Kaleidoscope eyes, sparkle at the world |
“Everybody has a secret world inside of them. All of the people of the world, I mean everybody. No matter how dull and boring they are on the outside, inside them they’ve all got unimaginable, magnificent, wonderful, stupid, amazing worlds. Not just one world. Hundreds of them. Thousands maybe.” — Neil Gaiman This blog is a collection of my thoughts and other wonderful things. |
Boom.
‘cuz I’m a star.
For my lovely sister ♥
So, I went shopping again. I know, right? England, what are you gonna do?!
I managed to find my way alone by bus this time. It’s great. Knowing where I’m headed, I mean.
So yes, this is my dress. It actually is starting to turn into a fashion blog more than anything else.
Possibly I’ll get around to writing down my thoughts about life as well.
I went shopping in Woking today! It was fun! I’m also considering blogging about my adventures here more. Hmm, yes, it does sound nice.
It has taken me a long time to realize this. Lifetimes, probably. Perhaps there were lifetimes where I was aware of that and when I was truly happy. I don’t care whether you believe in past lifetimes or not. I do. I can imagine I’ve done all kinds of crazy shit.
But … as much as I’ve read all kinds of quotes about happiness. As much as I’ve heard someone say that it’s just a choice to be happy. It’s just a choice to be poor. To suffer. I didn’t believe it before. Then one day I just thought to myself: “Hmm, so all this stuff is going on. Okay, cool. I choose to be happy.” And I was. It brought a smile to my face and I felt instantly lighter inside. As light as a feather.
If happiness is just a choice … everything is, really. It’s your choice whether you suffer or have a life of ease. It’s your choice to work hard or be lucky and have everything delivered to you on a silver platter. It’s your choice to be sad and waste your life away or laugh a lot and enjoy every minute of every day.
It is a fucking choice. If you try to figure it out, you’re probably still not aware of it. If you’re aware of it, you just know how it works.
If you’re reading this, you are more beautiful than the Sun, the Moon, and all the stars in heaven.

I like sunbeams and the warmth of the sun on my skin. I like caresses that make me fuzzy inside. I like the softness of a kitten against my skin. I like the smile on a stranger’s lips.
I like the wondrous look inside a kaleidoscope. I like the magic my eyes see. I like the yellow the sunflowers carry. I like the taste of apple tea on my tongue. I like the sense of the wind at night.
I like to discover how wonderful I am. I like to wave a wand and let all my troubles go. I like the eyes of no judgment. I like the laughter ringing in my ears. I like sitting on a windowsill with an open book, listening to the sound of pouring rain.
I like woolen socks warming my feet at winter. I like the breeze that makes my hair dance in the summer. I like the feeling of presence. I like the questions my mouth forms. I like to attempt speaking British English.
I like pretty dresses and twirling barefoot in the grass. I like the knowing that my dreams do come true. I like the seeds of a dandelion, dancing softly in the air.
I like it when I can’t hold back a smile. I like it when someone sees me, not just watches as I pass by. I like the difference that I be. I like the blush my cheeks carry. I like the lightness choosing for me creates. I like the things that I like.
