Today is the Day

    It’s a tough thing to do; to explore the world. Its an even tougher thing to explore yourself. Now before you go getting all “ junior-high” on me, and start throwing out inappropriate jokes,  hear me out. It takes a ton of strength to look inside yourself and really explore who you are and what you are truly capable of.
    Sometimes it takes an extraordinary circumstance to occur in order for people to summon up the courage to discover themselves; to unleash their potential. The circumstance could be good or bad. It could be anything from base jumping from the Burj Khalifa, navigating a treacherous river in a tiny kayak, a horrible break-up or the death of a loved one. Some people need that. Some people don’t. I encourage you to be the latter.
    I encourage you, no I challenge you to constantly look inside yourself. Every day should be an opportunity to improve in any way. Every day should be the start of something grand. You should wake up every morning and be excited because today is going to the day you discover something new about yourself. Today is going to be the day that you do something, say something, even eat something that you never thought that you could or would (unless you have a food allergy. Don’t eat that).
    It shouldn’t take an horrible circumstance to get you move. It should not take the end of the world in order for you to start discovering it. It took an almost near end to mine before I decided to find out what I was made of and what I was capable of accomplishing. As hard and impossible a task as it may seem, I implore you to try. 
    If you need to be pushed, here I am pushing you. Thank you for reading and remember: Today is the day.

I Don't Know You But I love You.

I do not yet know you but I think I love you. I do not yet know your hopes and dreams, nor do I know everything that you aspire to be. Yet, I can see it in your eyes from across this cafe. You, with those gorgeous hazel eyes are a thinker, a doer, a bright soul and a beacon of hope in a sometimes dark and unforgiving world. You've got the world at your hands and endless possibility at your perfect fingertips. There is nothing that you cannot do and heaven help anyone who tells you otherwise. I cant help but to stare. I am frozen in time. Stuck in-between my reality and all of the wonderful possibilities of us. You are more powerful than you know; I want to show you so bad.
I picture us unstoppable. A hurricane of unimaginable love spinning almost out of control changing and reshaping everything we touch. Inspiring and creating great things. We would leave our everlasting marks on this world for sure. I want you to take my hand more than anything.
I still cant move, and I swear my heart hasn't beat in what seems like a lifetime. I'm not strong enough to approach you and have hardly the strength to brush your soft brown hair from your face and kiss you.
The way you sip your coffee entrances me. Everything about you leaves me in awe. I watch you crinkle your nose, close your eyes and sneeze.
"Bless you" was all I could manage to say.
You look at me smile and say thank you and at that moment I knew. That was all it took.
I am utterly and completely in love with you and from this point on cannot possibly imagine a life without you.
I don't know you but I love you, and I want you to take my hand more than anything.
But I am not nearly strong enough...
