What I can’t wait for:
A summer day with clear blue skies barefoot in blue jean shorts and a tank top with my hair blowing in the warm breeze sitting with my feet up on the front porch. Then spending the entire day with you, taking a walk and holding hands and just talking about nothing or everything. Finally, laying out on the grass at night and stare up at the stars and dream. Go to bed and wake up the next morning and do it all again. This is what I can’t wait for.
Please, keep looking. Not for a person, but for your passion, your love, your courage, your goals, your dreams, your happiness, yourself. Keep looking. Explore yourself before you explore another. Know your worth, know yourself. Only then will you know what you need over what you want. You need yourself to become your own.
“I wish we knew back then that being scared wasn’t a bad thing. That change and growth and something greater all begin at the tiptoes of what we know for sure. Leaving home on shaky feet and hiding from boys with thousand-watt smiles. Cities and strays and raw gnaw of hunger in your gut. In your soul, even, screaming out for more than you can carry. It looks like this: you in the corner of a bright yellow room with a shelf full of dreams collecting dust in each pocket. Me at the crack of a window, chipping paint from the walls of a place we’ve outgrown. Too big for our shoes. Hot blood in our veins on a race to our brains and our legs and our arms and the pits of our stomachs. I wish someone had sat us down and held our hands to our hearts, wild and young enough to crash without breaking, and I wish they had said, “Feel that, kiddo? The chaos? That’s how you know you’re headed somewhere good.””

Take some quiet time for yourself. In the…
Take some quiet time for yourself. In the quietness you will begin to recognize yourself again. We so easily lose ourselves in the daily shuffle of life. Mindfulness and awareness will allow you to participate in your life rather than only reacting to life. Through practicing mindfulness, you can begin to enjoy the simple things in life that have been lost in the clutter. Meditation is the powerful antidote to many of the poisons in your life; it stills vast yearnings and inner-discontentments. Meditation provides a reprieve from the vicious swings of worry; that horrid place where our mind continually wanders, where it’s filled with fear and grasping for unknowable futures. Meditation opens you to completeness; a moment of true reality. Meditation does not strive — it only opens you to what is. As your hopes and desires disappear, you emerge. Through meditation you begin to take form in your interior as a beautiful being. Free from self-deception and fear, you will start to see and believe in your own beauty. As you submerge into your own realm of nothingness you feel you are being pulled into some great oneness; a mending of the fractures in your own consciousness. Nothing to conquer or control, no-one to quarrel with — the still mind is peaceful, and the still mind is free. Your quiet moments prepare you for the harsh scuffles and abrasions of life. Take some quiet time for yourself to center and to transcend the madness. Quietness is the most unpretentious preparation for a life of peaceful significance.
