you know when you are in one of those moods where you feel like you have a feeling creeping up on you that is about to make you overwhelmed with regret and pain and you are about to start questioning everything and you have no idea why your brain and body think that you need to be feeling that way in this moment?
i just felt the creeping, but at the peak of going either way, when i could have...
documented (and being updated)
i have a theory that when you document your to-do lists, you are more likely to accomplish the goals, tasks, etc. on your list. i think very few people would disagree with that.

…for having too much love in your heart.
sometimes i feel flaky about relationships and that i am completely boy crazy. maybe i am, but i am, from now on, attributing those qualities to having too much love in my heart. some people have just enough love for one person. i just love so many people. i really do love so many things about different people that it is just so hard to choose what...

it’s nice when someone thinks you are the bee’s knees.
All stories are about wolves
Him: All stories are about wolves. All worth repeating, that is. Anything else is sentimental drivel.
Her: All of them?
Him: Sure. Think about it. There's escaping from the wolves, fighting the wolves, capturing the wolves, taming the wolves. Being thrown to the wolves, or throwing others to the wolves so the wolves will eat them instead of you. Running with the wolf pack. Turning into a wolf. Best of all, turning into the head wolf. No other decent stories exist.
- Margaret Atwood
no big deal. we can have them in every color.
jamie! we are getting all of those.
it wasn't a waste and i know that every time.
it is really easy to love crazy people, and people who aren’t good for you.
but it’s not real. it’s a fixation and it’s something to fix. it’s never real. it won’t be. you’ll just grow up and out of it. you’ll realize what a waste of time it was, trying to help those who refuse to help themselves.
what a waste you think it was.
it’s not....

I just ran a few of my favorite miles I have ever run.
I played songs that I knew would instill something in me, and I played them loudly. And I let my mind wander to all the places that I quarter off from every day thinking.
And I started running faster.
and faster.
and faster.
Until my legs almost fell off or I fell forward.
And then I held myself up and kept...
well that was fun while it lasted.
it’s just that one thing that can set you over, even when every other thing is practically perfect. you don’t want that thing to have such a bearing on your life. it’s disgusting, isn’t it? love, i mean. or lust, or human relations that you feel so strongly about that it begins and never stops weighing down on you in the most inconvenient of ways. it’s awful....
Life itself is the most wonderful fairytale.
