i’ve started writing what i hope will be a book of some sort. it freaks me out to admit that or to even want it, but…….. imma let it incubate.
i’m coming up on my last day at work. only 3 more days to go. (!!!!!!!!!) let me tell you how good it feels to quit a job that you fucking hate… indescribable.
my first korea position fell through. had my contract in hand and the position got removed, which is insane. my recruiter said he’s never seen that happen before. which pretty much sums up this experience so far. but as...

i feel too unworthy to pray. too fearful for faith too lacking to want. too needy to obtain. too much and never quite enough. is it okay to want this thing… …this much? have mercy. i know i do not deserve it. isn’t that what mercy is for?
i have surrendered.
yesterday, i told you i was yours. so casually. without reservations. it surprised me but not because it was not true. because it’s been permeating through me to all the deep places inside. i’ve been unfair in love. i’ve asked too much. given too little. figured out my feelings as i went. but with you… i have withheld nothing. there is not a thing i would not give you. my...

so... i have a girlfriend.
officially. i suppose i’ve had one for the last few months. but we’d never given each other that label. neither of us are into all that. we took our time getting to know each other and sharing our lives and just being… letting things happen however they happen. but yea… now she’s my girlfriend. which is new to me. this is all very new to me. it feels balanced. the...
i am not one who feels lonely... just perpetually...

you never know what life will bring you… or where it will take you. i still don’t know. still can’t fathom the mysteries of my path. or the ferocity of this love. the excitement and the calm and the parts of myself that remain hidden. the expectations of my parents and the presence of my Father, nudging me to search for Him and be found. i feel like i’m on the edge of the...

i don’t think i’ve ever been this anxious slash excited slash nervous about anything in my life. just hoping this waiting doesn’t drive me crazy. praying that this turns out to be something worth waiting for.

i remember the smallest things… we were eating ethiopian food in this random little dive. talking about what we like about each other and how something that started so casual grew into something so much more. the only distance between us was a wicker table and it felt so nice and normal and i wished it could be like this all the time. you took one more sip of your beer before we stood up and...

lying in bed with many a thought about many a things. life has been good to me. also, i miss the sex. that will be remedied soon… but never soon enough.
there are 2 things i want right now… 2 little, humongous life changing things. i’m afraid to want them too much but i can’t help myself. i wake up in a dark room with longing in my heart. when my imagination paints a picture of my future, they are at the center. when my mind drifts, they are the place i find it. hopeful.
“And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
