sunset and sidewalks
“A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself- and especially to feel, or not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at any moment is fine with them. That’s what real love amounts to – letting a person be what he really is.” ― Jim Morrison

and sugar we’re going down swinging
“Ubiquitous, adj. When it’s going well, the fact of it is everywhere. It’s there in the song that shuffles into your ears. It’s there in the book you’re reading. It’s there on the shelves of the store as you reach for a towel and forget about the towel. It’s there as you open the door.…

188. “I can’t go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.”
As much as I love tea parties & amazing pastries, I prefer staying out of sunlight. Unless I’m with Mad Hatter and the Cheshire Cat. “If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrary wise, what is,…
