I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me. Love is knowing all about someone and still wanting to be with them more than any other person. Love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you may be ashamed of. Love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak in the knees when they walk in a room and smile at you.

I love that feeling. You know, the one you get when you take a deep breath and suddenly everything feels like it's going to be okay. When you're hopeless as can be, and life is going nowhere, there's those moments we have every now and then where we just stop, and we get this feeling, that can't be described, but you just.. you just feel like everything really is going to be okay. Like the world stopped spinning for a second, and everything was clear. I need more of those moments

maybe we're not supposed to be happy. maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. appreciating small victories. admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know. and maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. at the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate.

ten things :

1. im loving nail polish at the moment ahaha

2. i have to stop thinking that you care about me more than anyone else. thats being selfish and obviously is unrealistic. also known as wishful thinking.

3. the early morning or really late at night makes me think weird and crappy things that i should not think about. it causes a lot of pain and self-bashing in the afternoon when i look back and realise what i was thinking about right now.

4. life can be so lonely at 4:30am.

5. i hate mosquito bites. so frikin itchy.

6. every time i see a picture of a lake now, i freak. damnit shutter island, now i dont ever want to live in a lake house ):<

7. i need to write up a resume.

8. what do you call someone who doesnt want to sleep ? i think i can sleep, but i like staying awake. am i waiting for something ?

9. i wish you were more serious about this sort of thing sometimes. you know, if only i was absolutely certain that you were serious when you asked, i wouldve said yes to both times. but its just that i dont understand your character.. that, or, im getting hurt pretty bad.

10. i want to come along! but i dont know if im actually meant to know about this. ..
