This life is a beautiful war; (this blog is my personal journey, I post what I want when I want to, no judgment or deletions. my hope for you: inspiration, thoughts, creativity, insight, perspective, hope, and most of all that you learn something from my life that helps you to better your own.)

[tocherishlove]

I will love like I have never been hurt.

Each time I love in vain,

it’s because of the pain.

I’ve learned that love,

comes with a price,

whether you’ve been

naughty or nice.

I learned that love hurts, and that’s just the way it is.

But I will love

like I was never lost in you,

and, somewhere along the way,

I’ll find someone brand new.

He will love me,

in every way you can’t:

He will care

instead of try,

And help

instead of fix,

And speak

instead of smother,

And laugh

instead of joke,

And act

instead of advise,

And believe

instead of shy,

And heal

instead of bandage,

And fail

instead of falter,

And retry

instead of repeat,

And touch

instead of think,

And remember

instead of forget,

And yes

instead of sure,

And feel

instead of forgive,

And most of all

learn and

teach us

how to

LOVE

instead of being

ruled by the

precautions

taught by

HATE.

For every trait you have

there is an opposing one

existing in another man:

One who will never love me

the way you can;

One who will never make me

willingly feel helpless

and out of control

without any care

the way you can;

One who will never replace

the wonder found in

that old-fashioned

school boy who

turned into my

one and only

dream of a

man.

But at least the next guy

will love me just as

I am.

I need a little anti-you in my life right now,

and learn love from someone who is

kind hearted and funny who has

no strings attached;

a man who will

love me and

not care if

I am

hurt

or broken

or unloveable.

Less of you is just

what I need because

less of you means less of me

is ruled by you, and even though I’m

damaged goods I know I’m in better hands.

I am

freed from you

because you no

longer own my

soul.

I am

with soul

while you keep

my heart.

I am

mine while

mine is yours

to keep.

I

may not

be made of

a lot but

I am. I am. I am.

Valentine's Day

It's not being alone on Valentine's Day that sucks. Sure, you wish you had the perfect forever guy, but you can deal with that by having sex with the less perfect man, or being happy knowing God has your perfect guy waiting for you down the road.

What sucks is feeling unloved on Valentine's Day; being unhappy and feeling miserable because you're stuck at home alone. Binging on food, drinking, Facebook stalking, doing whatever helps you 'cope' with your miserable life.

But you have to have hope, and know it'll get better. You are strong and have survived thus far, so don't give up the fight. It'll be worth it some day.

Until then, here's to us! The ones who are alone, but really aren't the only ones feeling this way❤️

Love recognizes no barriers. It jumps hurdles, leaps fences, penetrates walls to arrive at its destination full of hope.

Some things never change. Disclaimer: this includes my innate ability to be a complete bitch to people who don't deserve it.

Created a new drinking game: every time my mom decides to yell at me for stupid and mundane things I take a shot. She's the only person I love enough to allow her to make me feel worthless.And the only family I have left.

Charleston

It absolutely devastating that people are still suffering for the color of their skin. It is such an empty and pointless form of hate. No matter what the color of someone's skin is they are still HUMAN. They have loved ones, a life, a heart. My heart and prayers go out to all the families and people effected by the shooting. No matter how much hate someone feels, killing others is never the answer.

[pre-party]

I want to be alone and I want people to notice me - both at the same time.

[wordsnquotes]

I am not to speak to you—I am to think of you when I sit alone, or wake at night alone, I am to wait—I do not doubt I am to meet you again, I am to see to it that I do not lose you.
