The one

You are the one.

The one I can run to when I’m feeling all sorts of anything. The one I can act a complete fool with and not feel judged. The one I can talk about my dreams and life long goals with. The one I can take adventures with and make memories for a lifetime. The one I can call at 3a.m because I had a nightmare or to simply hear your voice. The one I can take pictures with (silly or not) because you know photography is one of my favorite things. The one I can just look at and admire how handsome you are OR the one I catch staring at me when I glance over to look at you. The one that can communicate with me by just staring into each other’s eyes. The one that shows me passion, boundless and everlasting love; even if it’s just a text saying how much you love me.

You are the one I have wanted all along and to be able to call you mine gives me the most amazing feeling in the world. To know that my lover is my best friend means everything to me and to know that we both want to share our lives together makes it even more worthwhile. We’ve already been through a lot and always keep moving forward and continue to love each other. And that’s the beauty of love…. To surpass any obstacles that may come our way and to continue loving unconditionally. Every second we spend together, I truly cherish.

Thank you for being you, making me feel so special and for giving me your friendship and your supportive, sarcastic, happy, understanding, pure and sweet love.

I love you forever.

Emotions

It’s okay to be nervous about speaking your mind, but do not hold back on saying what you are thinking or feeling by mistaking it to being too sensitive or emotional.

Especially if it’s a relationship or has to do with a person you care about tons; the other person should thank you and respect what you’re feeling. I guess I’m bringing this up because I just got out of my Community Conflict Resolution class and talked about mediation and how hearing each other out when in a conflict is super important EVEN IF you don’t think the conflict is a big deal. When someone fully opens up to you, they are selling a little bit of their soul to you because they confide in you and trust that you will appreciate them speaking their mind on what or how they are feeling. Being too emotional or sensitive is usually looked down upon because people think it is a sign of being weak, but if you truly care for someone or about a relationship then why the hell not be completely honest with them? A relationship between two people is never going to be perfect (trust and believe that now if you think otherwise) and that’s the beauty of it. There is such beauty in solving small or big conflicts and moving along with life because it shows how much love and care is put into the relationship by the two people (or a group of people). Showing emotion is a sign of strength because you are letting another individual (or group of people) into your heart and brain and it is not always easy to do so. If the other person thinks you are weak for being too sensitive or emotional, than that person doesn’t deserve all of your time, etc.

So own it. Own being outspoken and honest about how you feel when it comes to your loved ones or a special relationship with someone. Love fully or don’t love at all is how I look at it. This ties back to my other post “Love so Hard” in the sense of fully loving my significant other and how the little things mean the most to me. I can honestly say that I am a victim of “having a big heart” and sharing my thoughts and feelings with him because I would not be able to hold something back from him. He knows that I care and if you’re reading this right now Jake, I love you more than life xo

Happy Thoughts to all you readers 🙂

Life

Something has gotten into me. Something great. I call it “Hardcore Happiness” I’ve always said “You can’t live a positive life with a negative mind,” which is true.

Okay, so I’ll tell you the truth… I’ve been dealing with this health issue that I am not 100% okay with talking about it openly yet, but I’m learning to deal with it and telling myself that everything is going to be okay. Yes, I get super anxious at times and I don’t really know what to expect because as of now I am playing the waiting game and not sure what it could turn into. I also begin to feel overwhelmed at times, but you know what? If I just sit here and worry all day, I won’t really enjoy the “NOW” — for this very reason it’s why I am not a huge fan about talking about it all the time. Though I may be dealing with this, I’m not dealing with it alone and I love my family, close friends and boyfriend for being there for me when I needed them and how they continue to be a great support system. XO Words cannot express how much I love them.

It’s all about enjoying your loved ones and being kind to everyone. You never know who may have it worse than you do. Some people take for granted of what and who they have in their life which blows my mind. I am fortunate enough to have such great people in my life who love and care about me. It’s all the little things that you may not notice which mean a lot… at least to me they do.

For example:
“Good Morning”
“How was your day?”
“Be careful”
“Text me when you get home so I know you’re safe”
“Sweet dreams”
“How are you?”
“I hope you’re feeling better”
“Have a good day today!”
“I miss you”
“Good night”…
“Can you come over?”
“Can I come over?”
“Can I see you?”
“Can I call you?”
“You’re beautiful”
“Want something to drink?”
“Watch your step”
“Let’s watch a movie”
“What are you up to?”
“How is your day so far?”
“It will be okay”
“I’m here for you”
“Do you need anything?”
“Are you hungry?”
“I just wanted to hear your voice”
“You just made my day”

You don’t have to hear “I Love You” to know that someone does. Listen carefully. People speak from the heart more often than you think
I hope this post makes you realize how precious life is and to pay close attention to those around you. Quit bashing what you hate, promote what you love and keep it moving people; life doesn’t stop for anyone.

Until next time,
Dee

Blogging

I write for me and I post on here for myself. I am not a professional writer in any shape or form, but blogging for me is like a get away. I don’t know who actually reads or let alone enjoy my blog posts and I am not saying that I don’t care; I sincerely appreciate if you do take the time to read, like or comment on my posts. It means the world to me. Just know that with every blog post, there is a special piece of me that is being shared with you all even if it’s a silly post.  Anywho, have a wonderful day to whoever is reading this at this very moment. You are beautiful and special in your own way.

xoxo, Dee

You.

The best kind of relationships begin unexpectedly. When you get the astonished feeling and everything happens so suddenly. That’s why you don’t look for love. It comes to you just at the right time; the time you never thought it would.

Michael Sam

Michael Sam

There’s so much talk going on about Michael Sam and him being openly gay. I don’t see why this is such a huge deal. Reading this article didn’t make me feel too easy about this whole situation.

The hottest selling rookie jersey in the NFL is Johnny Manziel’s. The second best-selling is Sam’s. It turns out NFL fans can’t wait to buy — and presumably wear — the jersey of a gay man. Who would have predicted that?

The jersey of a gay man…. Sam is human, you know. It’s not like something is drastically wrong with him. So what if people want to wear his jersey. I guess I am just happy that Sam is being open about his identity going on with his life, but what bothers me is how some people react to his situation or any other LGBTQ issues. I was also watching the news when I was on break not too long ago and they were talking about Sam being drafted and “The Kiss” (he kissed his partner and it’s on video). I am pretty sure if it was heterosexual couple showing any type of affection, then it would not be such a huge deal. I feel like social issues like these should be talked about considering that most people do not like talking about it and simply brush it off. It is part of our culture and our society. But I do have to admit that I am glad Michael Sam is being viewed as a positive and influential role model for those who struggle with “coming out” etc… What do you all think?

5 more days

Until graduation!!!! I still cannot believe it. This has been a goal and dream of mine since I was younger.  And I’ll be the first to graduate from college in my family which means a lot. My family is super proud of everything I have accomplished thus far and I too am proud and thankful for this accomplishment. This is just the beginning to a new chapter in my life and i can’t wait to see what the future has in store for me!  I’ll make sure to post pictures from graduation,  etc.

Bare

I’m one to love make up, but having my face completely bare and to still have him look me in my eyes and tell me I’m pretty.. makes my heart smile.

Views

Considering I made this blog not too long ago, I just want to say thank you to those who actually read my posts. That is all.

Relieved

Alright, I am officially done with finals as an undergraduate student and it is the best feeling!!! This week has been so hectic for me, but it’s all done and over with. I can’t believe I am graduating from my university next Saturday.  Time is flying by and my dreams are slowly, but surely becoming reality! I wouldn’t have made it this far if it wasn’t for my amazing family and close friends. I’ve been surrounded with such great energy by family, best friends and boyfriend; I wouldn’t trade them for the world. I am super thankful for everything and everyone that has helped me along the way.
If any of you out there are taking finals or just stressing over something, look back and think of all the good things/people in your life. Some people may have it worst and sometimes we take things for granted. In life, we are usually tested and if it wasn’t a blessing then it was a lesson. Don’t let anyone rain on your parade, strive to be amazing and remember that you can’t live a positive life with a negative mind.
Next Saturday will be such a huge accomplishment… I’ll keep you posted! 🙂
