Anonymous asked: whats your view on suicide?
I work for the nonprofit organization To Write Love on Her Arms and one of our main focuses is on suicide prevention. I believe that things can be hard and that in those moments it can look or feel like suicide is the only option. I think suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. I lost my friend Charlie to suicide and I’ve met...

You called me this afternoon. I told you I was snowed in for another night. You said you’d call me after your men’s group ended around 9 p.m. and would stop by.
I hung up and didn’t hold my breath for 9 and your call to come. I knew that 9 p.m. would surely happen, but you calling would not. As expected, you were consistent.
I am okay with you not calling tonight. I have been...

Anonymous asked: Do you have any special Christmas traditions? Do you enjoy decorating?
Since I’ve been kind of living all over the map for the past five years I don’t really have any traditions that I’ve practiced. Growing up we did. We always got the decorations out and put up the tree after Thanksgiving. On Christmas Eve we’d open all our presents and the next day go...

Hey everyone! So as I’m sitting on my couch watching this awesome Austin City Limits video, I wanted to express my gratitude towards all of the people I have met, or have been apart of my life in the last 25 years. Whether you were a passer by that just said you like the tunes, or someone closer…

I guess you could call it a promise ring, although I usually don’t. I never take it off my left hand where so many other promises usually are displayed. It’s one of the best and also simplest things I’ve ever bought for myself, and it’s close to being one of the most significant things I now…

Oh God, please don’t tell me this has been in vain I need answers for what all the waiting I’ve done means. You kill me, you’ve got some nerve, but can’t face your mistakes. I know what I should do, but I just can’t turn away.
thank you:
for getting my hopes up. for making me think tonight would be fun like we used to have before things got hard. for being forty-five minutes late picking me up resulting in missing part of the game. for being hungover when I only get to see you three times a year.
Is this a graveyard To bury her heart? Or is it a garden, Where new life will start. ‘Cause God, when life here ends, We’ll beg you for more. In temper we’ll hate you, But please keep no score. Life, it is a mess we wake up to, A single thread of a deeper truth.

all of the times that i heard you sing out i’d hope there were parts there for me i’d sing all the notes that stay out of your way we can let all those melodies free
i think i was meant for an uglier time my harmony’s all out of tune let the verse slide over let the chorus in

Thanksgiving
John: You made a fake pie? My Aunt Carol: No, I didn’t. Robbie (holding up a pie box): Well then, who’s Sara Lee?
John and Robbie are my cousins and their mom is my Aunt Carol. The boys are absolutely hilarious and whenever I’m around them I’m constantly laughing. I love my family so much.

“i wish i was better at these days. The days where the whole family comes over and you hug and smile and catch up on what the year has been. i wish i was better at being present. i’m tempted to say that i wish i was better at being happy. That has been one of the great mysteries for me and perhaps you can relate. And it’s not that i don’t have plenty to be happy about....

Do not believe someone the first time they tell you exactly who they are. Look for them to show you. And when they tell you they are something different than what you’ve seen, do not be quick to believe it. People generally stay the same and are usually exactly what they have shown you. Believe in actions, not words.
One day: You aren’t going to effect me like you do. It won’t matter if you didn’t call. Or that you didn’t show up when I needed you to. My heart won’t skip beats when you talk about us exploring the world together. Your imaginary plans about our future will stop mattering to me. They are only empty words after all. You canceling on something I was excited for...
