— David Eggers ‘What is the What’
“just know loves all around you, my dear.”
“Indeed our hearts are golden treasures, but a true tragedy would be to conceal your inner gold because you are afraid of someone stealing it or it falling and breaking. There is no love in fear. The great wisdom of the ages always tells us the more we Love the more of it you receive. Love is not a giving or a taking, it is a state of being - a one way street of allowing, accepting and holding a space for all things to be exactly as they are.
Fear not that your heart will be broken or stolen. Love becomes love. Give it away with no expectation of return and soon you will be having a love affair with the whole world!”
"— Jackson Kiddard
Drank a glass of tears
Before I fell in love.
I just came across something I wrote 2 years ago… some things never change, and I find a little bit of comfort in that.
‘Summer is almost over and I am actually a little relieved. I need Autumn, it rejuvenates me and makes me want to spend every minute outside with a cozy sweater and copious amounts of coffee watching the leaves change. To me, Autumn feels like falling in love. It’s so romantic and pretty and comforting. It is also Maddyx’s first Autumn, well sort of last year she was only a couple months old and this year she can run through the leaves. I can’t believe how fast that happened. She is turning into such a beautiful little girl. She teaches me new things every single day, she challenges me and makes me grow as a person. I am so thankful that she is in my life.This is a very random post and it’s been awhile since I have been on here so what else is worth writing about…
AH, Buy the record ‘The Antlers - Hospice’ (it is the best album I have heard in a REALLY long time)
And that is really all for now.
The foliage has been losing its freshness through the month of August, and here and there a yellow leaf shows itself like the first gray hair amidst the locks of a beauty who has seen one season too many. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes’
