stuck in a {fearful} corner.




















my poor little blog probably feels so helpless from me abandoning it.
it’s pathetic really.

fear will do that to you, i guess… make you abandon people, places, things that made you happy. speaking from experience, being in a particularly vulnerable place in life myself, fear is a terrible corner to back yourself up in. i have harbored the full spectrum of emotions over the past several months. & somehow after all the anger, crying, jealousy, + hurt begin to dwindle, i have fear leftover on my plate. fear in how to approach these situations + people that have been the cause.  i have this fear of saying the wrong words at the wrong moment. but if i’m really being honest, then i need to say out loud how i’m feeling. i need to be vulnerable.

& i’m trying to gain some perspective. i’ve been looking at my current state so closely, i feel like i’ve put it under a magnifying glass. & all i can see is the negative. my heartache, anger, hopelessness… it’s time to take a step back and look at the big picture. there will be something good that will come out of this, right? i have to believe there will be. otherwise, i will be stuck in my fearful corner for awhile…

blown away.

























































i often find myself wishing that a storm would come ripping through...
shattering the windows,
tearing the doors off their hinges,
washing out the dust + disheartened overcast that has hung heavy in the air.

i want it all to just blow over + away.
& take my discouragement with it.

costs + rewards.


















































i hope maybe someday you'll see that i'm not such a terrible person.
{& that you messed up too.}

i wonder if you even realize how costly your mistakes have been...
& how hollow the reward is.

delicate + enduring.

































i hate having sleepless nights.
i hate when i feel that someone got the best of me.
{insecurity can be such a thief.}

& i really hate letting go when i don’t want to.
but i know i need to.

thank goodness i don’t need to be strong all the time.
because He will be that for me.

loving well {with a fragile heart}

































































this morning i prayed for more peace about past hurts.
& it was hard...
knowing that i've held on to my pain + have plainly stared at my scars over the past 2 years.

when you try repeatedly to have closure {or try to fix what you broke}with someone,
it's pretty easy to assume the worst when a month, 2 months, + now almost 5 months have gone by.
& we still haven't spoken.

& i don't want to assume. buti'm still bothered.
i think it's time to decide whether i have the strength to let it go completely...
or do i have the guts to speak to my friend again.

somedays i wish i wasn't so fragile,

cozied {up}


























































sometimes i think it would be nice to live in a different zipcode.
kansas always sounds appealing because of its familiarity.
colorado is my even bigger dream that seems a little out of reach right now, but is still possible in the future.

but right now, home is here in oklahoma.
& i’m just happy to be cozied up in my bed {kinda worn out from this last week + thinking about the one ahead.}
snuggling with three adorable cats.
just relaxing.

even if it is just one day off work.

going down + burning out



















































"i won't go as a passenger, no
waiting for the road to be laid
though i may be going down
i'm taking flame over burning out.

compare where you are and where you want to be,
and you'll get nowhere."

can i just say today has been awful? because it truly has.
ugh, i just need to be pinterest-ing, painting my nails, & listening to sara bareilles.

i really am out of foolproof ideas, sara.

so long {summer}































































i wish i could stay at the beach + ocean forever.
no makeup.
wild hair.
always tan.

but i do miss my kitties.
& my bed.
normal american food...
& being able to have a shower everyday.


packing is SO not my favorite...

{the water's} rough









































































seems like there's always someone who disapproves,
they'll judge it like they know about me + you.

& the verdict comes from those with nothing else to do.

{this} time
































































why does it feel like time took a sudden halt?
or that it's dragging its feet?

maybe it's a good thing...
