"We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us something is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit."

-  E.E. Cummings (via arightontimeconscience)

I didn’t just write this book for me, I wrote it for you. I wrote it for the broken girls. I wrote it for the weary women who think they can’t love again. I wrote it for my momma and my daughter. I wrote for my younger self who was so lost. I wrote this book with the youth in mind.  I wrote it for our good days and bad days. I hope my words bring women together. I hope my words give us peace. I love you all for pushing me to write this. I will forever be humbled by your belief in me. #wordsfromawanderer  (at https://www.createspace.com/4270960)

We are not meant to be controlled by one another. The manipulation games are old and overused. Love true.

My Summer

It’s going to be wild. Tomorrow I’m going to a concert, Friday I’m going out for drinks with an old friend, and Saturday I’m possibly going to a cookout and a dance recital. In July, I’m taking a road trip to PA with a couple of my friends and I know later this year me and my dad are flying out to the Grand Canyon and possibly Atlanta and Mississippi. I also hope to visit my little cousin a couple times at Cedar Point, go to a couple more concerts, take another road trip, and just have a great time. 

On the work end, I’m hoping to get my book done by the end of June. I’ll hopefully open my online store by the end of July and start doing more photo shoots. I’m also currently looking for a job more in my field. This year is going to be hectic and amazing. I do better under pressure. 

When it comes to my love life…we’ll see how that goes. Currently, someone has my heart, but I’m not sure what will happen with that. Maybe it will work out, maybe it won’t. He has some issues to work out before we are able to connect again. There’s potential there, but sometimes people would rather keep their rose-colored glasses on rather than step out into the real world and have real, adult love. *shrug* We’ll see.

Overall, this summer and fall will be amazing nonetheless.
