Walking in the Rayne

All the feelings… all the love… all the need… all the yearning. It is a human thing. You are not alone in wanting, needing and deserving it.

"You were in my dreams last night" yeah our souls have been clawing through our chests to get to each other since we met but I'm glad you noticed.

Someone told me the other day that when they feel nervous about trying something new & their heart starts beating really fast, that they call it their "inner applause" because their body is cheering them on, and i think that's the best narrative adjustment ever.

Not yet anyway…

You're not healing to be able to handle trauma, pain, anxiety, depression. You're used to those.
You're healing to be able to handle joy and to accept happiness back into your life.

I told myself never again, and I did it again.

#relatable

why yes, i am adorable in a feral raccoon kinda way.

People who tell you to overcome trauma or mental illness by just waking up and choosing to be happy should be told to fuck off a lot.

In religion we call it spirits.
In science we call it energy.
In the streets we call it vibes.
All I'm saying is trust it

I'm not just a silly goose, l'm also a very philosophical and passionate goose.

Working your regular job while working on your own personal career while working on yourself while working out while working on your relationship while working on your friendships while working on other personal goals while trying to accommodate everyone while trying to sleep...

When two givers indulge in a connection, it's like magic.
It's alchemy. I water you, you water me, we never drain each other, we just grow.

A customer told me she couldn't believe this store would put up a Pride display, because what if children see it??

Anyway, it was my display, and I'm proud of it, and you (and your children) should all see it. #BookSky 📚💙

If a goodbye hurts, it means you’ve spent your time well. If I ever cross your mind, however brief, I hope that it is with a passing that lightens your heart with a benevolent smile and if not, forgive me.

She is a wild child with a gypsy soul that dances with the stars. She has a free spirit, a reckless mind and a rebel heart that isn't meant to be tamed. Love her wild and you will never lose her.

“ Si, de tes lèvres avancées, Tu prépares pour l'apaiser,
À l'habitant de mes pensées
La nourriture d'un baiser,
Ne hâte pas cet acte tendre, Douceur d'être et de n'être pas, Car j'ai vécu de vous attendre, Et mon coeur n'était que vos pas.”
