a work in progress.



i’m looking to post whatever inspires me, whether it is directly related to love, or something indirect that gives me the same short of breath feeling that love does (and i’m talking about all love - romantic, sisterly, brotherly, friendships - All love). 

dedicated to positivity

dedicated to taking away some of the jaded associations with love

dedicated to changing a culture from within the culture

and of course, dedicated to the one i love

i want to find all of the the good stories, the great stories, all of the stories that people are proud to share. let’s spread it around a little bit people.

i just need to write this to remind myself that it’s all around us and that’s why it’s easy to overlook.

this will always be a work in progress.

&lt;blockquote&gt;There is a couple sitting side by side on a park bench, reading. These are the sort of moments I miss most in my own life. Reading in bed together. Lying in grass, half-napping under a blanket of sunlight. Writing for someone and saying, &lt;i&gt;“This is for you.”&lt;/i&gt; Or, even better, saying &lt;i&gt;“Thank you,” &lt;/i&gt;not in response to a word or action, but saying it because it is necessary. Thank you for existing. Thank you for sharing your life with me. Thank you for letting me share mine. Thank you for making everything seem better. Thank you for making me strive to be a better person. Thank you for not giving up.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I like “thank you for loving me the very best you can.” It feels good to hear that, and it feels even better when you get to say it.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou.tumblr.com/post/47508439</link><guid>http://iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou.tumblr.com/post/47508439</guid><pubDate>Tue, 26 Aug 2008 16:05:45 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>meltinyourmouth:marjchun:unicornology:exactly. someone gets...</title><description>&lt;img src="http://media.tumblr.com/ym1pFpmr8ch57qa1F549sZ8L_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://meltinyourmouth.tumblr.com/post/46066084/marjchun-unicornology-exactly-someone-gets"&gt;meltinyourmouth&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;a href="http://marjchun.tumblr.com/post/46014717/unicornology-exactly-someone-gets-it"&gt;marjchun&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;a href="http://unicornology.tumblr.com/post/45511176/exactly-someone-gets-it-morningbell-align"&gt;unicornology&lt;/a&gt;:exactly. someone gets it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Funny - such a simple statement - and one would probably assume it’s about love, but you don’t know to what feeling the writer is referring. It could be applied to the positive or the negative  and I like that lack of specific diretion.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My first thought (of course) was about love. Why is this always so hard to communicate? And why does that last sliver of doubt always seem exist? I can forget about that doubt - sometimes for months at a time - but then I remember. Sometimes when I am the most happy with you! I think it might be because I am so happy, and I love that feeling, and I never want it to go away. That’s when the doubt comes back. But then I forget it again for a while.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou.tumblr.com/post/44235530</link><guid>http://iloveyouiloveyouiloveyou.tumblr.com/post/44235530</guid><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jul 2008 13:39:09 -0400</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
