"Now I see the secret of making the best person: it is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth." ~ Walt Whitman

kindness, a true religion

im not sure about heaven and hell any more. i would like to think heaven is real. that this life goes on forever and i will be able to see all the ones who have gone before me. i’m just not so sure i believe that anymore. i have a lot of questions these days. maybe whatever you believe to be true . . . happens. i would like to think that. i have friends who do not believe in anything. they think when you die life is over and maybe for them it will be. i have friends who believe that they will go to heaven when they die and maybe they will. 

how do you know what is right to believe and what is not? is there a right and wrong? i do not know. i just can’t bring myself to believe that. there are many good hearted people who don’t believe in god. so hell is their destiny? and there are so many rotten christians who get to spend eternity walking streets of gold? i can’t wrap my brain around it. 

all i try to do these days is be kind. there can’t be harm in that- to treat every human being the same,  no matter what they believe. 

and who knows, maybe i will get to meet god in heaven and then maybe he will send me back to earth as a bird. i’d like that.

advice for winter

If you don’t like the story you are telling, move the sentences around.
Let somebody read your body like a question mark.
Shake some souls, move some worlds. Make music and feel it in your bones.
Let nothing go to waste.

Come Back

This used to be you. I hope you find your way back soon. I need my sister.

can't wait to see you

you are so far away

i feel like i need a million hugs tonight

i finally slept in my bed

Since you left, I have not been able to sleep in my own bed. I also caught a bad case of insomnia. All I do is lay awake thinking about how I want to get lost with you. Because it doesn't matter where we go, as long as I'm with you. Anywhere but here though, I need a change of scenery.

2 more weeks

Sheesh

WOW. Today has been near perfect.

It's been a while since I've slept in and I got to today!
2011 has been amazing so far (minus not having my boyfriend here)
I've watched cartoons all day, cleaned the kitchen and started the year off great with a new blog!


That's where all my time and energy has gone this month. It's been a great way of coping with Stace being gone.

But I will continue to escape here. always. Coffee Stains has become my refuge when I tend to think myself dizzy.

Day 1

So today is day 1 of 35 without Stacey.
Honestly I didn't think for a second it would be a problem for me, miss independent, miss i love being alone, miss I have tons of things to occupy my time with. Yeah I knew I would be sad, but gee this is a total shocker- Day 1 and I'm already having withdrawals. I know it is only going to get harder so I'll save all my depressing emotions for later.

In order to not go insane I have told myself to stay busy. Spend time with the girls. Finish some art projects. Get motivated. Set some goals to focus on through the month. Eat healthy and exercise. And most importantly, Blog Blog Blog.

Keep Positive.
