run girl, run as fast as you can.

Together can never be close enough for me, 
to feel like I'm close enough to you. 


I've never ever looked forward to a Monday as much as I do right now.




Today a friend reminded me of something that I regret not thinking about more often.
Our lives are all filled with heartbreak. We break, get knocked down, get left behind.


It's so easy to get caught up in the moment that we are in and forget where we came from. 
All of those moments when we were choking on tears not being able to breathe, later on down the road are the reasons why we are smiling. We may not realize it then, but just keep holding on. 


While I was venting to Matthew about my dad waiting 5 days after my birthday to call me and tell me that he forgot about my birthday... he reminded me that we have the lives that we have for a reason. One of my favorite quotes has always been: "God gave you the life that you have because he knows you're strong enough to live it." I just don't ever want to forget that. 


Now that I'm in the spot in my life that I'm in,
I'm so thankful for all of the times that i've had to put my heart back together, it lead me to something great.

we're two birds of a  feather and the rest is just whatever.

You know when you're little and they tell you that new shoes make you run faster? I still believe that. 

I got brand new shoes and everything is alright :)
I decided after my killer run yesterday and my knees we about to collapse,  that I needed to splurge and but some new shoes. I like this new obsession with running. It's a good challenge for myself. 


I think its always better when the challenges you face are from yourself, it makes them easier to give up, harder to take on.
