Fernweh

Fernweh: (noun, org. German) a crave for travel. Homesick for a place you've never been.

Right now, that place is France. I need to be in France. But since that isn't quite in the cards for me at the moment, here's what is:
A road trip with my friend Santi :) him and I are going somewhere Tuesday. Where? We won't know until Monday night. It's just going to be us and our cameras somewhere else where neither of us have been (hopefully). We will probably be taking the train and leaving just for the day, but we are so excited. I'm excited to travel with someone new. I'm excited to get out of this town even just for a day, it'll be a lovely breath of fresh air.

Also, I am so excited for a brand new year :)

You make me think

Sylvia Plath once said, “So many people are shut up tight inside themselves like boxes, yet they would open up, unfolding quite wonderfully, if only you were interested in them.”
It’s wonderful really, knowing how significant this is for me right now. I am a very reserved person. I feel so strongly about countless things, but I keep it inside. Then someone comes along and typically, I don’t want to open up. I’m afraid of my own emotions. But here we are and what am I doing? Trusting you with my own truth. Why? You ask. You’re intrigued. You aren’t judging me in any way whatsoever. It’s a phenomenal security to not be judged. To have you accept and relate to my answers. To have someone on the same wavelength.

I'll talk to you forever. I can't wait for Tuesday :)

Consuming thoughts.

One day. That's all it took.
Regardless of what my future holds, I now have a much more positive outlook on what’s to come my way. All because of one day. I don’t know, it’s just weird. I have talked to so many people and I’ve never had anyone open my mind so much. I’ve never experienced someone reading me so well and knowing my personality down to the last detail in the best light in such little time.

Usually stuff like this doesn’t really phase me. I typically don’t like to think about the fact that I’m admired or the reasons why I would be, but this one’s different.

And like I said, regardless of what my future holds my outlook is different and so much more positive now.. because at least I know now that there are people out there like you.
I'm so happy that I've met you.
