Now it’s just lingering, hanging on by a thread. I wonder when it will totally end? When will it break? When will it really be over?
I can’t say but I will be prepared and I’ll smile and laugh and cry—sometimes happy tears—often they’ll be sad but I won’t be sad long the sadness I’ll feel when it’s really over will be momentary. I’ll get...

Amel Larrieux’s cover album Lovely Standards is the perfect soundtrack to end the day i’ve had. i woke up this morning at 6-ish and arrived to work at 8:00am.
i enjoyed my day gallery sitting and adored every second of small talk with all the non buying, Art appreciators that came in and i look forward to doing it all again tomorrow. But for now, He’s away, the sun has finally...

Now that all of my questions have been answered…
i should finally be able to breathe. i know i don’t always make the best or smartest decisions—results of thinking with my heart, while my brain vacations—BUT at least i live. i take risks, and i give everyone, even those who don’t deserve it, the benefit of doubt. It takes a lot of courage to do the things...

01/07/2012- Dear Diary,
i think i’ve figured it out. Things fall apart. When you have no control, take in a very deep breath, exhale and let the shit go… and i’m ready, i’m so ready to not be worried, to not cry only sad tears, to not be concerned about someone who’s not concerned about me and to make myself happy. i’ve spent too much time fighting.
What the hell have i been...
