to believe.




i want to believe that the sidewalk curb won't always feel like the edge of a cliff

i want to believe that adventure can begin in an instant

and that you can fall in love in the course of an evening

i want to believe that as we age our faces more aptly reflect the caliber of our kindness

and that it was love. even if i was alone in feeling it.

that out of all this sadness and destruction. out of all of this world turmoil, good will arise. 

i want to believe all this (whatever this is) is worth it

oh how i want to believe...




I've had nothing to say of late.


I'm sorry.

Actually, I think...I've had one thing that I haven't been able to say.

And that one thing has led to everything. 

And everything is overwhelming so now I'm grasping for anything.

And left with nothing.



But nothing is never nothing. It is always something. And something is a place to begin...





meaning? more to come..
i've been holding out.
and that's not fair.

for my mom




oh to one day have the words that give thanks enough for the life and love my mother has given me.

for now, this will have to do: 
i love you mom. i love you so much. 

happy mother's day.




ps: in case you didn't realize, 
the woman on my blog header...that's my mom.

babysitting has its perks

















yesterday, while babysitting, liam helped me make a card for my mom (and now official facebook friend) in honor of mother's day.

and then last night i got the following email from his mom:

subject: you forgot your jacket

and liam confessed before falling asleep "i love meg"



my heart swooned.
