Lesson Learned

Message to self - be patient. 

Just because someone is keeping something from you doesn’t mean that they don’t trust you; it just means they aren’t ready to share yet. Deep breaths. Be ready to listen if they’re ready to talk, but don’t push them. 

Not everybody is a talker.

At least this will all make a good story someday.

I babysat three different families for a total of 22 hours this weekend and all I can say is I am not ready for full time parenthood cause dang I’m exhausted.

I know I was the one who told you to do it, but I think I underestimated how much it would sting to see you follow through.

February 2, 2006. February 2, 2015. Nine years.

It kind of blows my mind to think that baby isn't even a baby anymore. 

Some things change, but others don't. I won't forget the things you taught me. 

[aprilmayjunejul]

I want you to know one thing. You know how this is: if I look at the crystal moon, at the red branch of the slow autumn at my window, if I touch near the fire the impalpable ash or the wrinkled body of the log, everything carries me to you, as if if everything that exists, aromas, light, metals, were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that wait for me. Well, now, if little by little you stop loving me I shall stop loving you little by little. If suddenly you forget me do not look for me for I shall already have forgotten you If you think it long and mad, the wind of banners that passes through my life, and you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where I have roots, remember that on that day, at that hour, I shall lift my arms and my roots will set off to seek another land. But if each day, each hour, you feel that you are destined for me with implacable sweetness, if each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me, ah my love, ah my own, in me all that fire is repeated, in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten, my love feeds on your love, beloved, and as long as you live it will be in you arms without leaving mine.

New Year's Resolution 2015

I know I’m already 17 days late, but here it is.

I will work on learning to take advice and criticism with grace.

My knee jerk reaction is to always dismiss whoever is trying to help me and I would like to change that.

talk about perspective. shit.

Fucking hell.

I remember the first time I saw a map of Africa to scale. My jaw dropped.

[turntables-goldcables]

And I’m wondering how a continent so big can be so conveniently left out of our world history text books. A class on Africa isn’t a requirement for Anthro majors at my school. YOU CAN HAVE A MAJOR ON THE STUDY OF HUMANS AND COMPLETELY LEAVE OUT THIS WHOLE ASS CONTINENT.

[somethingglowing]

Well goddamn

[rolonda]

Africa, the fucking continent.

what happens now? the long-awaited answer

Deep breaths. And pray that I hold on to this realization.

Perish Like the Word - Blair Brennan P.S. There are some theories that the word is Chaldean in origin - abbada ke dabra - which means “perish like the word” P.P.S. Apparently in ancient Rome, writing it in this shape was thought to drive out sickness, which I think is super neat

[aprilmayjunejul]

Speak of me as I am. Nothing extenuate, Nor set down aught in malice. Then must you speak Of one that loved not wisely, but too well. Of one not easily jealous, but being wrought, Perplexed in the extreme.
