I just thought of this.

(California 2007)




Live and Love have one letter difference
I don't believe that's a coincidence.
Back when you were young
you didn't know how to love.
Every time I see what I could have done
I regret not learning how to live and love.

Thanksgiving again.

That time of year when every child is remembering their manners again, on their best behavior. When people seem happier and wholesome. I don't have a lot of time to write. My mother, sister and I have a party to prepare for. Happy Thanksgiving, one more time.

Ser/Estar

People become profound, more defined over the years. I think people change all the time, if we didn't change we wouldn't learn. Not only physically, but mentally. I know I am not the same person I was two years ago, let alone two months ago. We learn from every experience. We are a collaboration of all we have ever known. Let it be genetic, or environmental, ser or estar.

The secret life of bees.

I love this movie. It's so great.



Here are some of my favorite quotes;

People who think dying is the worst thing don't know a thing about life.

Sometimes not feeling is the only way you can survive.

Bee yard etiquette: ... the world is really one big bee yard, and the same rules work fine in both places:
Don't be afraid, as no life-loving bee wants to sting you. Still, don't be an idiot; wear long sleeves and long pants.
Don't swat. Don't even think about swatting. If you feel angry, whistle. Anger agitates,
while whistling melts a bee's temper. Act like you know what you're doing, even if you don't.
Above all, send the bees love. Every little thing wants to be loved.

... some things don't matter much. Like the color of a house. How big is that in the overall scheme of life?
But lifting a person's heart--now, that matters. The whole problem with people is ... they know what matters,
but they don't choose it... The hardest thing on earth is choosing what matters.

Time

Time presses on
when an act of dissatisfaction occurs,
time presses on.
Left out of step,
a mind becomes hazy
and something deemed important
becomes increasingly insignificant,
a considerable amount of ourselves is lost,
depleted from the standard,
a sacrifice unintended.
And when the time to distinguish
what has fallen occurs,
we obtain more than what was surrendered
and time presses on.

Paris

This summer I took a trip to Paris. That is where I took some of the best photographs I have ever taken. Soon, I will be starting a photography blog, thanks to some very good advice. For now, I hope you enjoy. (Click pictures to enlarge) You are also welcome to visit my Flikr account. http://www.flickr.com/photos/38317261@N08/

Remember to 'give credit where credit is due'. Thank you.

Love

Love is not a mathamatical equation,
you cannot take the square root
you cannot factor it
there is no formula for love
love isn't expressed in writing
you can't put it into a calculator
this is because there is no answer for love
and love most definitely is not the problem.

Below is..

This is how I want to feel.

That split-second
where you are suspended
in mid-air
above everything you've ever known.
Whatever has brought you down,
below you.
Anything that has made you feel that certain way,
gone.
All control is lost and there's nothing, absolutely nothing
between you and the freedom you hold within.

Hey, soul sister.

All of these

No?

So I said I wanted to take pictures, this is what came of that.

Tell me what you think.

This is how I feel at this exact moment.

I like birds

I've been looking at lots of pictures lately and the ones of birds seem to stick out to me for some reason. I Love that they can fly, I've always wanted to be able to. I think that would be the coolest thing in the world. I think I'm going to get my pilots license one day. As for now, enjoy the sky and watch the birds.




(I took this one)

I need to stop

but I can't.

You have inspired me, I am dedicating this blog post to you. You're kind of great. I have been looking at your flick account for hours. In the slightest chance you see this I just want to say thank you, from a blogger to a blogger.

There is only one cure.

I have been itching to do something unconventional. Something crazy, run away for a couple days, sleep outside, I have been itching to take photographs. I want to do something fun, and I don't mean the fair, which I have yet to go to this year. I'm talking about taking a hike, going to the lake. Something exciting, in-the moment..

Spontaneous.

Off topic.

So I usually post some crap title and ramble on and on about useless things. Sometimes I'll post a picture or a few and sometimes juuuuuust sometimes, I actually write something meaningful. Worthwhile. It's like going to some discount store and searching the racks or horribly worn clothes and then you come across a beautiful little number that has your name on it, it's your size and everything. (This happened to me recently and I think I'm going to tell you about it.) So here is the story, (I know I'm getting side tracked but it's what I do best so I might as well embrace it) I was going to Annie's Attic With my mother, it's a store for used clothes, mostly for older folks but I decided to go anyway. I was scanning the racks when a little white tag caught my eye. Diane Von Furstenberg. It was a beautiful little crop jacket, Black with gold embroidery. Absolutely stunning. It was a size 2, Perfect. The thing retails for I'd say, two hundred, if not more. I wanted this thing bad. So I showed my mom how great it was and she liked it as well. The price: seventy. A tiny bit steep for a jacket but well worth it. I decided I would wait, save up the money by mowing the lawn. At twenty dollars a week I'd have enough in four short weeks. So I waited for the grass to grow, cut it, and waited again. Finally when I finally had eighty dollars in my pocket, I told my mom to take me to annies half expecting the jacket to be gone, but after a quick search, there it was. The thing is everything in life isn't that easy. I of course, had to get cold feet. I had eighty dollars in my pocket ready to go to this itty bitty jacket that I fell in love with but, hey, the money could go to my car or something right? So I decided I would wait it out again. Bad Idea. My mom went in just one week later, and guess what was missing? Yeahp. It was gone. I really wish I would have gotten it the first time. Well this was longer than intended and I'm fairly certain no one has read this far. If you have comment so I can reward you for being so persistent.

What I wanttt.

I really wish more people would comment, even if you hate what I write.
It would be nice to know at least someone is reading what I write. I mean, I do it mostly for myself, but every now and then it's good to get an opinion. Anyway, say what you want, I'd love to hear it.
Going to post something new very shortly quite possibly.

Oh, and remember to love!
:D

Ready

The inspiration is pouring out of me. It's like a dam with a large leak, and it's about to burst. I have to write in my journal or I'm going to forget everything I need so much to remember. Here are a few pictures I've picked up here and there. Enjoy.





If you want to sing out, sing out and if you want to be free, be free.

I heard these lyrics and I changed them up a little..

There's a hole in my heart and it's just your size, I guess everything is just going to have to be alright.


I took this picture a while ago, but I really love it, I hope you do too.

I have this crazy Idea.

I watched Grease again the other day, which I might point out, is the best musical ever. I don't necessarily like musicals but I absolutely love this movie. I think John Travolta was my first actor crush. It's so cheesy and everything, but I think that's what makes it so great. Grease 2 on the other hand, kind of disappointing. I love a good British accent here and there but it wasn't enough to fall in love with the movie.

Here's a little Travolta for you(:

Change

Inevitable
Grows, shrinks, fades and lightens.
The iridescence and saturation of it, fluttering
a hummingbird midst-flight.
A development of everything
and nothing.
A variation or refinement
of something you see in yourself,
possibly something you wish to see in the world.
A revision of something being written, spoken.
A dance with the audience of everyone
and no one.
A revolution of one thing, many things
or perhaps nothing.

The little things.

Everyone has been getting sick, this stupid swine shit going around. I really hope I don't get it! but at the same time I think people are making a bigger deal about it than it really is. Anyway, there has not been a lot going on, homework, showers, short dinners, and school. Yeahp, that's about it. Other than the little internet getaway ever once and a while that's what my life is. Oh, also, I found my perfect car, its a 72 Mercedes 250 in yellow with a blue interior, it's automatic and has less than 60k miles. I swear it's perfect. I'm really going to look into it.

Last but not least,here are a few pictures. I know you just love them:


Another little picture I fell in love with.



On a more meaningful note, this is something I think about a lot.



I'm kind of in love with this.


I took this. I'm not lying.

Hilarious.

Other than having to do homework life is pretty good right now. I found this video, or rather someone else did and they showed it to me. Now, I would like to share it with you.

A funny one.

Sometimes I like to refer back to this. Says a lot.




Beautiful.


This is how I see the world, or something like it.



This doesn't really require a caption. Kind of speaks for itself, no?





Cute? I thought so too.




I hope you find this as funny as I do.



I was on the computer a few days ago and the internet decided to be a pain in the you-know-what, so I decided to do something productive. This is what came of it. I hope you like it.
