there are things that need to be said
words left floating in the air
words of love, lasting and true
of broken promises
and last chances…..
there are things that need to be said
words like
I love you much
much too much
but sometimes love isn’t enough
one’s heart turns cold
boundaries appear
and things are left unsaid

One of my friends recently opened up an Etsy shop, PracticalPendants, where she sells pendant necklaces with a wide variety of choices. Ranging from The Fault in Our Stars pendant matching necklace (my favorite) (you also need one if you’ve been just as obsessed with Augustus Waters as I have) or Disney character pendants, the necklaces are completely customizable. Make sure to look through the other options and to check out her shop if you are interested!

“The most maddening thing about love is that you don’t choose who you fall for. Yeah, you might have a “type” or prefer certain characteristics, but when it comes down to it, you can never fully decide who you end up giving your heart out to. It could be anyone. And the craziest thing is, there are a million other people it could have been; somebody richer, somebody taller, somebody more trustworthy, somebody with different eyes, somebody more ambitious. But none of that matters because those people and all of their qualities don’t and won’t add up to the person you really care about, despite the things they might not have or might not be. I’ve recently found that someone I know is and has all of those amazing things up there in red, but they’re all just that - things. It doesn’t matter to me that he may be smarter or more honest or even better looking, because he’s not him. He’s not who I want, and it infuriates me. But that’s just love. “The only wild card”. So, go ahead and ask yourself; “What is it about the person I love that makes me love them over everyone else?” What can you find? Or what do you not know?”

I recently found out about
the Arawwwak Project
It’s a wesbite for all those who are interested in Antigua/Barbuda and its history & it was created for and by the Antiguan/Barbudan community.
“The photographs, documents, papers, video, and sound files that make up the collection come…
Caribbean people are a sexually conflicted group — from ultra-conservative members of the elite upholding ‘standards,’ to those who fight for their right to express themselves. Sources of this tension? The rigidity of Caribbean class hierarchies, the influence of fundamentalist religious rhetoric, and the perpetuation of cultural stereotypes, be they of the hyper-virile black male or the Latin woman caught in the “virgin-whore dichotomy.

Like all the men who came before, he says he never wanted
to love on fire, never saw anyone burn alive
on purpose before. He says you are too intense, wild,
unforgiving.
Like sleeping among the stars,
you are hydrogen
exploding in his arms: frightening
and beautiful.
And no one can love a Supernova for long,
not even the sky.
