Now when I say the words “attractive woman,” what comes to your mind first? Beautiful hair, perfect butt, nice boobs, sexy lips? You went physical on me, didn’t you? You thought of physical attraction first, rather than the other type…

I am writing just my mind out. All the perspectives I have so far regarding love, marriage and falling in love. I don’t think so that falling in love is an easy task. You put so much energy into it. Whether it be your emotions, your time, your effort , even your money. Falling in love…

I think that as women, we are being taught about consent (when we’re being taught at all) in only one way : the consent that we choose to give or not. Because of the way power dynamics are often shaped, and this idea in our society that men want sex anyway and it’s just a matter of convincing women, two things are missing : 1) women aren’t expected…

A guide to loving me
If you want to fall in love with me, there’s a few things I should tell you.
You need to know these things…trust me.
from OUR BEST LIFE TOGETHER (releasing March 6)
Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The Lord has done great things for them.” Psalm 126:2
The smallness of me even smaller.
It is happening..and it is about satisfaction and ache.

Today I was scheduled to do a photo shoot. Specifically, a boudoir shoot. I’ve never done one before. I had no idea if I’d like it. It wasn’t for anyone or any occasion, it was just because. Maybe mostly because I feel more in love with my body, and more in my body, then I ever have and I loved the idea of…
This world is surrounded by so much evil, but through it we are reminded of the good, the love and the grace.
Falling in love can be a tragedy or a master piece if you let it happen naturally.

One interesting thing.

So recently I tried a new online dating site. I’m really liking it, I find I connect more easily with the matches I receive because there’s more than just physical compatibility.
I love my partner.

I don’t know if I can easily find the right words to make the point of this story. There’s something about taking care of a creature (human or otherwise) with special needs that brings out the best in you and others.
So… moving on from where we left off.
Let’s take one step deeper and try to see the difference between heart and mind.
everything you wrote is so very true… and the fact that most people tend not to see things the way you do ( they do attach themselves to, or “fall in love”- not with an actual person, but to their idea of who and what that person is- and will be- thus, robbing themselves of the chance to actually get to know their partner)
I SO wish more men got this.
When I tried to explain the #1 option to a good friend right before his bachelor party, he looked at me blankly, as if I were speaking a foreign language. Then he acted like, “Of course…” though he had clearly never thought this way before.
Watch sunsets and eat a raw lime .
Feel the ocean and preserve the life ,
That you keep in those hands almost frail and electric .
Forces bound to love and crash at the speed of light .

Love is just like our house keys: they are never at the place we expect them to be.

dear you,
i almost forgot how to breathe when our common friend mentioned your name over dinner the other day. i wasn’t prepared for the stinging that had followed and the itchiness of wanting to know more about what you’ve been up to. the only fact that kept me from wanting to know more is that, probably everything you do…
Would you have left me just as easily
Had I been your habit of smoking
Would you have made resolutions not to come back
And failed every single time
Would it then have made a difference to you

Family can be toxic.
Dear Dad,
It has been well over three years since I have even seen you. Over four years of us actually having a conversation and there is just so much I want to say. So much hatred. So many questions.
Deep are the oceans,
And far is the sky.
Both don’t spare emotions,
That let you cry.
Shadows are deceiving,

The small violence done to me by your face, your body, the scent of you when you come too close. I’m there again, your bed, enveloped in that queer scent. Musky, an almost sour bluntness to it, and your body over mine, covering me. Your hair was longer than mine then, and I…

I love to have fun but when I am overwhelmed with duties, I tend to put fun to one side and pick up ‘complain’.
The more responsibilities you have, the less opportunities you have to be spontaneous. To have some kind of working order with home, work and church life I need consistency and stability.
It can be deceiving. It can grind you up, hurt you, make you into a monster and destroy the world forever.
And it can save a life. It can change your mind.

He’s hope trespassing on the blue veined tracks on her arm. She kisses him and explores sunny adventure speeding down steep hills. Her eyes open and he kisses them closed. One for each brown blink.
