just a thought.
finish my undergraduate degree with above a 3.5 G.P.A.
find myself in this relationship and live and love us with everything i have until we’re both ready to walk down the aisle.
buy my own car with my own money. a car i can be proud to drive to wichita and back without worrying it’ll fall apart.
learn to let go of what i can’t change and to live more in the moment.
find someone to lead with all of their heart when it’s my turn to graduate.
work full time in a healthcare position i love while attending graduate school part time.
become as organized and prioritized with cleaning and housework and homework as i am with my schedule and at work.
make more strong friendships to rely on when there’s more distance and less time.
travel once a year to somewhere i’ve never been.
be happier with the way i look and feel.
volunteer more with causes i’m connected to. (youth, parenting, health)
keep more in touch with people i used to be close with.

Sometimes my heart feels so full i can’t breathe and even though I know it’s just me, I sometimes think I wont survive long enough to tell you I love you as much as I want to.
Sometimes, I think you’re as oblivious as it gets and even when you admit it, I’m still left wondering why you hold on so tight at all the wrong times. It’s like a long car ride where you don’t speak until we pull into the driveway and you’re suddenly slurring your words as the excitement of being home radiates from your leftover energy and I’m falling all over again for the boy who never wants to leave.
You’re close to your family, and even if I won’t admit it, i’m close to mine too. We both come from two halves who combined to create a couple of souls who spend every second of every day searching for something more.
And we do that together except sometimes, no all the time, we get a little stubborn and we’re stuck with furrowed brows and teeth biting tongues until one of us gives in.
No, that’s not right, it’s only until you give in. Because I advertise an open mind but when it comes down to it, I’m always right and it’s always my way. I never give in and that’s not so bad because I never give up either. Back to that being stubborn business…
Anyways, I’m not quite sure where I’m going with all this rambling. I just want to remember what it feels like to be this young and alive and in love. I want you to know I’ll always bite my tongue for you.
Well, I’ll always try to remember to but with both know I forget to hold it together so I promise instead to never stop telling you I love the way you get so into a song you lose the words and It’s okay, I’d rather you spend those moments singing instead of speaking. You always hit the right key and I’ll fall asleep dreaming anyway.

"The problem, often not discovered until late in life, is that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful people in life recognize, that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation. For me, I am driven by two main philosophies, know more today about the world than I knew yesterday. And lessen the suffering of others. You’d be surprised how far that gets you."

"Everything is energy and that’s all there is to it. Match the frequency of the reality you want and you cannot help but get that reality. It can be no other way. This is not philosophy. This is physics."
