True friendships

are truly intimate. <3

You can't pick your family but you can pick your friends.

he makes me smile

After being with the same person for a decade, I can say that he still makes me smile before I go to bed.

It's already September

Time flies. As I reflect on this past summer with having wonderful opportunities to travel with my family and go on missions, I wonder what chapter it will be in my crazy life. I am realizing that God will continuously pour His blessings when we least expect it. Since HE knows me so well, HE finds the best ways to teach me about HIS love for me.

This song has been in my head for the past couple of days.

may the words of my mouth
and the voice of my heart
bless your name bless your name jesus

and the deeds of the day and the truth in my ways
speak of you speak of you jesus

for this is what i'm glad to do
its time to live a life of love that pleases you
and i will give my all to you
surrender everything i have and follow you
ill follow you

lord will you be my vision
lord will you be my guide
be my hope, be my light and the way
and ill look not for riches
nor praises on earth
only you'll be the first of my heart

i will follow
i will follow
i will follow you

smile

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though its breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, youll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
Youll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
Thats the time you must keep on trying
Smile, whats the use of crying?
Youll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

Thats the time you must keep on trying
Smile, whats the use of crying?
Youll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

some of my favorite outfits in marc by marc jacobs.

I understand feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible. And how it can actually ache in places you didn't know you had inside you. And it doesn't matter how many new haircuts you get, or gyms you join, or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends... you still go to bed every night going over every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how you could have misunderstood. And how in the hell for that brief moment you could think that you were that happy. And sometimes you can even convince yourself that he'll see the light and show up at your door. And after all that, however long all that may be, you'll go somewhere new. And you'll meet people who make you feel worthwhile again. And little pieces of your soul will finally come back. And all that fuzzy stuff, those years of your life that you wasted, that will eventually begin to fade.

I’m not an abstractionist. I’m not interested in the relationship of color or form or anything else. I’m interested only in expressing basic human emotions: tragedy, ecstasy, doom, and so on.
