love of god, overflow.

do you think this feeling could last forever.

heart break is the worst pain one could ever experience.

if you have ever experienced a pain that makes it hard to breath at times, listen to this song and watch the video. so good.

i had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded

someone told me to watch this video because it was really good. now, i want you to watch this video, because its really good.

well i didnt want to leave then. without you.

and i will give up this fight.

i wish i kept up with this better. i feel like the time i used to spend on blogs (mine as well as reading others) are now spent on pinterest!

to continue my latest tradition of posted music, i have posted justin vernon's (lover of my soul) rendition of the great bonnie raitt's "i cant make you love me".

the first time i heard this song, i was in elementary school in my aunt's car listening to the soft rock station in atlanta. she was singing along with such emotion. i had no other option but to really listen to the words and understand why my aunt was getting "lost" in a song. she had just ended things with her boyfriend at the time, so it made sense that she got emotional.

as an eleven year old, i immediately felt the words of the song as well. the boy i had a crush on in children's church didn't seem to pay me any attention. to a girl on the brink of adolescence, this was the end of my world. i realized in my aunt's white camry that you just can't make someone like you. i wish i could say that ten + years later, i have started to comprehend that! i guess we always want what we can't have...

"i cant make you love me if you don't. you can't make your heart feel something it won't..."

just so you know i was thinking of you.

i am literally listening to this on repeat.

i will call you up and wake you from your sleep.

when you get this message
i'll be high above the earth
thinking 'bout the promises that i keep
when i touch down in texas
land in dallas/fort worth
i will call you up
and wake you from your sleep
i will not let go of you
who or what controls
the fates of men i cannot say
but i keep arriving safely home to you
and i humbly acknowledge
that i won't always get my way
but darling death
will have to pry my fingers loose
cause i will not let go of you

-david bazan

to remind you that you shouldn't.

she is singing me to sleep tonight.

i hope you like her as well.

love could hardly leave the moon with your heart.

i need to remember these things.

baby, i have no story to be told.

another new obsession...

check me out!

past and present, they don't matter now. the future's sorted out.

i watched somewhere, a sophia coppola film tonight. (i love her.) now, i am laying in the dark in my bed listening to contemplative music and examining my life whilst looking at peoples facebook pages thinking their lives look so much better. pictures can be deceiving- i know this... but still, its hard to not compare. do you ever look at others and think about how much cooler than you they are...

in a similar vein, i encourage you to watch the movie. it was essentially an "interpretive" portrait of a really sad person who should "have it all."

whatever that means...

magical things are happening in the world.

good morning.

i like to call it fate.

i have a new obsession.

seriously.

all i want to do is make digital mixes and put them on this site.

but saying it out loud is hard. so i won't say it at all.

sometimes, i have an album for months before i really listen to it. this may be because i usually hate everything new at first (this concept goes even deeper, but i will keep the nature of this blog light). as of recent, i have been listening to sufjan's newest album- a lot. it is so good. it reminds me so much of my favorite, seven swans.

anyway.

i'm obsessed with this song. it is beautiful and heart wrenching all at the same time.

enjoy.

its a hollywood summer.

i am still wearing a coat and i carry an umbrella with me everyday.

all i can do is wait for better weather.

no guilt in life. no fear in death.

there in the ground His body lay
light of the world by darkness slain
then bursting forth in glorious day
up from the grave He rose again
and as He stands in victory
sin's curse has lost its grip on me
for I am His and He is mine
bought with the precious blood of Christ.

isn't it a little too late for this.

take all your reasons and take them away

to the middle of nowhere, and on your way home throw from your window your record collection they all run together and never make sense but that's how we like it, and that's all we want something to cry for, and something to hunt.

you know you have a permanent piece of my medium-sized american heart.

if you had only come around again then i...

two things:

1.

2.

i'm obsessed.

so... i think i am literally in love with ryan gosling. literally.

i hope it's going to make you notice.

i haven't done one of these in a while... enjoy... if anyone is even reading this anymore...
