wait

“ Wait for the person who pursues you, the one who will make an ordinary moment seem magical, the kind of person who brings out the best in you and makes you want to be a better person; wait for the person who will be your best friend, the only person who will drop everything to be with you at any time no matter what the circumstances, for the person who makes you smile like no one else and when they smile you know they need you. Wait for the person who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats and a tee shirt, but appreciates it when you get dressed up for them. And most of all, wait for the person who will put you up at the center of their universe, because that’s where you belong. “


Beautiful.

What a thought. 

A crush.

10.28.2011




Having a crush is one of our original human impulses – it is the feeling of seeing in another person characteristics that compliment your being so well that you feel impelled to join their life with yours if even for only a little while. It is a strong, passionate longing for a partnership with a person that has something you don’t have and could never possess. It is a magnetic desire for an image of beauty fetched from youth. It is a flood of emotion so mentally overwhelming that it affects your physical being. Having a crush makes me feel young and alive. It takes me over in the most amazing way.

an endless beat

There comes a time in every day when my world gets quiet and the only thing left is my heart.
Thoughts clear.
An endless beat.
And for that I'm so very thankful.

The Parachute Diaries

Soooo, I have been thinking about changing my blog name for a while now! I love my original title, it was after all, where this whole blog started, but I feel that I have outgrown it.

So, The Parachute Diaries...

I have loved the idea of my life and myself being brought down to earth, every so often by parachute. I have visualized this many times during my most frantic weeks. During days that I feel like I am falling too fast, without a safety net, not know how I will ever be able to land on my feet. But if I can just see myself being brought down slowly, parachuted through my messes, safely grounded, it all seems to pass by a little more smoothly.  So here I am. Same blog. Same me. New name. We all need a little make over once and a while.

My question to all of you little lovlies is, have you ever changed your blog name? How has it effected your blog? And more than just the name, have you changed the entire web address? I plan to after a few days, I just wanted to see if any one ran into any problems while doing so. Did you lose any readership? Are there any tips you might have? Any problems you have encountered? Id love any feedback! Any thoughts on the new name? Or suggestions at all? Thanks!

time.

breathings...

"Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart"
-Wordsworth

I am too full today. 
All I can do is put pen to paper and let some of it out. 
I simply cannot stop writing.

Make it.

10.25.2011


This is my morning today. However, Im finding it hard to get to the laughing point yet. 

 I want to extract every possible second from this day. I need it to last. To linger. I need it to take me over. But how can I push through and enjoy this day knowing tomorrow will undoubtedly knock every breath out of me?

Choose your corner.

Every single day.

10.20.2011

Isn't it incredible how you never know what kind of an impact someone may make on your life? How someone you randomly bump into could severely change your entire future. Or how words you utter regularly could uproot some one else's being on any given day. Right now you may walk out the door and meet your soul mate, you just never know. That's why I find life is so alluring and exciting. Every single day is an adventure.
Do you agree?

explode.

10.19.2011


How can one person
 feel so much
 all at once? 
Im honestly in awe
 that I do not explode
 on a daily basis. 

Dream space.

What a dream. 
I would arrange it differently, but this space is ideal.
One day.

Walks alone

Slip

10.14.2011

Sometimes I just let myself slip. Take it in while it lasts. Calling it what I want to. Or rather what I need to. Waiting to pick up the pieces. Knowing nothing can completely shatter me. Dropping my walls if even for a moment. Giving myself the allowance to feel it. Just a little bit. Before it will be ripped away. Letting myself slip. So I can pick myself up again.

Strange pull

This is how I try to live my everyday. 
& it has yet to let me down.

“But it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I’m seeing it all at once and it’s too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that’s about to burst. And then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like rain and I can’t feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life.” — American Beauty
