This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
Love is a very dangerous thing. It’s so easy to melt into someone else and lose everything that you have worked for up to this point.
2 years ago, I gave away the love of my life. Buried, suffocating in a loveless relationship, I decided to step out on a limb and say goodbye to everything I knew in order to fully know myself and my convictions. I started a journey on how to learn to love again - not only others, but myself too.
The past 24 months have been such a beautiful journey. Such a remarkable turn of events littered with incredible and instrumental people.
I’ve learned a balance. A healthy mix of family and friends and encouragement. I firmly believe that the lessons I have learned have brought the incredible people in my life. When you meet someone new though, all of that time and lessons and balance can seem like it’s sifting through your fingers.
I was watching/reading Eat, Pray, Love and they said “Sometimes to lose balance for love, is part of living a balanced life.” so we’ll see. My independence is what I love about my life. I’m not about to just give it away, but I think the journey also means that there are new kinds of balances to discover.
And that excites me.
I can’t stop thinking about our weekend together and the things that you said. I can’t stop being excited. I can’t stop thinking about how scared I am of you.
Please don’t hurt me.
