Go confidently in the direction of your dreams.

Life is frittered away by detail.  Simplify.  Simplify.

-Thoreau

Let's just step back and acknowledge the fact that chocolate and caramel can be successfully combined.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that books can be re-read.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that even days you wake up with a migraine on can still be good days.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that Addy is brilliant and beautiful.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that life is brilliant and beautiful.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that tomorrow is the last school day of the year.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that while some things that you wish for, you won't get; but some things you wish for, you will.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that we are blessed.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that healthy can be delicious too.

Let's just step back and acknowledge that even though bad things happen to good people, good things happen to good people too.

Let's step back and realize we are incredible;

We are life itself;

We are beautiful and pure;

We are the actors, and all the world's a stage.

Footloose.

I hope I never get used to the smell of rain.

With a beautiful, antique, opal/diamond ring rested on my finger and the warmth of a director's praise still spread throughout me, I feel happy and content with Summer.  I've sent/received a couple letters, I've made [and spent] some money, I've seen some movies, I've sung a bit and acted a bit more, I've danced and my healing blisters didn't even crack open again, my hair is being cooperative and I'm slightly tan, I've started and finished a few amazing books... Life is good.

All my love, Laura.

P.S. I have the best friends in the world.  Yes, that includes you.

Me last year is downright depressing.

Thank the heavens I have changed so much.

Sorry you all had to know me when that went down--

I am so happy to be where I am,

I am so happy to have regained friends I thought I lost,

I am so happy to have made such a great new friend,

I am so happy I have great plans tomorrow,

I am so happy that I dance,

I am so happy that I love,

I am so happy I'm alive.

So much love,
Laura.

Because we're Awesome and We are Dancers.

Dance is the best feeling in the world.  Dance is the best thing in my life.  Without it I'd be some uninspired and fat bum.  It's the best thing when I find someone who shares the passion just as fully with me.

Love, StarFish.
