This is a creative piece. Action words only. Verbs. Bold is a character. Normal is a character. See if you can read into what is going on. I purposefully didn’t put in much detail. I’m hoping you might be able to realize what’s happening just by these words below.
Regret. Confusion. Worry. Shift. Regret.
Continue. Expect. Stare. Push. Force.
Swallow. Stand. Hurt....

Safety
I couldn’t go to sleep without posting. There is a subject on my mind at the moment that I cannot ignore. My family. My home is the most amazing place in the entire world. It’s a place that I just…want to be at. Something about it let’s me just be at ease. Nobody I need to impress. Everybody ‘gets’ me. ME. Not my...

Awkward
Silence. A void to avoid….Right?
Can someone be ‘unskilled at relationships’? A conclusion only drawn after a silence has been left unfilled?
Well, I have other ‘strengths’ says Mind. Internal strengths.
What does that even mean, Mind? How would you know anything of the emotions or the heart? You are merely factual. Intellectual. Analytical…..judgmental.

A new morning
You are the reason I’m alive. You are all my reasons. You created even the possibility for me to know you like a best friend, like a husband. I was your reward that day… I was was you received…me. Not money. You could’ve owned all of that. Not for my love -it doesn’t come close to measuring up. Not for fame. Or an image.
But for me. For us. Because you want US. And...
People
There is so much more to people then we let ourselves dwell on. Life is about things these days. Less about people. Less about what makes up a human being. More about advertising, pushing points and “giving and gaining”.
Another person’s mind is uncharted territory. Their heart is a different realm. Stepping outside our own understanding takes humility and risk, but...

Thought this was cool. A little different from the normal ones I’ve read before.
I don’t know how others do it. I can only tell you how I do it. I make sure I am present. I compliment her, not only her features but who she is as an individual. I reminder her of her gifts. I tell her I am proud of her when I am. I make sure I notice things, little things. The way she wore her hair. Her...

…by the way, is a really REALLY good movie.

Relationships...in General.
The world’s view of relationships is a little messed up…okay maybe a lot. Last couple days have been filled with research. Anything and everything on teen relationships - why most don’t last, how the few that do are able to, if they’re worth the effort…etc, etc, etc. Forums, blog rolls, articles, journals…I’ve looked through a whole gamut. And do you know...

I check back to this site almost every other day. It’s the photo blog of one of the most well known street fashion photographers today. The styles are bizarre, unique, elegant, chic…or pretty much any other adjective you can imagine.
