time may change me but i can't trace time...

what's to come:
-one of my best friends, former roommate, girl who's been through so much with and without me is finally GETTING MARRIED to the man of her dreams. she's finally ready and it's finally time.
-i'm moving from my apartment to a house and don't have any intention of moving til i am asked to marry someone as well(if it could work out like that).
-i'm getting another tattoo reflecting my growth and intense changes i've been making. realizing my personality overhaul is a terrifying and crazy and beautiful thing. need to express the joy through ink/art.
-the minute i get the time and the money, i'm taking my driving test and getting my fucking license. it's been too long and i'm finally willing.
-i plan to get a new phone once i can afford that as well.
-my hair needs a change again.

with all the new crazy changes happening, im feeling happily influenced to pursue finally making an art page on facebook and an etsy account. it's going to be great!i'm going to use my new surroundings and what will feel almost like a new life to let everything else bloom from it.

i'm going to be even more consistent with this damn thing.

tangent:
a friend from church is also getting married this weekend. she talked of her journal to her future husband that she had been writing for a while now(even before she met her fiance). her fiance read it and the experience sounded beautiful. to be able to show that man  what your past and future hopes and dreams are and to let that man know that he is fulfilling all of these written dreams by just being himself. imagine how amazing he must feel and how nervous. hopefully it's the good kinda nervous that makes you always on your toes but ready to be amazing daily. i feel like it'd be the type of nervous the president feels every morning. so much responsibility and so much strength/power. it'll scare ya shitless but you'll feel like you're walking on air. i hope my future husband feels like that when he hears and sees my "journal". my friend made me want to start my own version. it sounds rejuvenating. i'm DOIN IT!

im hopeful for what's next. scared, but hopeful!

i've lost people and i've gained people in my life. it'd be great if we could only gain, but for some unexplained reason, balance is important. thankfully, the people i have gained are helping to make all of these wonderfully big-feeling changes happen. thanks to them, i am growing into more of me.

xray.

it just feels right to post this :)


Look inside. 
Pass the layers of skin.
Pass the bones.
pass the veins.
Pass the muscle, the tissue, and then
view my heart.

Know that heart.
Every crack, every bruise, every rupture
And every stitch.
Every part that's been beaten and torn.
Every damaged artery.
Every mended and patched piece.
Study.
learn.
Know.

Peer inside.

know the reason for its pulsing beat.
the reason warm blood flows.
Find my soul.

thrive amongst a hive

hive:
    -a place swarming with activity.
    -a teeming crowd. a multitude.

i found a new tranquility. a new joy.
i realized i need to keep moving and keep being involved in the world to not only be happy, but also, so live. to have energy. to move. the more activity i am a part of, the more active and happy i feel.
alone time is good and all, but its not as good as the awesome energy of togetherness and activity.
in that energy. in that hive, i am calm. i am content. i am not anxious or fearful. i am happy.

i haven't been happy for a while. first i was slowly getting lower and lower and lower. then i hit what felt like the bottom. since that floor-hitting moment, i've been getting higher and higher again. high on life and happy again. regaining logic, perspective and optimism. feeling like someone that deserves love and that CAN love well. it feels great. i have a renewed hope. and it's all thanks to God, life and the "hive."

the hive. the energetic world of amazing people that i was once a part of, but was distant from for a while. that beautiful lively world. old friends and new friends. get-togethers. hookah. weddings. movie nights. dancing. parties. concerts. art shows. shopping. it's life. its great and it is what i need to focus on. the energy.

some of my favorite guys help me with the joy sometimes :)
