there is one thing i hate
that i can't eat all the ice cream i want
that i live so far away from so many people i dearly dearly love
that some books are too long and some aren't long enough
the fact that airplane tickets cost so much
also the fact that i can't flap my arms and fly
that i have laughing fits randomly
knowing that winter always comes again
and also there are things i love
that i can eat ice cream often
that i have people that i love so dearly near
that books are books no matter what
yeah airplane tickets aren't cheap if they were nobody would value them as much
that i can't flap my arms and fly that would be weird
the fact that i do laugh a lot
and knowing that summer will also always come again
you see
it isn't really about the thing or how you feel about it
it's about how you look at it
----------------------------------
btw, I'm entirely apologizing for this post ahead of time. I am on paint fumes (i did the bathroom (was in there all day) BUT YES I AM REALLY REALLY HAPPY WITH HOW IT TURNED OUT AH #chalkedpaint)

WHAT IS YOUR PERSPECTIVE?
That was so beautiful. I needed this. There are some things coming up that I have to do, but they are really quite awful. I need to remember that I have more good thing happening right now, than bad. Thank you Julia!

ohh really?! Those are the hardest. I'll be praying for you. <3 Yes yes yes..truth there!
DeleteAww, thank you!
DeleteWow, perspective changes everything. That was so good, Julia. And all the best with camp NaNo (licorice sounds like great way to get started)! :)
ReplyDeleteDoesn't it?! Idk why but I'm obsessed with it..and writing poems about perspective! aww <333 thanks girl! (and mmmm yesss)
DeleteThat was so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with Camp Nano!

Delete*moans and remembers I should write*
Yes yes yes! I have thought about this before but you basically unscrambled my thoughts and put them into words.
ReplyDelete*looks at my own scrambled thoughts* DONT KNOW HOW I DID IT XD
DeleteNo, I've never tried chalk paint before but I've definitely considered it for hand lettering. ;D
ReplyDeleteI loved those words -- they were so true (as always) and very thought-provoking. I always tell people that it's all a matter of perspective, so I guess I have a pretty broad one. *shrugs*
Camp Nano!! You can DO IT GIRLIE!!

Deleteoh wow, thanks girlie!! Perspective is so important - like so so important.

ReplyDelete*sobs* I AM WAYYYY TOO FAR AWAY. uhg. uhg. uhg. BUT BRO YOU ARE RIGHT. Our friendship is goals and everyone is green with envy *smirks* GAHH THANKS <33333
DeleteThose plane tickets are really very expensive though... *looks sadly at the costs and then at all the amazing people in America* BUT AT LEAST I CAN STILL TALK TO PEOPLE OVER THE INTERNET. *nods firmly* That is very cool.
ReplyDeletedude, I totally know. *feels sad* BUT YOU ARE RIGHT EEEEP it works somehow xD

ReplyDeleteYou always make me stop and think, you know.
It's good to have someone do that every once in a while. *winks*
<33
Deletehonestly LaKaysha girl <33 you are the sweetest
and, yes I know XP
I've never tried chalked paint, but your painting looks amazing! You're incredible. <3 <3 Oh, man, it's SO easy to see things in a bad way when you could see the exact same situation in a good way (wonderful poem, by the way). :) Thanks for reminding me! I had a quick question. I posted a comment on your last post, but it never showed up. It could be just me because I tried posting a comment on Sarah's blog too, but it never showed up there either. So, I'm not really sure... Anyways, good luck with Camp Nano! You're braver than I am (I'm not even doing it this month.) Actually, I've never done it. *sheepish grin* Hopefully someday though. :)
ReplyDeleteYou should!! awwww gosh girl :P OHH okay see I didn't publish a few comments from that previous post bc I didn't have time yet --- BUT I JUST DID LOL! Sometimes we do that bc if we publish them, we forget to reply and don't wanna do that :P Thanks for commenting and asking tho!! AND HAHAH IM NOT BRAVE I AM CRAZY :P
DeleteOh, no problem. I didn't want to make a big deal about it. Sorry if I did. :) I was hoping it hadn't happened to anyone else. Sorry for being impatient lol. Thanks for explaining, and thanks for your reply! :)
