wise words

Rachel was writing her favorite things list the other day...and written by it were the words, "it's hard not to be happy when you're feeling grateful."

so i started thinking bout my favorite things...and though i'm alone in my apartment, i'm perfectly content and in a sky high happy mood. you should try it. i've started this list many a times. things have been cut, things have been added. and i like that it's a list that evolves.

so, in the famous words from the sound of music, "these are a few of my favorite things!" (and you better have sung that in your head when you read it. or else you are not worthy of reading this blog):


snail mail. the wind between your finger tips on a windows down and music up summer drive. Unspoken words. Sunsets. Rings. Bracelets. necklaces. Books. Family. Genuine acts of kindness. Starry nights. Storms. Unexpected laughter. Dancing free. Open waters. Being silly. remixes. birds. Wine. Summer rain. Passion. Music. Europe. my homeboy J Crizzle (my affectionate name for Jesus). worship. karaoke. Mint chocolate chip. food in general. Porters and stouts. travel. Puppy warmth. bucket lists. When eyes meet for the first time. The world through a lense. Pumpkin. Hittin the gym. All things chill. mixes. picnics. baby animals. acoustic. Mango peach. Rustic. Uninhibited 90s music impromptu dance parties. Cloves. Barefoot. Moments. The sun’s warmth on my skin. Sentiment. Common ground. Handwriting. Comfortable silences. 

im a fighter...

 when i need to be
and i'll fight like hell

in an earlier blogpost i talked about the fighting spirit of the vera cruz. well, my mortera side's got some too. my uncle's been in and out of the hospital as of late. and though he is in terrible pain, he keeps assuring us that he is fine because it is nothing compared to what our Lord went through on the cross. i'm so proud to come from 2 strong and faithful families.

mmmm summer rain

methinks...tis the season for blogging and youtube videos again...what say you. hmmmmm?
