who we are in junior high is NOT who we are as adults 

i've been thinking about that a lot in the past few days and for everyone that i've shared that revelation with they've all said "and THANK GOD." LOL. it's true... it is a good thing that we grow and become different people than who we were in that weird, unreasonable age.

life can be so complicated and take you to so many challenges and obstacles, and wonderful times and painfully hilarious times, it's really amazing. it's amazing how it all falls together. i don't know, maybe the thought of how busy and intertangled (it's not a real word, i know, but it seems appropriate) my life is currently, is making me batty. sometimes i think "i have so much i want to do with my life... is there time to do it all??" i want to have this bomb ass career, but i also want to be a mother and raise amazing children. where do you start? what do you give up and sacrifice to make which thing happen? please, don't follow the thoughts of this rambling maniac. go 'bout's ya bizness.

btw, i know you've never been in love and you don't know what to say. but take this straight from my heart: you're such a good person... and an even better cousin.

and finally, to the one and only love of MY life:
"Better Together" Jack Johnson

There's no combination of words
I could put on the back of a postcard
No song I could sing
But I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a, shoebox of photographs
With sepiatone loving
Love is the answer,
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? and where do we go?
And how come we're so hard?
It's not always easy and
Sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing its always better when we're together

[Chorus:]MMM its always better when we're together
Look at the stars when we're together
Its always better when we're together
Yeah, its always better when we're together
And all of these moments
Just might find there way into my dreams tonight
But I know that theyll be gone
When the morning light sings
And brings new things

But tomorrow night you see
That theyll be gone too
Too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find there way
Into my day to day scene
Ill be under the impression
I was somewhere in between
With only two
Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be
We'll Sit beneath the mango tree
Its always better when we're together
Somewhere in between together
Its always better when we're together
Yeah, its always better when we're together
MMmmmm MMMmmmm Mmmmmm
I believe in memories
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is no time,
And there is no song I could sing
And there is no, combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're Better together.
