The Beatles - Blackbird

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird fly, blackbird fly
Into the light of the dark black night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these broken wings and learn to fly
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise
You were only waiting for this moment to arise


Learning that I need to keep my mouth shut and ears open. Better all around.

faith love

I've grown up having a difficult time with religion.
I've never questioned the fact that there is a God.
I question flaws that come with it. Human interpretation.
I've come to realize that it doesn't really matter at all.
The life I live reveals my faith.
Not the church I go to.
Not the religion I proclaim.
Not others judgement of my decisions.
Not others proclamation of sin.
Not your bible.
I see God as representation of goodness.
You say yin and yang. Karma. Allah. Yahweh. Buddha.Christian. Jew. Doesn't matter.
I want to live well.
I want to create goodness.
Living by no one person's interpretation of a bible, created by man, is going to get me there.

I am happy.
I am whole.
I am finally confident.


God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you


On my own I’m only
Half of what I could be
I can’t do without you
We are stitched together
And what love has tethered
I pray we never undo


God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you, gave me you
Gave me you

on my sleeve

No one can sing it like adele but I dig it.

I realize how lucky I am.
I look around and do not feel like I could ask for more.
So frustrated with ignorance of someone who doesn't stop and look at the life they were given. The people they are blessed to know.
There is this quote about if you realized how little of time everyone thought about you that you wouldn't give a damn. Just meaning that people are so wrapped up in their own problems. Its not an intention to not take you into account but that the fact is that people have their own issues. So stop feeling sorry for yourself. Look around with clear eyes and think about someone other than yourself. I hate to see hurt. Especially with someone I love so much.

Countdown to Colorado. So excited for things to come.

I stroke her lightly, memorizing her body. I want her to melt into me, like butter on toast. I want to absorb her and walk around for the rest of my days with her encased in my skin. I lie motionless, savoring the feeling of her body against mine. I'm afraid to breathe in case I break the spell."
— Sara Gruen (Water for Elephants)
I am in the middle of this book and when I read this I felt it, I've been there. Not wanting to move because it's one of the happiest times you've ever felt. Holding onto that moment in time and wanting it to be endless. Sinking in like butter on toast.

i would wonder why birds stayed in the same place when they could fly anywhere in the world, then i asked myself the same question.

Never Felt So Real. Never Felt so RIght

It's not just a kiss.
It's my hand in yours.
It's a shot that I know we are right.
It's smiling with you in the dark.
It's being lucky I found you.
It's talking late in the night.
It's racing home to be with you.
It's letting my hair down.
It's singing in the car with the windows down.
It's late night ice cream.
It's smiles that are worth more than a dozen roses.
It's my head on your chest.
I know this is it.
