  3. yesterday i decided to run away for a little bit.  so, i drove up the coast until i wanted to stop, and this is where i found myself- paradise cove. i needed some reminding that life is just straight up beautiful and amazing and not quite as heavy as i sometimes make it.  i’ve just got to keep getting up and living is all. really, truly living..

  5. i can’t stop watching and listening to this video.  everything about it is beauty.  the murmur of people passing by, or stopping to watch.  the handsome waiter not being able to hide the smile on his face at 2:55.  the clinging of espresso cups, the artwork standing next to its creators.  the wind blowing through the leaves.  and then the words.  the guitar.  that voice sliding quietly into the cracks of those feathered thoughts.. cause really, we all make mistakes… we do..

  9. today my roommate and i spent the day at the beach.  it was basically pure bliss and i’m pretty sure my heart might have exploded because it was all so beautiful.  here are some photos.  that is all.

  10. i haven’t been sleeping too well lately. i have these brief moments of sheer and utter panic. moments where i can’t seem to push past that daunting blackness of the unknown. it’s harder to move, to breathe, to just do what i need to do to keep living. but they pass, these moments, and the unknown turns into endless possibility; something far greater than i could ever imagine for myself. but even in that there is panic.. but rather than paralyzing me it frees me to move in ways i never knew i could. i like this kind of panic better. it’s just funny you know.. how life can be both the most terrifying and the most wonderful thing all at the same time.
