2018 Wasn't all shit

It is easy to bash, be salty, throw "shade" or sip that hatorade, it really is. It is easy to complain and easier to criticise. Obviously the world isn't a perfect place but there are moments of bliss and things not to forget. It is easy to forget about all the good in the world so here's a lovely reminder

Happy Anniversary Baby!

Today marks the 10th Anniversary of when I asked the love of my life, Nancy Brown, to be my girlfriend and she made the biggest mistake of her life. It's been a wild, exciting, curious, furious, magical and majestic journey so far.... With Marriage exactly 1 month Away. I couldn't think of anybody better to spend my downtime with. I love Nancy Brown! with all my heart.

Today, 10 years ago, an event happened that shook my foundations. This world that I had built for myself, in my heart and in my head, was shattered and destroyed. Replaced by something unknown. Going from heartache and an everchanging world to something tangible- the beginning of something static. Alls it took was one kiss and a few intimate evenings (no,not sex...) and I was hooked. Our chemistry was rewritten and recoded only to fit with eachother, both figuratively and literally and from that moment you become two parts of a whole. You know you meet the right person when they inspire you do great, meaningful and ambitious things. You know because you can feel it, you feel it because it is real, and it is real because it has always been. I gave my heart out to Nancy Brown in complete vulnerability and she reciprocated by doing the same, since then.......I havent felt alone in the universe, flying through space on a biological earthship. I just want the world to know that. I want people to know that there is a force which violates our natural order......it allows me to deny my genetic programming.... Love. Ive found it, cultivated it and it has grown into something far beyond comprehension and conception...... and thats not even the tip of how I feel...or maybe...just the tip tho wink emoticon

IMPORTANT NEWS (at least in my world)

Last night my best buddy Derek proposed to his girlfriend Dana and SHE SAID YES! I cannot, at least in words, express how excited I am about this. Here is a decent comparison though:

If them getting engaged was the N-64 and Nathan and I were the kid than that is about it. Either way it is wonderful news because they are adorable together. Like two puzzle pieces or spaghetti and meatballs...... maybe lamb and tunafish? (big daddy reference anybody?)

I wish them a lifetime of happiness and a long and fruitful experience. HUZZAH TO THEM I SAY!

OH MY!

Baloo the bear, Leo the lion, and Shere Khan the tiger were found locked in a basement undernourished and abused.

The trio were originally owned by a drug dealer who didn't  properly care for them, leading to neglect and poor health.

In 2001, Noah’s Ark Animal Sanctuary, a nonprofit that cares for animals in need, came to the rescue, and took them to Locust Grove, Georgia, where they were treated for injuries.

How Romantic: Poignant props pertaining to perpetual progressive love

On Jarrid’s blog post titled, “I’m Dating Someone Even Thought I’m Married,” he writes: “I have a confession to make. I’m dating someone even though I’m married.

When it comes to any relationship, communication and the action of constant pursuit is key. Nobody wants to be with someone who doesn’t want to pursue them whole-heartedly.
I encourage you to date your spouse, pursue them whole-heartedly, and understand that dating shouldn’t end just because you said, “I do.”

EVERYBODY DIES IN LIFE: to live in life the key is to die well....like this man

Here's the best example or turning tragedy to purpose. A way to reconcile the dead with the living. And a testament to boundless feats love will help you achieve. I have no way of researching to find out if this picture is real (in reality I do....the internet, but I don't know 'how' to go about doing that) but I have faith that selfless acts by selfless people do exist, that I've seen with my own eyes.
