With You.


It is as if everything in my life has led up to this moment. This feeling that I can do anything. Be anything I want to be. 


Each set back, each major flaw has a purpose. And I see it all so clearly now.  

 Every single lesson has brought me to this place I am at, with you. 

 Every little piece of my puzzle has come together in this life's plan and all my doubts have vanished. 

 I lay with you and it all makes sense. I am complete. I am whole. 
It took every winding road and every sleepless night. Every tear that fell and ALL those bad dates. All the feelings of foolishness I experienced from putting myself out there. All the heartbreak and the moments of pain.  

 Every piece of confusion and then, nights of wondering if I was going to be ok.  

 First, I found myself, and then I found you. All those struggles and growing into my own self. Learning and loving myself. 

 This journey hasn't been simple, but it has been worth it. In this moment I am at peace. I feel at ease. I am grateful.  

 "What screws us up the most is how we think it's going to look." Life in itself is messy, and chaotic. But once I let go of the ideals of what I thought it was going to look like, It turned out worlds better than I could ever imagine.  


I am grateful for you everyday. And I can only imagine our life together. 

 I would have it no other way. 

Dedicated to: My fiancé Amy

Freedom is Priceless.

There was a time in my life where all that mattered was appearance. I never missed a day in the gym, spent hours on tanning, curling, applying. Everything to be perfect. All external. My worth, my self-esteem, and even my income was based on how I looked. Nothing else mattered. I spent my time in fancy bars and restaurants with fancy people eating stupid tiny dishes. I was living part time in Vegas and partying on rooftops with celebrities and all the most glamorous people. Feeling desired and fabulous. But, deep down. Dark. Hungry. Unfulfilled. Depressed. Hardened. Worthless. Thankfully, these things have changed drastically. Due to a change of profession, a desire to get back in school and a large amount of emotional growth, my priorities have shifted. All stemming from a difficult time where I realized that the life I was living was pointless, and detrimental. So I made the decision to change everything. Through a lot of uncomfortable times and struggling to find myself, make...

Only Love Can Drive Out Hate

Image
At times I wonder why I am so sensitive and even frustrated to the world at large. What makes me feel these moments of hostility throughout my day to day life? And then I sit down to have a nice coffee at a café to enjoy a mid-day recharge. As I sit overhearing (eavesdropping?) the table next to me spout hateful words about an unknowing passerby. I sit, baffled at their arrogance and mean spirited nature. Then, I find myself becoming angry and hateful at them for their words. How can they be so mean? Why can’t they just be more compassionate? But, I realize my thinking only continues the hate. My own lack of acceptance of their ignorance is just as bad as their hate. One does not trump the other in justification. These energies and situations happen every day. We all feel entitled to one behavior or another. These entitlements continue to affect the world in different ways. Only when we stop, accept our faults and decide to make a change in our behavior for the greater good, do we...

In The End.

Image
In the End. 11.15.15 Her voice trembles, her fear speaks. She asks herself, is it me? Yearning for love, seeking for truth, Only she finds pain, With each chance she took. Breathing life in, Trusting its beauty. She holds on to the hope, She walks through believing. Beating her down, making her question her existence, She never lets go, She keeps going with persistence. Each let down is in preparation, for that love you seek, don’t give up, don’t lose hope, despite when things are bleak. You deserve love, You will find passion. It will all make sense, In the end.
