when you love love.

I have been so ruddy distracted lately. I know what most would say.. "that girl must have some kinda boy on her mind".. they aren't wrong, but they are not entirely right either.

the idea of love.
it keeps me awake at night.

not in a "I'll never find love and I'll die alone" sort of sense, I don't believe in that for a second. but the idea that so many people all over the world are dreaming about love and everyone is wanting that special kind of love. it not exactly what you are presented with on a daily basis but in a sense, it is. it is a fairytale for you and it mostly just involves a big warm hug and kiss that lets you know that who you are is more than okay with a certain someone whom you quite fancy. I don't believe in settling. when I think of those who settle for anything less than what they absolutely want, I am saddened for them. I mean, if everyone is out there searching for that feel-good-to-the-tips-of-your toes-kind-of-love, then, it can't be that hard to come by, can it? it's hard. this I know. but, keep dreaming. you just gotta get there.

good things

today I was watching a film with a great friend and I just became so overcome with my thoughts I completely lost myself in reality and in the film. I was imagining myself in a world in which I was surrounded by beautiful, good things. I don't mean materialistically beautiful and I don't mean good as in "high quality" or "top of the line name brand", I mean beautiful and good things, that pertain specifically to me. I want to surround myself entirely with things I love, things that mean something to me. Not useless items that I have been hoodwinked into thinking I want or need. I want to enjoy and truly appreciate every single thing that is around me for what it is in general, and what it is to me, and how it came to be and how simply beautiful something just being is. Isn't that what we are all doing, just, being? I feel as though a major purge is coming into my life, and items that do not hold a dear value to me will be put to a better use by someone else who will love them, and in such an act, I will participate in simplicity. It is so much easier to see everything that is good and well around you when the objects of negative vibrations are removed, not to mention less stressful to worry about the heaping piles of stuff you have laying about. Good vibrations, good feelings and a great way to end a stressful week. Simplicity, you bring out the best in me.
