and do anything I wish.

I love the feeling I get when

I listen to pretty music on my ipod pink nano ...
the feeling of laying in fields of lightning bugs on warm nights...
the feeling of being at the top of the ferris wheel at night when the guy below stops it and all you hear is children laughing and the smell of cotton candy...
the feeling of everything about spring and fall...
the feeling I get when I stare out into the ocean or when I listen to the waves crashing up on the beach on peaceful nights...
the feeling of going somewhere you've never been before and not knowing what to expect...
the feeling of meeting people you feel like you've known forever...
the feeling i get when i just created something that's never been created before...
the feeling of meeting genuine people who will admit to being crazy yet somehow provide you with a sense of sanity...
the feeling of taking pictures in you're mind so just in case, when you die, someone will have made you your photo album...
the feeling of passion for anything in life...
the feeling of changing someones life...


The ability to see the world through the eyes of others is a grand ability to have. You will suddenly find you are able to understand the things you've never understood before. Simple as that.

I am constantly evolving.

We Takin' Over.

Movin' On.


So I will be leaving my current job! I hope they know that this has nothing to do with them.
It's personal, myself and I.We got some straightening out to do.

But I've still gotta get a move on with my life and it's time to be a big girl now and big girls don't cry. You see the path that I was walking, I would have never went anywhere. So now I must go alone on my own path. I must take the baby steps till I'm full grown. Fairy tales don't always have a happy ending, do they?
And I forsee the dark ahead if I stay where I was!

I need to be with myself in center, clarity, peace, serenity
