We dreamed together. We were unstoppable. One day I woke up and all his dreams, plans, aspirations, were gone; and so was I.

I’m not saying that we can’t be friends forever… I’m just saying that I can’t be your friend right now… Not when I’m trying to get better. Not when I’m trying to move on. Not when I’m trying to get over you…

-If anything, I’m trying to save our friendship.

-m.t.t.

Truth.

[coupleaabatteries]

It’s difficult for me to be ok with small talk. Like I’d rather shoot myself then talk small talk with you. it’s so shallow and means nothing- it’s just very…annoying

[coupleaabatteries]

Adventuring is a big part of my life. I don’t like to sit for too long, I want to GO and DO things. There’s something special about finding new places with new smells, new views, new people, and new food- and sometimes it’s an escape from my crazy world.

I'm not fearful. I'm not afraid. That would be putting a title on top of a name. I have a name but it isn't one of those... I'm chosen, I'm broken, and so extremely loved.

Life without you What does it look like What is the earth Without the sun in the sky

Why is it hard?

Saying goodbye is something nobody wants to do. Out of curiosity I looked up the definition. “Goodbye” is used to express good wishes when parting. Then why is it so hard? Why do I feel like saying goodbye is the worst part of the entire world when the definition of goodbyes are meant for wishing someone well? Are they supposed to be easy? But what the definition missed, and in some cases people missed is the love that goes along with it. The heartbreak that goes along with it, the tears, the misery of leaving people you love the most, and, fear. I’m afraid of being lonely. My flesh cries out to stay where I’m comfortable then life throws another “goodbye” into my hectic, beautiful mess, life. I can pretend like it doesn’t hurt. But will that really solve anything? Why are good-byes not good?

Goodbyes are scary because hellos aren’t promised

woah. This hit me deep.

[coupleaabatteries]

I turned my camera around to see if anything was wrong with it. The aftermath turned out pretty fine I guess

[coupleaabatteries]

Let's be real

This is my story:

You might see a girl beautiful as can be. Happy-go lucky-type. You might be right. But what you don’t see, is the things I hide. I’m not your perfect-photoshopped-tall glass of water kinda girl. Nope not me. I’m real. I’m real broken. I’m also mendable. I have believed lies about myself for most of my life, until now. Those lies stayed with me more than the truth did, honestly. The girl you saw, wasn’t the same girl I felt like I was.

I was told I was special, wonderful, beautiful, drop dead gorgeous, intelligent, that i’m going to be a great wife one day, I’m creative, I’m fun to be around.

I was also told, I wasn’t smart, I am going nowhere in life, I’m never going to be good enough for my parents, I’m never going to be worth loving, I’m never going to graduate high school, I’m never going to be worth teaching, I will never be organized, I can’t do anything on my own, my braces make my smile look weird, I’m stupid, I’m crazy, no one will ever want to marry me.

Guess what stuck with me? Yeah, you guessed it! All those negative things I was telling myself. It effected the way I made some decisions, it effected the way I lived my life! I knew I was priceless… But it was hard to believe that when I also believed those list of lies that I kept reciting to myself like it was some type of quiz.

You see, you can’t have both in the mix.

Tears were shed as I read this list out loud that I started believing since age seven. My wet, shaky hand took the pen, it was almost as if was handing it to my Father, letting go, and we started crossing out the lies, together, replacing them with the real, hard truth. An emotional experience, but it is something that will stick with me for a lifetime.

- I see broken, He sees whole.

I realized, I’m not the only one who feels this way. So here’s to all the girls out there who are a broken, beautiful, mess:

You are not alone. Forget perfect. Shed light on the darkness, on all the lies. You’re worth it. That’s the real truth!!

Repost this and remind someone… YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL MESS.

What a blessing you are in my life.

To think if I would have never met you, gosh, how different my life would be.

I wouldn't change any of the moments we have had together even if my life depended on it.

“Do you love her?” “Yes.” “How do you know?” “Because nothing makes sense without her.”

Favorite movie. Favorite quote.

There is a sense of adventure in every mans core. All you must do to bring it to life, is to face your fears and take a leap of faith. -FAITH RYAN

That quote though!! So good!!!!

[coupleaabatteries]

It's an action

I’m a girl who believes in love. There are people in this world that will tell you love isn’t real. I’m just a girl who believes love is the strongest, most powerful, meaningful emotion humans posses in their body. If we don’t have love, we have nothing. It brings people together. It heals broken heart strings. It bonds people together. But I’ve noticed sometimes we forget what it means. It isn’t just an emotion that keeps our heart beating, butterflies in our stomachs, lots of kisses, and happy tears in our eyes. It’s an action. “I promise to love you” you say, but the key is… you DO IT. You love that person forever. Love takes an effort. It is the most beautiful part about me, I believe. I have so much love in just one tiny finger of mine, for you. It’s an action. There are times I don’t love. That’s called hate and the wrong mindset. I rebuke it. If you, my darling, could no longer function properly, walk, or even hear me, I will love you with my whole heart. I will still give you those sparkling eyes that speak louder than any words ever could when I’m old and wrinkly. Why would I do that? Because love is an action not just those heart eyes you get when he/she dresses up fancy and smells like heaven in a bottle. Love is what sets us apart from the hate and everything that destroys good things in this world. Love has patience, love trusts, love preservers, love doesn’t get easily angered, love keeps no records of wrong, love never leaves, love doesn’t ignore you, love can’t be defeated. Love is unconditional. I have that in my heart. That means I am capable of amazing things and most importantly an amazing marriage. I’m capable of loving you. And I do. - That’s my story. Never forget where love comes from. Yeah, I’m “that” girl who believes in love because I believe in the God who created it.
