on thursday august 18th, 2011, i changed my own life. i was resolved and clear-headed. i was strong and unafraid. i looked a situation straight in the face, and told it that i was finished. therein, i began to let go of a set of behaviors--enabling, co-dependency, negative thinking, self-doubt--that no longer aligned with my chosen path.

here's to being bold.

gathering peace of mind.

take what you like and leave the rest.

i'm applying this principle to so many things these days. and i've found that others have quite a lot to offer if i give them an air space free of judgement. we are all different, yes, but our journeys often speak the same language. for that, i'm grateful.

one...one...one...one...together.

simplicity, integrity, and impeccable construction are three things that i value in life and in accessories. love is certainly enough to sustain me, but if i had thirty-five hundred dollars just laying around, i would happily pick up that baby blue and make it mine.

mmmm.mm.

hold the milestone. make a wish. throw it into the wind.
