SAMSARA.

Look within. Listen. Remember. Ruminate. Aim for this dream.
You are a beautiful, complex creature with a labyrinth of dark corridors
and open sunlit meadows inside of you.

THE WILDNESS.

"For the warrior, the experience of sad and tender heart
is what gives birth to fearlessness."




You can never be too real.

Again, I am blessed with magical feelings: release, vulnerability, sadness, bliss, LOVELOVELOVE. All of it this is real. Sometimes it hurts, ya know! And yet I am happier than I have been in a long time. The Open Secret, y'all! Can you handle it??

SO TIGHT.

Just 20 minutes ago, I received a totally awesome package in the mail from a totally awesome girl! Miss Alison H. sent me three different kinds of yarn and 4 different knitting needles!!!! She included a mix CD and the most perfect self-made knit cap, and I can't wait to get the most use out of everything. I'm so psyched! I haven't had the chance to get my own knitting supplies since deciding I really want to learn, so this is just the greatest. Thank you, friend!!

GET REAL.

(Almost) totally unrelated, I love this girl!


Together forever, please.

HAIR.

via stylesightings
I've been seriously contemplating dying my hair lately. I love the natural color of my hair. It's a mix of blond, brown, and red, and it'll look like one of the three depending on the light. I've never dyed my hair before, but it could be such a fun change. I think black hair would really suit me, Snow White-style. But I know so many brunettes, and more often, I imagine having white-blonde hair. This girl's hair is so striking- I'm in love with it. The subtle touches of pink, too! I hesitate to go for it, because my hair is already damaged, and I don't even blow dry it anymore. It also requires upkeep, but I like the look of roots sometimes, and my hair grows incredibly slowly. If I could find a gentle way of getting this color, I would go for it.

IT'S NEVER ABOUT YOU.

"Some people- I feel like what they're trying to prove to the world is that there's no one like them. And I totally can't relate to that at all. ...What I'm interested in is the universal quality in people."

THE LARGEST FEELING TOWERING OVER ME.

I remember.
