Let the Love Out.

I am sharing this lovely quote by Harvey Milk

"Go after her. Fuck, don't sit there and wait for her to call, go after her because that's what you should do if you love someone, don't wait for them to give you a sign cause it might never come, don't let people happen to you, don't let me happen to you, or her, she's not a fucking television show or a tornado. There are people I might have loved had they gotten on the airplane or run down the street after me or called me up drunk at four in the morning because they want to tell me right now and because they cannot regret this and I always thought I'd be the only one doing crazy things for people who would never give enough of a fuck to do it back or act like idiots are be entirely vulnerable and honest and making someone fall in love with you is easy and flying 3000 miles on four days notice because you can't just sit there and do nothing and breathe into telephones is not everyone's idea of love but it is the way I can recognize it because that is what I do. Go scream it and be with her in meaningful ways because that is beautiful and that is generous and that is what loving someone is, that is raw and that is unguarded and that is all that is worth anything, really."

A little me time.

Sometimes all you need to get back on track is a little me time. Doing something all by yourself helps clear your head out. It allows you to think about stuff you have been avoiding, things which are actually important but seem trivial.
Alone time is important, whether its reading a book, listening to new music or having an alone dance party, some alone time will help you get perspective on life. Count your blessings, name them one by one, and it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

Will the pieces ever fit?

Life is a trade off.
It is a bundle of things you could of done, could have avoided or, the things that you have done. 
Either way, whatever you choose, life goes on. In retrospect, when you look at it, you wonder if the choices you made were right, if the choices you made were worth it. 
The choices you make, are trade offs, most of the time, one thing has to be given up. You can't be good at everything unless you are superman. It is possible to have it all? Is it possible to be happy and satisfied with the way you prioritise and the choices you make? 

I guess this will be discovered in time. When you look back, and you feel the dots have a pattern, when you feel like the pieces all fit together, this is will you peace, make you feel calm, but this is just brief moment of solace, because there will be another storm that will rip the pieces apart and you will be back at square one and you need to work the puzzle all over again.
