Protesting “Dating”
My thoughts from my personal journal… I’m a hopeful romantic, stuck in a time of instant gratification. No more regrettable walks of shame while being hung over.

Twelve Seconds.

Curiouser and curiouser… Park Thoughts: Why does she live so curiously of others?

They face the sun & follow it from the east…If positivity were a metaphor for the sun, would heliotropic people be considered more optimistic? Or inspire others to be more so? Hyper accumulative: Pulls from the soil. They absorb anything that can have a…

Grow Love
When your heart breaks. When you want to armor up. When you want to erect those walls around your heart. Remember… Love doesn’t hurt. Disappointment hurts. Anger hurts. Loss hurts.
