As I'm sitting here tonight listening to two songs on repeat--
"Dancing away with my heart." By:Lady Antebellum.
"Hollywood's not America." By:Ferras.
---Many thoughts are running through my head. Many dreams are being brought to my mind of things I've wanted over the years. As well as a desire to get up & just start walking, with no planned destination, that is what is lurking in my mind tonight.
I want to make a list tonight--enjoy, my lovelies.
1. I want to move. Get out of this town & start fresh, explore all the possibilities God has in store for me, somewhere, far out there, I know there is something for me.
2. Pet a penguin.
3. Buy a lottery ticket.
4. ride a horse on the beach.
5. Take his last name.
6. Have a summer romance.
7. Put a message in a bottle & then toss it in the ocean.
8. pick up a hitch-hiker.
9. Have flowers delivered to me by a special someone.
10. Hearing my cat sneeze is literally the cutest thing....ever.
11. I just bought 3 pairs of Tom's--call me crazy but, Happy Graduation present to me!
12. Have someone care as much as I do.
13. explore every part of Ireland.
14. Be in New York for the Thanksgiving Day Parade.
15. Eat a croissant at a bakery in Paris.
16. Be remembered for something great.
17. Lay in the road in the middle of the night.
18. Spend the night at an Aquarium.
19. learn how to tie a tie.
20. build a blanket fort & spend all day in it.
---Some days writing is the only answer to all my questions. Writing helps where my words fail. Even if it's simple things like writing out quirky things I'd love to someday accomplish in my life. It's me, it's who I want to become. Who I'm going to create & explore. --I'm moving, I'm making that leap & saying 'goodbye' to a lot. Sometimes the only thing that is left to do is give up. You can only try at something for so long & then it's no longer worth it. It's time for me to explore new horizons & leaps & bounds of my future.
This road is leading somewhere, I know that. Somewhere crazy & radical. Somewhere that is going to help me find my place, my home. It may be in the middle of Italy or in the middle of a street in the dead of no where. --Only God knows my journey & the place I'll finally land & call home. Until then, I continue to write. I continue to let you hear my heart...I want you to know what it sounds like from the inside.
Grace.
