Ian: I don’t believe in luck. I do believe we’ve known each other since forever, though.

Sofi: Really?

Ian: Yeah. You know how? When the big bang happened, all the atoms in the universe, they were all smashed together into one little dot that exploded outward. So my atoms and your atoms were certainly together then, and, who knows, probably smashed together several times in the last 13.7 billion years. So my atoms have known your atoms and they’ve always known your atoms. My atoms have always loved your atoms.

I don't know what to do with my limp hair much less my real life. I sit here and scroll through Tumblr and "like" or reblog these posts of beautiful people and wonderful ideas to improve my hair, my body, my outlook, my life for me to revisit but I never do. Maybe that "like" or reblog is supposed to trigger something in me to remember it and carry it? God knows I rarely come back and look at what I really posted or liked. Maybe I should. All I know is I am thankful. There are many days where I get down by the "grass is greener" thought and I have to jerk myself out of that moment and remind myself of the many times a day I am thankful for the life I have. I am thankful for all that I have been given. I may hate my limp hair, my small eyes, my splotchy skin, my sky-high debt, my inability to remember birthdays and anniversaries, my inability to say thank you (a sick case of feeling like people don't want to hear from me), my quiet nature in groups, my crazy tug-of-war family dynamic but I have to shake myself back to the core and remind myself that I am blessed. I kind of hate that saying...maybe it doesn't mean the same to you but I grew up in a very conservative family. Saying I am blessed feels so... "boxed-in Christian". I should not regard it with so much contempt but I do. When I say I am blessed I am not thanking a god, I am thanking the universe for being good to me (maybe you view them one in the same?). I am thankful for giving me the ability to recognize what was put in my life to teach me, the people that were put in my life to be role models, the friends I was lucky enough to cross paths with that have been support and inspiration, my work ethic that was birthed from many factors in my life, the unconditional support from family, friends and the unknown...the many, many things I have no control over but have been placed in my path and allowed me to grow and flourish. Today was a very simple day but somehow more challenging than the most complicated days. These type of days press at me in ways I cannot explain. Here we are at the end of one of these seemingly simple, yet trying days and I've finally come to a place of peace. No, I am not over those negative aspects of the day in the sense that they are just "poof" gone from my mind but rather I am okay with their negative presence because no matter how negative, I am still very blessed and still very thankful for the life the universe has given me. And because of the negative, I can be much more thankful for the wonderful things I have been "blessed" with...

If you look at the fact that you have a roof over your head, food to eat, that you are young and beautiful and live in a peaceful land, then no, you have nothing to be sad about. But the fact is, we are not only a physical body, we have souls too, and sometimes our souls get sick. If you break a leg you don’t just say ‘I have no reason to have a broken leg’ and ignore it; you seek help. It’s the same when your soul gets hurt. Don’t apologize for being sad.
