That day in history...

Aug 12, 2007 19:07

I amaze myself sometimes. I had forgotten how poetic I used to be.

I've spent the last three hours scrolling through journal entries belonging to me, my friends, and my boyfriend. It's relaxing to me to read about real people.

Needless to say, I was reading one of Adam's old entries and I wondered to myself what I was doing that very same day in history. So I went through my archives and I found this; it is sad, but beautiful.

I need lobster and sunshine, The Hacienda and American Chop Suey. I need a camera, an empty book, and a friggin' ahhhsome hug. One that will knock my socks off and assure me that life will get better.

Call your mom. Drink blueberry tea. Laugh. Dance when you think no one is looking. Sing your heart out at a red light. Plant a seed and watch it grow. Talk to someone you don't know. Write a note and leave it on someone's windshield. Take five minutes to tell yourself how lovely you really are. Look at the moon before you go to sleep. Put the towels in the dryer before you get in the shower. Wear slippers in a store. Leave the ketchup in the cupboard instead of the fridge. Donate clothes you never wear. Hide a piece of chocolate in the last place you'd expect to find it. Find a pen-pal. And when you are really lonely or sad or happy or mad or whatever emotion you experience, call me; I'd love to hear from you.

You are beautiful. You are loved.
