1 a.m. honesty.

You're a great man. Way too patient, forgiving, caring. Way too nice for me. You work hard and always aim to make an impossible person like me happy. This is not how I use to picture love. This is not what I thought love would be for me. I'm super hard on myself and I expect everyone to be crucial just like me. And you are. You're simple and love simple.

I love you for everything you are, for being able to 'stand' me when I can't even 'stand' myself. Don't ever forget that. You have taught me how to love whether you may know it or not. You have taught me real love and its possibilities.

I worked hard, dreamth of it. Took my eyes off it, but not my mind. Looked at several others, at the end of the day, it came back into my sight.My stubborness is a mutha.

Word.

I can say that for 23, I have been through quite a life..a blessed life. I try my hardest to see the up side to everything and keep the complains to a minimum bc I know we need hard times to appreciate the good. I say all that to say, I never gave up on myself...I ask God for two things: strength & faith. I don't only praise the good, I thank him every day regardless of the outcome. Be blessed!

that's my biiiiitch...

"I got dreams of holding a 9mm to bob's killer, asking him why as my eyes fill up. These days I can't wake up with a dry pillow, gone but not forgotten homes I still feel ya. So, curse the day that birth the bastard who caused your church mass...reverse the crash, reverse the blast, & reverse the car, reverse the day and there you are, bob allah. Lord forgive him, we all have sinned but bob's a good dude please let him in..." - Jay-Z

Truthfully speaking relationships are a chore. Having to live your life with someone else is difficult. Consideration, respect, attention, compromise, understanding are easier written than done in a companionship. Its very easy to lose yourself and become self-less when you constantly put another person first. We must always remember that if I can't be happy, I cannot make anyone else happy and happiness starts within. A lot of people do not understand this and want to force a relationship for the sake of a picture, or the title. But a picture is only a picture and a title doesn't matter if their isn't depth to the story. We must have depth and identity of ourselves so we know what we are not and what is not acceptable.

Just thinking and writting.

logic VS emotion.

I always knew I was a logical thinker...but lately I see it more and more as I get older. I am convinced that I have a Type A personality so I have to deal with it.
I care more about work than my social life and I'd rather have a successful career than the "soccer mom" life. I have a very black and white answer to almost every question and am CONSTANTLY looking over my goals in my head. "when am i gonna finish this..what do i have to do to get here..no that's not enough time..i have to do this to get this..." talk about STRESS. this works perfect because I don't like being in want or need for anything.

This is not to say that i'm an emotion-less freak, I just am wired to think with my mind vs heart.

i know that it's wrong. i do, i do.

a friend once told me...

"There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

year number three.

So yesterday was me and my hunny's "three year anniversary". The reason why I put it in quotations is because although it's a great accomplishment we don't count the hours, days, weeks, months and years that we've been together. We just figured we might as well. So that possibly is not an accurate date, but we don't care. :-)

He has really showed me the dimensions I didn't know I had, and the possible connection two people can have. the word connection is a complete under statement. There are days when I just look at him and become overwhelmed with happiness that I can never explain. It amazes me how another being can make me feel more complete. A lot of people did not really believe i was in a relationship at first, because I definitely was/am not desperate to be in love...that is until I fell in love with Anthony.

Our story is not perfect, for we are human and when it's "real" it's not perfect. We definitely have had our downs but we always seem to bring it together and avoid permanent damage.

We were lying down in bed and he began to ask me all sorts of questions regarding when we first met. He asked me when did I know I had fallen in love. My response: "The first time I cried because of you, I knew I was in trouble, because I never cry in front of people." I asked him when he knew he was in love with me. His response: "On our date to Dave and Busters" (second one). He said: "That night I kept winning in every single game, I won you a bear, I kept winning. And I NEVER win at anything. That's how I knew you were special." <3

i love you!

Exhale.

I have always been a kinda humble person. Maybe because I don't like too much attention but mainly because I count my blessings. Today I got beside myself and did just that. It's an overwhelming feeling when we can stop for a second in a peaceful state and realize our beautiful surroundings. I mean really take it all in.

This morning I went for a long run at the trails and it was so beautiful and peaceful. Six-thirty in the morning, just got off of work and I felt like I could run for days. It was still dark out and the air was chilly. After jogging for two miles, I walked to a piece of concrete close to the pond and just stood there watching all of God's amazing creations. The grass, the trees, the birds, turtles, the water, the air, the sun. nature. I began to think about my blessings and became overwhelmed with emotion. Emotion from success, drive, opportunities, blessings, my life, everything. In this chaotic world where we deal with so much negativity, malice and irresponsibility there is also beauty. We have to every so often stop and exhale. And this morning I did. It felt great.

Takers.

Last night me and my main squeeze watched Takers at Silverado. The movie is okay, I guess. This, my friend, is an ode to the fine ass men who were in it. My favorite is the beautiful, Idris Elba. I absolutely love him. He is Sexy, with a capital 'S'. There is an amazing scene where he is getting out of his bed in some black briefs, omigod, the ladies screamed on that shot. x-)

Anywho, here are some shots from the okay movie with sexy men. BTW, I absolutely love the threads they wore.

Wise Words.

“Love,” said Phaedrus, “is the oldest of the gods, and one of the most powerful. It is that principle which turns ordinary young people into heroes. For the lover is ashamed to act the coward in the presence of his beloved. Give me an army made up of lovers, and I can conquer the world.”
