chapter two

have any of you read the history of love? i'm almost done reading it for the first time (of many, i'm sure) and i have dog-eared almost every page. it's so eloquent and beautiful and spends a surprisingly little amount of time on "love," but rather on "life."

at one point in the book, it says "life demanded a new language." while the pretenses of that quote are quite different from the context in which i see it, i found it profoundly moving.

i feel like i'm in transition right now. actually, less of a transition and more of a sudden, life-altering, jolting hop from one place to another. i'm leaving behind everything i've known for the past few years-- living space, job, group of friends, etc.

with this transition has come a change in attitude. i'm working on being more positive. i'm trying to see things from an objective point of veiw. i'm slowly learning how to speak to myself and others in a more positive tone.

and with these changes has come a new mindset, a new outlook, and an entirely new vocabulary.

my life is requiring a new language.



so there you have it. the history behind my new url. i know it's long, but it's perfect.





here's to a happier, healthier, more exciting time in my life, determined not by the course of events involved, but the mindset in which i live.
