Month: February 2016

I am forever grateful for the moments you can sit back and smirk with great satisfaction at the life in front of you.
The moments you think, “I couldn’t be happier.”
“This couldn’t be more perfect.”

It’s those moments all on their own that make this life worth living.
Make this life worth working for.
Still open during construction.

Like most days, yesterday was dialed to perfection. My life is flourishing in my native soil with my family and growing with my friends. Thriving with sunshine and laughter. I’m overflowing with gratitude of this beautiful life I was given to grow.

It’s so effortless.

I drove by your parents’ house yesterday. I forgot you told me they divorced.  The For Sale sign in my face nearly broke my heart, and I’ll never know what made you stop loving me but know that I think about you all the time.

Even after the night I met you for dinner, and you expressed no remorse for the way things had been, and not that an apology is even what I was looking for, but I can’t help but to desperately hope that your addiction hasn’t since rid your memory of the mornings you woke up and pulled me closer.
