why i said yes

-
People think from what they see that I swoon at any new guy in my life. They are under the impression that I am always that one that is interested and trying to move faster into a relationship. While they are mistaken in their overall belief of me, they are right about some things. I admit that I will look at someone being friendly and think that they are flirting. I admit that I overuse the word "cute" and that I am a hopeless romantic. I admit to having fallen for lies in the past and believing the wrong, even learning to forget the moments that tore me to my core just because of a small romantic gesture. Nevertheless, I am no longer where I was. I have grown to look at everything before walking towards the lies and false advertising that is everywhere. This is a list of 10 reasons why I said yes to him...
  1. He looks at me in sweats with messy hair as if I was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen.
  2. He gives me strength and motivation to continue pursuing what I am passionate about.
  3. He wants to share his faith with me and allow us to both grow closer to God together.
  4. His text messages always make me smile, no matter what they say.
  5. He always tell me the truth, and reiterates it when he thinks that I don't believe him.
  6. His gestures are driven by kindness and care all of the time.
  7. He knows what to do to cheer me up, no matter how stressed I am.
  8. He sends me good morning and good night text messages, which are underrated but show that he is thinking about me.
  9. He can be in a silent room with me and make it not seem awkward and tense.
  10. He understands me better than anyone else has before; he knows my motives and often agrees with what I say and believe.

my earliest memory

-
I was three years old when my brother was born. My unwavering love for him is the first emotion that I remember feeling. After he was born, I was no longer the center of attention in my family. My first vivid memory of him wasn't him in the hospital or even at home. He wasn't depicted in my memory. However, it showed my pure love for him at the tender age of three. I was standing in the hallway outside of our rooms. It was late at night and I am pretty sure that he was already asleep. I was wired, bouncing off the walls so far into the day. My mom was there, holding a voice recorder. She taped me singing a song about my love for my brother as I danced in the small hallway. There was nothing but sheer happiness and joy all over my face. I was as pure and innocent as I would ever be in my life. I stopped singing in front of people as I grew up and I never wrote another song that I actually liked. I'm sure that I was aware that I was not good at singing, but I didn't care.

collateral beauty

-
Collateral beauty is by far my favorite phrase to always go back to. It doesn't matter what your religion is or what you look like, you can always spread beauty throughout the world. I strive to spread positivity and never tear people down, but that is just the way that I view beauty. Beauty can be portrayed as happiness and love. It can be physically describing the state of the Earth or a person. Everyone has the opportunity to share and spread their definition of beauty around where they are. Videos in which one person's good action leads others to follow can instantly inspire me. You see people doing good, whether its buying someone's drink or helping someone with a task. Why doesn't everyone follow that example? Why don't people just step out of their comfort zone and take a risk? Why can't I find a way to help someone? By taking a step back and uncovering the positivity, you can refocus your intentions and truly discover a way to be a part in the collateral
