I can be stronger than my past in order to conquer my future.
I will keep telling myself until its second nature. I don’t have to succumb to my past experiences, the person that allowed others to mistreat her, her non-existent self-esteem, her lack of faith in people, her paranoia.
I can be whatever and whoever and however I want to be.
And I choose strength. I choose confidence. I...

In the past 24 hours
I have had multiple friends ask me for relationship/guy advice, etc. And its amusing to me, cause at the end of the conversations they tell me “you’re so smart”, or some other complimentary remark.
All I can think is “Yep, clearly I have it all figured out. Please take note of my invisible boyfriend over here, and for further evidence, here is my string of failed...

I feel strongly confronted by my strengths, their purpose, and my life’s purpose.
These things all exist outside the confines of society, expectation, or career.
I appreciate this moment of clarity, with full acceptance that clarity is not always a lengthy visitor, at least not to this degree.
I think I will sleep with a peaceful sense of gratitude tonight.
I love you, I love you, I...

Does anyone else ever experience the intense pain of longing when you have such a deep emotional connection to a song and it is so overpowering and intoxicating, all you want is to share it with another person and have them feel exactly what you’re feeling so that you’re not alone in that moment, but you know it defies description and even if they were in the moment with you, it still...

It’s all changing before my eyes, before I can even acclimate. This friend married, that one might as well be, this one buying a house, that one pregnant.
And I can’t even seem to graduate from college.
How can you catch up, and why this obsession with trying to?
I think I’d much prefer living on the fringes individually soaring, dancing, gliding to whatever...

It’s awesome enough when you find someone who you vibe with musically.
Then, when on top of that, you discover you vibe when it comes to songwriting with them…
…you understand what was missing all the other times you tried with other people.
And it’s so exciting! Alex and I wrote a song last night, and the process flowed in a perfectly organic way. I thumbed through my...

I’m not fashionable. I’m not trendy. I’m not beautiful, but when the light catches just right and the right person is looking I’m a certain kind of lovely.
I’m just a soul trapped in a body waiting to be set free
Inspiration in, inspiration out.
I can’t always catch it before it falls.
I can’t decide if I feel anything for anyone, or...

I am in tears from the beautiful phone conversation I just had with a dear friend. A true kindred spirit.
I love these moments in my life when I just know how right it all is — everything, even that which has gone seemingly wrong only to be so right.
I feel so healthy. So in touch with the earth. And I know it is all as it should be. And that is a peace of mind which nothing else can...

Walking through life without shoes.
Slowing to feel the earth beneath your feet.
Stopping to take in the moments of joy and pain,
the beautiful and the tragically disfigured,
and all the shades in between.

Almost Love song
Write a song about the fear of not being able to fall in love the way you did the first time. Not being able to let yourself go and really fall because you’re afraid of an ending. I think that is the frustration I’m feeling right now. I’m scared I won’t let myself feel the way I did about my first ever again, which is probably why this last relationship was a failure. It...

Why did you make me this way? A soft touch, a kiss or two, and a string is wrapped around my heart, thin though it may be.
Coming at me from every direction, sweet nothings. Can’t keep up. Can’t protect myself. Always wanting to fall.
Give me strength to stand or something to lean on.

Every book in here I wrote Some I’m not too proud of, some I wish I could burn So many pages I wrote, wish I could revise them But there’s no erasing and the best advice I got
Was keep writing, and keep living, and keep loving
And when the ink dries and the pages turn to dust so will we turn to dust

The funny thing about being cheated on
Its so different from any other kind of break up. It negates the need to worry or wonder about you. Worry that you’ve moved on first. Or if you’re with someone else.
You already moved on. You’ve already been with someone else.
There is nothing you could do in public that could hurt more than what you got caught doing in private.
It’s hurtful and freeing all at the same...

STRONG, BEAUTIFUL, POWERFUL, CONFIDENT, SEXY
This is my mantra. The words I tell myself in my head when I’m working out and I feel like I don’t have any energy left. The words that describe what I want to be, what I want to emulate.
And most importantly, the way that I want to feel about myself.
And you know what? The more times I say it, the more true it becomes.
It is so crazy how one thing in my life went so...

I Know I Have Been Happiest by Dorothy Parker
I know I have been happiest at your side; But what is done, is done, and all’s to be. And small the good, to linger dolefully— Gayly it lived, and gallantly it died. I will not make you songs of hearts denied, And you, being man, would have no tears of me, And should I offer you fidelity, You’d be, I think, a little terrified. Yet this the need of woman, this her curse: To range...

I wish I could tell you
That this persona you put on covers up what is special about you.
That no matter how talented you are, humility is better than arrogance.
That your bit of success has multiplied in your head and made you into something you are not.
That you are more than a plaid t-shirt, skinny jeans, and a pop song. I wish you believed it.
That the longer you hide behind this bravado, the more of yourself you...

Cheating is the new black
You have been getting the best of me for the last 8 months, and apparently it wasn’t enough for you. Its really nice to realize that you mean nothing to someone who meant so much to you. You could have left when you were done with the relationship, there is no shame in that. But instead you stayed and used me for all I was worth while pursuing others. I guess its better that I found out before I...

Why am I so stupid at my own life? Ahhh.
Sorry. I know I’m “the happy one”. But sometimes I can’t do it. Today I can’t do it.

That indescribable feeling that overpowers in life at times. A flash of a moment in time that takes you back to that intangible place that you’ll never touch again. That overpowering longing for something you might have had once, but perhaps not. Are you longing for innocence, or childhood, or simplicity, or purity? You can’t tell.
I can’t hold on to it. Its slipping through my...

On the male anatomy, and being a bitch
Sabrina: I don't know. The female form is just naturally so much more pleasing to look at. Looking at a guy pulling out his junk is like watching a drunk guy fall out of a car.

Me: It's not really glorious until it's inside of me.

I am much too alone in this world by Rainer Maria...
I am much too alone in this world, yet not alone enough to truly consecrate the hour. I am much too small in this world, yet not small enough to be to you just object and thing, dark and smart. I want my free will and want it accompanying the path which leads to action; and want during times that beg questions, where something is up, to be among those in the know, or else be alone. I...
