The most important rebellion happens in the mind, when you realize you are free to be absolutely anyone you want to be

Laughing at yourself is healing. Don't get so caught up in in hard days that you lose that piece of yourself. It'll save your ass

One more forever, one more time feeling my heart race & getting drunk on the sound of a laugh, one more time. But depth is rare. It's a night here, a weekend there, using, taking. Obsessed with what you can get from someone, not what you can build with them, treating hearts like they're disposable, throwing away people the second someone new slides in. An honest, loyal, faithful, passionate connection, it feels like a fairy tale. So I'm sifting through ashes of a world on fire looking for a gem left in the rubble. Hoping to find a kindred soul who'll adore my silly quirks & value my old fashioned heart, so I can show her she's not the only one lost in the fog of a world hell bent on self indulgence disguised as love

Off on a roadtrip with my daughter. Making memories & enjoying some sunshine. All day part of me kept thinking I'd do it all again. Being a father has been the greatest joy in life

The midnight moon & the music, having a conversation about finding a little warmth out there somewhere

It's been way too long. I barely remember touch. Endless hours, the late nights & early mornings, the sacrifice it takes to get ahead, I look around & it's just me standing here. I made it. But in the meantime love slowly became a distant memory

Touch is so important.

Eyes that convince you of all things.

Paint on our hands as we color the night.

Some people restore your faith in humanity simply by being kind when they had every reason not to be.

Some people are lessons. Some people are chapters. And then there’s that rare soul that feels like the whole damn book.

Happiness isn't a person, it comes from inside. I'd rather tell someone I have a good life with good things, but you make my world brighter in a way that no one else ever could & I don't want to spend a day without your light

Gratitude is the key. If all you do is complain without ever taking a few minutes to appreciate something you do have you're gonna be miserable. And no one on god's earth will be able to change it

What he said! You only know what someone shows you. We are all multifacated.

Guess if you haven't fucked a thing or two up you can't say you're really alive

Just when I think I'm hot shit life has a way of knocking back down a peg. Kudos karma, you ingenious bastard

Many people are more than you see. More talents, more interests, more amazing qualities. We've conditioned ourselves to think we know someone in these little posts that are only a sliver of the human behind the words

It’s easy to admire someone’s success and forget there was a time when they had no idea what they were doing either. Everyone you look up to had a first attempt. A messy beginning. A moment where they were learning as they went. Don’t let the fear of being bad at something stop you from becoming good at it.

Just because you want something more, that doesn't mean you're not happy with what you have, you just know you need more. That's fine. You can still be happy while you're searching for it

Time's just flying man, there's so much I have left to do. So many memories, experiences, they're still out there waiting. And the hope they'll include a heart that feels like home
