I always found comfort in putting my feelings into words, and that's especially the case when writing a letter for my beloved. In quiet moments when I just be, my heart is spilt and allowing my soul to pour; a somewhat quiet confession of love, gratitude, and longing.
Everyone has their own love language(es) and one of mine has to be gift giving, my boyfriend being the same as me. So while he indulges in giving with the use of money, I indulge in being more vulnerable with ink and paper.
Spritzing perfume, leaving kiss marks, adding doodles down to making the envelope is all the more to make the letter customized. Personal touches, if you will.
Within my attempts to be heartfelt I hope he can hold a piece of myself in his hands.

💌admire the things that maybe only someone that has been with you all of your life could possibly notice, the mysticism of your ideal morning, the care you‘ve put towards your dreams and hopes, the bald spot in your leg hair where you had a bike accident..
get some espresso stains and wrinkles on it and kiss it closed maybe even a wax seal ..

my girlfriend and i are long distance, so we got matching notebooks to keep a journal of our writings for/about each other that we plan to give the other once they’re full. i’ve found it to be an extremely fulfilling practice, we’re creating an archive of our love.

I think that their story is overshadowed by other greek love (if you can even call some that) stories like Orpheus and Eurydice, Hades and Persephone, and Aphrodite and Adonis. I analyzed this piece for my art class in the first semester of junior year and am still working on it for a study; it's cool actually how something that takes seconds to admire can take hours to gain insight. Greek myths I think prove that there's a bit of human in everyone; forgiveness and redemption, power and betrayal, love and hate.

Whenever I pass by a pair of baby shoes at the store I wonder what my life will be like ten years from now. Funny that it sounds bizarre to love something that doesn't exist yet I am enamored with my future children.
I like to think that maybe love is there, just in the unborn.
Loving someone is never a waste, and the thought of loving him for the rest of my life definitely gives me the drive to work hard; if it means that my back will ache as I hunch over my desk to illustrate or animate I will bear through it with a smile. I really want to pursue art, it makes me happy and I have so many ideas.
Maybe one day I'll meet with my highschool best friend, and we will sit and chat for hours at a café. She will tell me the trajectory of her life while I show her my current work in progress and explain that love did prevail. I'll tell her about my engineer who works hard, and the two little darlings, all of which occupy my heart.
There's an idea that you shouldn't expect things to happen because life is a roller-coaster, yet I know I can accomplish my dreams with time. You shouldn't be afraid of dying, you should be afraid of not living. Why live in fear when you only live once?
