Greatest lesson I learned this week was to take it easy on myself.
Hard to do, not natural for me.
Constant rejections from employers can only mean one thing.
I’m meant for something even better.
I hope I remember this in love, career, and life.

Sometimes only you know how it feels to be you.
What you are going through, and choices you need to make.
Perhaps I have been selfish in not making a decision.
Just focus on what is right in front of me.

It’s funny how reading back on what I wrote can be therapeutic in new ways. Like a different me speaking to another author.
Go figure.
As always, your love and support mean more than any worries can conquer. A tide of warmth above my cold.
Thank you.
Sometimes, the only way to distract yourself from your worries is to focus on something different.
Craft Hope’s Project 22 is to decorate flip flops that will be donated to the young girls of Nicaragua. Just reading this and looking at these pictures make my eyes well up in tears over how much poverty is seen and how seemingly hopeless happiness is, and yet they manage to hold onto each other for strength. I’m inspired: http://www.crafthope.com/blog/2013/05/-project-22-the-children-of-la-chureca.html. Join me in something as simple as dollar store flip flops, mailed to the USA address, and by July 10th, 2013, shipment will be made to delight these young faces with what we take for granted everyday.
Thank you for being my support for each step I take. 
Looking back at my caves, I realize how dark one’s thoughts can be.
Hope can only be found once we have aired grievances.
May you find light wherever you go. And forgive me for my shortcomings.
Ameen.
Song: “I Will Wait”, Mumford & Sons
Butterflies will come to you when you least chase after it,
Standing perfectly still, breathing,
You find that the fruit lay within you all along.

He dives in with her through the deep end. Walking with her on the rim. Nothing keeps them apart, except for darkness that haunts. ~ Amaluna, Cirque de Soleil
As my photography and summer pick-up, I am lifted by all your support and know that despite my absence, I do keep all of you dear in my heart!
May you float with hope as you have helped me as a lifesaver.
Ameen.
