"Your hands in your hair
and your breathing is quickened,
I am here with you."

It took a really long time.. But I’ve found and been found by someone beautiful. It’s been a journey finding myself on it’s own, but I am blessed. Taking things as they come, and learning with and about each other. Enjoying each day, laugh and embrace. Takin it slow and being “so in like” is just my cup of tea.

“It’s dark because you are trying too hard.
Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly.
Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply.
Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.
I was so preposterously serious in those days, such a humorless little prig.
Lightly, lightly – it’s the best advice ever given me.
When it comes to dying even. Nothing ponderous, or portentous, or emphatic.
No rhetoric, no tremolos,
no self conscious persona putting on its celebrated imitation of Christ or Little Nell.
And of course, no theology, no metaphysics.
Just the fact of dying and the fact of the clear light.
So throw away your baggage and go forward.
There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet,
trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair.
That’s why you must walk so lightly.
Lightly my darling,
on tiptoes and no luggage,
not even a sponge bag,
completely unencumbered.”
― Aldous Huxley, Island

I have a lot of friends newly single.. And some others newly in like, and newly in love. All I want to remind you is.. It’s okay. Take care of you- and your heart & spirit. You deserve happiness.. Don’t be afraid of it. A lot of people freak out at anything new in life. Embrace it. We are all too precious.. Too beautiful… Too young to be unhappy and in unhealthy relationships. Live your life and love others. You deserve the most bestestly amazing things.. All good things. #soapbox #selflove #growth #joy #happiest
