ALICIA IS MY NAME.

writing is my game. wine is my poison. smiling is my favorite. the world is my oyster. traveling is my passion. this tumblr is my secret. ask me anything. "I saw that my life was a vast glowing empty page and I could do anything I wanted." -Jack Kerouac

Oh my God, what if you wake up some day, and you’re 65, or 75, and you never got your memoir or novel written; or you didn’t go swimming in warm pools and oceans all those years because your thighs were jiggly and you had a nice big comfortable tummy; or you were just so strung out on perfectionism and people-pleasing that you forgot to have a big juicy creative life, of imagination and radical silliness and staring off into space like when you were a kid? It’s going to break your heart. Don’t let this happen.

We were talking about what other people think of you. You’ve done some really big things, At some point, surely you must have been going “what if all of this falls apart”. Oh yes, Oh yes, please don’t misunderstand, I’m certainly not in a super confident place all the time. And rarely do I finish something and say like “I nailed it”.
