I hope with all my heart that whoever walks out of the church with her beside him is someone who makes her happy and treats her like a queen. She deserves the best. Someone who makes her smile every day, someone who will hold her when the tears fall, and someone who will be there decades later to remind her that she is loved.
Some people find physics awe inspiring.
Some people are amazed by math and all its patterns.
I find literature to be awe inspiring. I get these images in my head that are as grand as pictures of far away galaxies. That’s why I love it so much.
“Can I hold your hand
when your heart feels so weary
and the tears won’t stop?”
– Daily Haiku on Love by Tyler Knott Gregson (via tylerknott)
Tears make me sad. Even when they’re not mine. Especially when they’re not mine.
I'll Wait
I’ve got a backpack in my hand Some food and a sleeping bag Your picture’s in my wallet And the list is right beside it And I’m heading down the road To the place where we first kissed Surrounded by the sand With the river behind us I’m gonna set up my camp And wait till you come back I’ll spend my days playing All the scenes of our love Through my empty mind...
“I’ll make you happy
in all of the ways you swore
you never deserved.”

Storm - Lifehouse
Read all these lyrics, but if not, at least read the bold ones. This song is beautiful. i have it on my sad playlist because it is just that, sad, but it also has this hint of hope.
How long have I been in this storm? So overwhelmed by the ocean’s shapeless form Water’s getting harder to tread With these waves crashing over my head If I could just see you Everything would be all...
“Love is the loudest song you’re ever gonna sing.”

“No one will ever
kiss you like I do. I have
memorized your lips.”

I’m in this online Lit class. It’s a multi-year program, and I’ve been doing it for a number of years now. I just found out that one of the girls that was in a few years ago just died. She had a stroke and never recovered. I never met the girl. Nor did I ever talk to her directly, but I am still saddened by the news. It’s also a sobering thing to hear, knowing that she was...
I would post another photo of that couple, but as the photo isn’t watermarked, I don’t want to risk it being stolen. Instead, here is the link.
It’s the third photo from Ryan and Kendra’s engagement shoot.
I just love the posing and how it looks like the only thing he cares about is her. The way he’s looking back, it’s like he doesn’t want to go a...
On Anabel Lee:
I just read Anabel Lee by Edgar Allan Poe, and I thought of Inception. The way that their world was by the sea and they both existed entirely for each other and no one else because there was no one else. It was one of those random thoughts that was really interesting to think about for a minute.
That being said, Anabel Lee is an amazing poem. Probably my favorite love poem. Not that I’m...
Photo
This is just an amazing picture of a couple. I hope they have an amazing life spent together.
On Scary Moments:
You know that feeling when you’re with one other person, and they are eating something, and then they choke and cough? and that feeling the instant you hear them choke a little and you realize that you don’t know the Heimlich maneuver? and your stomach drops out and everything slows down and everything around you fades into nothingness because all you see and hear and care about is...
“What seed was planted
that could grow into this love?
Such roots we have...”

Minecraft 1.2
Yess. colored wool for all your home decorating needs. Finally a use for all my wool.
New trees for a little more diversity in the forest.
New mob. (One that’s passive so I don’t have to be scared all the time.)
Music blocks. This will be awesome to play with. Doorbell anyone?
And tons of other stuff.
And best of all, cake! (It’s pretty useful too. It heals lots of hearts.)

“Curl up next to me
and fall asleep to the calm
that only I bring.”
– Daily Haiku on Love by Tyler Knott Gregson (via tylerknott)
Maybe It’s just me, but the mere thought of having her fall asleep in my arms makes me smile. I think it’s because sleep is such a vulnerable state, and to be willing to be that vulnerable while in somebody’s arms shows a...

Okay, gamer post coming up, so ignore if you so...
I was thinking about Half Life, and Portal and how they are connected. And about all this lack of Half Life 2 Ep 3 rage that happened when Portal 2 was announced. So I had this thought that seems a little far fetched, but would be totally awesome, and might actually be the case, although I doubt it. So here it goes:
For anyone who’d noticed, there’s one thing that’s been very...
"Your Feet" by Pablo Neruda
When I cannot look at your face I look at your feet. Your feet of arched bone, your hard little feet. I know that they support you, and that your sweet weight rises upon them. Your waist and your breasts, the doubled purple of your nipples, the sockets of your eyes that have just flown away, your wide fruit mouth, your red tresses, my little tower. But I love your feet only because they walked...
“We always try to find visual storytelling means instead of just saying things.”
– John Lasseter
Right on. “Show don’t tell”, it’s writing 101, but is often forgotten in movies.
