This is a reminder to both myself and all of you. This is my all-time favorite quote, and it moves me everytime.
"Even after all this time, the sun never says to the earth, 'you owe me.' Look what happens with a love like that, it lights the whole sky."

Pessimism
I feel like everything in my life ends in hurting. I'm sick of it. I wish something infinitely good and permanent will come around.

I may or may not have just made a really poor decision.
Fuck. I'm just a giant mess of emotion, indecisiveness, and patheticness. I need to get out of here. Forget about everything. Go to Boston. Be with my best friend. I need to figure myself out. I need help.

"Just once I want to fall in love and not have it hurt so bad in the end. Actually can I just have a love that doesnt end? Or is there no such thing?"
I stumbled upon this while lurking other blogs. See... good does come from lurking! :)
A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, ‘What does ‘love’ mean?’
'When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn’t bend over and paint her toenails anymore.So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That’s love.’
Rebecca- age 8
‘When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You just know that your name is safe in their mouth.'
Billy - age 4
‘Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.’
Karl - age 5
‘Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs.
’Chrissy - age 6
‘Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired.’
Terri - age 4
‘Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more. My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss’
Emily - age 8
‘Love is what’s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen.’
Bobby - age 7
‘If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate,’
Nikka - age 6
‘Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday.’
Noelle - age 7
‘Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well.’
Tommy - age 6
‘Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Robert Redford.’
Chris - age 7
‘Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day’
Mary Ann - age 4
You really shouldn’t say ‘I love you’ unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget.’
Jessica - age 8

Eccentric
I love it when people describe me as eccentric. It mean I have accomplished in being different. And I really, really love it. :)

People are people
People are inherently good. Even people who you thought sucked, people who have hurt you before, they are good people too. I think a notion of kindness from a stranger of the past is the single most impactful thing. So thanks, humanity, for being good to me. :)
