On L-O-V-E.

“I don’t try to pre-plan love, or guide it. I’m open to being loved. I want to be loved. I want to embrace it. I don’t want to fight love because I’m scared. I’m here, with open arms, allowing it to flow my way.

I know it’s love when I am swept off of my feet. I get tunnel vision. I love hard because I have always wanted love in my life.”

On Surrender.

“When I think of surrender, I think of acceptance. I’ve come to the realization that just because I surrender, it doesn’t mean that I gave up or gave in. I’m accepting what is in front of me. My life as we speak is in the “surrender” phase. I feel like I am being pushed up against a wall to accept where I am in life, on every level, and I have to act on it in real time.”
