An Artist.

  "No one will ever love you like an artist." (*That could have been us by K.P.K)

 As we walk down the subway line, the graffiti passes by you.

   "I'm guessing a lot of men hurt knowing no one will love them like you."

   "I never been in love." Her eyes looking up to the words as her fingertips rub across the lettering. "So the only thing they can remember me by is my pretty words... I say a lot of pretty words. Pretty thoughts."

   "Do you not mean what you say with all those pretty words?' 

   "I do. But I want someone who will accept my non- pretty words. The Ex- Lover I hit. How intoxicated I would get to just forget. The lines, the pretty lines. Those where my favorite." 

   "Lines?"

A sly smile pulls at the end of her lip.

   "Cocaine."

Growing Up.

             
 
   I've gotten to the point where I feel like I'm not sure where I'm going with my life.

   I have all these plans, but I can't bring myself to really dive into my work. Lately, I've been feeling more lost than ever, & I don't think I have figured out what actually makes me who I am. What makes me truly happy.

   Is my shyness the reason why I can't be myself around people? It's either I am too immature one second or to serious with people. There is no in-between. Majority of the time I am the one who gets in peoples nerves, but these are the same people I am being patience with when they act like a pan has fallen on their head. I keep hoping they would have the patience with me as I have with them.     
    They aren't perfect, and neither am I. But I'm at 

a point where I am scared of being myself around people because they always have a remark to say about my behavior. 

    I want to be free and the only person holding me back is myself. I'm so use to the solitude and imagination I live in my head everyday that I can barley hold a conversation with an other human being. 

    What person will I be looking back to when I'm sixty years old? & why is it that everyone that talks about trying to find themselves in their twenties are also the ones who don't understand the way you are growing up? 

Moving On From A Heartbreak

   How do you deal with a Heartbreak?

   Everyone goes through them but not everyone deals with it. I seen how girls hide what they feel and are in a new relationship within a week or so, only because they don't want to feel the pain there ex made them feel.

   Heartbreak takes a really emotional hit on you even if people think you are exaggerating, no one should underestimate the pain of someones broken heart. When you really like someone and you realize how they let you down...

   Don't be afraid to wallow for awhile. Let yourself feel how hurt you are because it will come out eventually, it can eat you up if you don't let yourself feel your emotions.

   Remember after you feel what you feel start doing more activities for yourself. Reminded yourself life will move on, so start taking care of yourself. Do things you enjoy or start doing something you never done before like taking a walk in the mornings.
   Going outside and feeling the cool breeze helped me clear my mind when I was hurt and I know it can help many people connecting more with nature.



   I wrote this post back in March 2015, and I never got the chance to post it. So here it is. It may not be finished but I don't remember the thought that was running through my mind when I wrote this, and I don't want to add any more to it because who knows where it was going to end. Instead I'll probably re-write this in a different post & I'm setting this here for memories. I hope you enjoy :)

My Love For Books

  My love for books didn't start until my last year of middle school. I have to thank my sister for that. Since I was a little kid she would always buy me books. At the time I never knew why, but if it wasn't for her I would never have this fascination about them.  Thinking about it I don't know how I would be able to get through life without books. Yes I am a crazy bookworm. I love getting new books, the way they feel and this warm smell that makes me feel like home. I am very odd when it comes to books. I never really meet anyone with my crazy love for books which is why I decided to start writing about them here. To talk about books and really express how they change me in a good way.

I enjoy the fact that with each book I read I get so into a character, I feel like I am living a different life. And you can, with each book you read, you go through a different life. The Characters life. 
Majority of the books I read are old classical stories, here and there I do push myself to read new releases. I will be posting reviews on my blog. Depending on how much time I have on my hands to read  I am currently on book #4.

XOXO,

Never Allow Yourself To Be Treated As An Option...

    I want women to start feeling comfortable with themselves, to not expect to be anyones second option. Some people get into relationships because they are afraid to be alone and that is not healthy for anyone.

    Do not listen to anyone who says you should lower your standards for a man or women. 

   You will realize what you needed was better than what you wanted.

    One day you might meet someone who you absolutely love being around but as time goes by, he/she, keeps you on a string. They don't want to really commit to a relationship but don't want to lose you. You need to know your worth. You don't deserve to be treated as an option ever. Its okay to want more because someone who truly cares for you will listen to what you have to say.

    Personally, I was in a relationship where even when I was his girlfriend he treated someone else more like his girlfriend. I couldn't stand by that, not even after I explained that I wasn't comfortable how close he was with her. He never tried to help fix things. So I left. It wasn't easy but it was years before I had the strength to leave. That was my fault for not leaving sooner.

    No man or women should be on the side. It either one at a time or neither. People should respect one another. In this society things are getting tougher but if we don't start changing it ourselves no on will. 

    I don't want to be someones option and that was something I learned the hard way. Respect. Loyalty. Faithful. These things are the ones that matter, along with many more. But it is my top three. Always look for those three things because you are the one who will be in the relationship. No one else should be in between.  

                                                                                        XOXO,

How Young Is Too Young To Love?

   You can be a parent talking about love to your children, a young teen talking about love with your friends, or you can be on your own wondering "Am I too young to be in love?"

   But to know if you really are in love with someone, Do you know what love is? Love is a beautiful if its the real thing. Beware not to confuse infatuation with love. To be in love with someone and be loved back can make you feel like your living in a world of enchantment. Your relationship may not always be great and have moments when you just need your space for a while, but you both know the love you share is still there.

   I can only say my opinion because I wasn't gifted on knowing other peoples thoughts. I believe that you are never to young to love. Personally, I have seen it with my family. My brother fell in love when he was fourteen and married when he was sixteen. To this day they are still happily married and you can see the love they have for each other through their eyes.

   Age shouldn't matter, all I can say is only you know when you are in love. No amount of articles can tell you weather you are in love. It is something you feel in your heart and completes your soul. You don't think you are in love, you know you are in love.

   When you say "I Love You" part of your soul goes to your partner.

   To love someone else you have to love yourself. Because then you won't be able to know how to give your heart to someone when you can't have it for your own. Never be afraid of love. Its a wonderful feeling. Don't let others say you don't know what love is, because they aren't you. They cannot feel what you feel inside.            

                                                                                                         May your day be lovely,
                                                                                                                                      XOXOXO
