love bein here
off to white rock beach

bein alone

in a field of flowers

makes for good pictures


i tried my best to capture it but photography still can't get the smell, or how soft all the petals were, or the sunshine and wind. so you should stop and smell the flowers sometime :)

i love flowers

I'd rather have roses on my table than diamonds on my neck.  
~Emma Goldman

the beatles will always remind me of him.
isn't that a good way to start out a post?
of all the thoughts running through my mind that's the one to put down.

to quote ecclesiastes in the bible
 To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing.
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

a time to love him, a time to curl up in a ball and cry
a time to love bein in love and a time to let it go and realize there is probably even better things for me out there.

and to quote the beatles
it's only a fool who plays it cool by making his world a little colder.

it's funny how fast i can think myself into a insecure mess
give me 20 seconds and i'm there
give me another hour to talk myself out of it

but it seems the balls in my court
and
i'm stuck on the fence.

a time for.. giving him a call
or a time for editing pictures, thinking, and blogging about not picking up the phone.

i stood and listened while this guy sang his version of somewhere over the rainbow.
hearing live music is a different experience.
it's so cool to feel the actual music being created right in front of you
like standing in choir and feeling peoples voices behind you.
