I was at church today,
attending mass when suddenly I thought about having our wedding there. I know I’ve only been there for a few times, since my family and I just moved here, but I didn’t really care. I sat there looking around, observing the little details — the ceiling, the lights, the walls and windows — and trying to imagine what we would look like standing in front of not all these people...
Love- the infatuation kind- ‘he’s so handsome, she’s so beautiful’- that can...

What was the very best moment of your day?
01/30/2011:
Today’s one of those days where I feel something is wrong but don’t know what it is. It probably is the sum of all I’ve been feeling, mostly bottled in, from the changes that have happened for the past few months.
Some days would just really be like this, I guess. I wake up as if feeling nothing, and it feels wrong. Then I try to get by through the day until it gets...

Letter to a Young Novelist
somewhereoverthesunnovel:
You don’t learn love from listening to people who have loved telling you what to do and not do. You lay in bed with a person and do or not do things. You spend time in the nooks and crannies of who they are. One person at a time you decide what you love in people.
You don’t learn to write from the didactic (if well meaning) advice of teachers. If you want words to grab...

This.
Plus her. ‘Cause she knows how to smile at the camera now. I don’t know how, but I point the camera at her and she starts smiling! :D

Why do people break up when they still love each other?
Sometimes, love is just not enough. Sometimes, it can’t hold the relationship together anymore because it hurts too much. We all know that you can’t avoid being hurt in a loving relationship. But sometimes, like I said, it’s just too much to bear, too overwhelming—that even if you give it your best shot, you both still...
Barbara Walters: Your father and two of your siblings were killed in a car accident.
Stephen Colbert: In a plane crash actually.
Walters: Plane crash. And your amazing mother raised you all, nine kids. How did she do it?
Stephen Colbert: She had a very strong faith. She taught us to still love life and not be bitter. And to realize that everybody suffers, and if you can accept your suffering, then you can just understand people better. And strangely enough, you have to be grateful for pain.
She said it was beautiful to be loved, and that it made everything on earth look...

What was the very best moment of your day?

It’s getting kinda hard to think of a best moment. But so far it’s made me more mindful of each day.
So, my very best moment for today would be.. munching on that Cheetos while watching American Idol.
P.S. I have enabled the reply so you can share your best moment, too. I might actually enable it for every post from now on. So feel free to do so ;)
