fairy tales.

i believe in fairy tales. i don't think there is anything wrong with that. dashing heros, great adventures and happy endings. it's what we should all strive for. i want to be a princess. strong willed and beautiful standing up to danger, never afraid. finding her prince and riding off into the sunset. now people can tell me that life is not a fairy tale. and there aren't always happy endings. but i say any ending can be happy if we make it. we are writing our own real life fairy tales every day. we wake up and choose to be a princess, or a hero, or an evil queen. we have complete control. so i don't know about you but i am going to write myself a happy ending.

you are my heart.


so here's the thing. as many of you know, i enjoy writing songs. and i don't share them as often as i should. so i made a new octobers resolution to share my songs with my fabulous followers. So here is a hot off the press song especially for you bloggers. this is in the extreme rough draft phase, (ignore the few times i go flat please and thank you:)) but i figure music is an art and i should share each bit of the process with you. so i hope you enjoy. and i would most certainly love comments and feedback. love you.

one.

Wow bloggers. Its been one whole year and sixteen days since the last time I've seen my beautiful bo. This year has been an accumulation of the best and worst times in my life. If you would have asked 19 year old me if I thought I would be where I am now I would've said a big giant no. But im here. I made it. And its been hard. Harder than anything I've ever had to do. But bloggers. I love this man. With everything that I am. And it hasn't faded even with one year and 1600 miles between us. and I think it might have something to do with the fact that I gave him part of my heart to take with him to Texas. And everyday I can feel him smiling and being one hundred and ten percent the man that God knows he can be. I am ever so proud to say that I am in love with a missionary. And though our romance is put temporarily on hold I know without a shadow of a doubt it will all be worth it. Te amo mi Corazon. Para la eternidad. 

bloggers... Don't give up on good things. They are worth waiting for.

absolutely.

we are so absolutely small. tiny in the universe. it is absolutely mind blowing to even begin to fathom.

we are here. earth. home sweet home. we are tiny unrecognizable specs on this word. sleeping, or brushing our teeth, or rushing to work. how many of us even realize that there is so much more to life than us.





now we move up. lets see if you can remember the order of the planets from elementary school... hmmm. my very excellent mother just served us nine... oh wait. pluto isn't even a planet anymore. my very excellent mother just served us... noodles. we look even smaller than before. you can't even see any definition of countries or hardly even see our clouds. we are just part of one small orb light years away from everything else.
out we go again... and we are a galaxy. and you can't even see our lovely sun that tans our skin in the summer time. we become insignificantly lost in a sea of other stars.
just when you thought we couldn't get any smaller. we found the virgo cluster. believe it or not our milkyway is not even one of the more prominent galaxies. we are just a tiny white spec that looks like any other star in the night sky.

ever since i started my astronomy class i have grown such a large appreciation for just how special we are. i have a body i breathe air, i have a sun that warms my skin and an earth that has changes in weather. i am utterly and absolutely speechless. we are so small yet we have technology and emotions and tiny cells that work to keep us alive

we are the universe and the universe is us.


we are so irreversibly connected. and that is amazing to me. absolutely amazing.
