Never a Goodbye

Nothing is what is seems. You have expectations and you get disappointed. You make plans and get redirected. You ponder every detail. What outfit you’ll wear? What you’ll say? Where you’ll be? You play a scenario over in your mind a hundred times. But, when the time comes, the details don’t matter. It will happen... Continue Reading →

Take a Chance…

on me. Can’t you just give in? Can’t you just this once allow all your walls to fall and collapse into the possibility that something wonderful can happen? Will you give yourself permission to act with temporary foolishness and fall for someone who loves you unconditionally? Will you allow yourself to love me with everything... Continue Reading →

Live Backwards

If only we could live our lives backwards. We’d be prepared for the unknowns. We’d be smart enough to have all the answers. We’d always know which turn would lead us to exactly where we want to be. We’d know when not to leave. And we’d know when to love a little harder, hug a... Continue Reading →

Everything has Purpose

“I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you can appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.”~...

Time & Space

Time – the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole. Space – a continuous area or expanse which is free, available, or unoccupied.

Love

Love is easy, beautiful, peaceful, and fulfilling. But despite all the lovely adjectives, I fear love. I pull away as a way of protecting my heart. It’s easier that way. The pain of rejection is too much to endure. And be vulnerable? No thanks! But something felt different; I felt different. I don’t know when... Continue Reading →

The Online “Life”

In real life, the only time I’ve ever been to L.A. was when I got the chance with the marching band to play tuba in the Rose Parade. Online I live in Malibu. I posed for Calvin Klein; I’ve been in GQ. I’m single and rich. And I got a set of six pack abs... Continue Reading →
