The end of an era...adieu!
This tumblr symbolizes an era in my life that has since come to an end; hence why the posting has ceased. I am in a completely differently place and no longer can relate to much of what’s written here but this WAS a chronicle of my hopes, my dreams, my loves, and my wishes during this time; a time where I self-sabotaged on an almost daily basis, a time when I felt as if the light at the end...

In retrospect....
As it is customary for me, I love to take the last hours of 2008 to reflect on all that has transpired during the course of the year. And what a year it’s been!
~2007 was a year of emotional upheaval. I spent the entire year mending a broken heart, only to realize that the demise of this relationship was one of the best things that could have ever happened to me. I now understand with the...

“So fail. Be bad at things. Be embarrassed. Be afraid. Be vulnerable. Go out on a limb or two or twelve and you will fall and it’ll hurt..but the harder you fall, the farther you will rise. The louder you fall, the clearer your future becomes. Failure is a gift, welcome it. There are people who spend their whole lives wondering how they became the people...

I think it is a person’s imperfections that make them so attractive. I would never want to spend my time around people who acted flawless, because I would know that it was only that; an act. Give me the people with some scars. Give me the ones with baggage and skeletons and secrets. Give me those who aren’t ashamed to admit that they are human. A person with no cracks...

Do you ever just feel blank? It’s a terrible way to feel, just floating along with no direction. You don’t know how you are supposed to feel, or even how you would want to feel. It’s a cloud that darkens everything and leaves you gasping for air. You try to occupy your mind with art and books and writing and friends, but nothing seems to contain the same excitement that...
