La La Land - I know he’s not perfect, but he tries so hard for...

“ I know he’s not perfect, but he tries so hard for me. And I thank God that he isn’t, cause how boring would that be? It’s the little imperfections, it’s the sudden change in plans. When he misreads the directions, and we’re lost but holding hands. Yeah, I live for little moments like that. When he steals my heart again and doesn’t even know it. Yeah, I live for little moments like that. ”

About me

“Maybe later I’ll be too busy to sit under trees and watch the sky change from blue to gold to lavender to velvety darkness; maybe I won’t have time to appreciate the beauty of the bark I’m leaning on, the grass I’m sitting on, the man my head rests on. But heaven forbid I ever forget how I love these things, how I love the intertwining of our hands and the way time has paused while we rest here before our lives take off and we stand to meet the world together. If I live to the day this tree dies I will never forget how we sat beneath it and listened to summer sounds in between soft breaths of wind and our quiet breathing. Sometimes happiness is loud and raucous, but now it’s the calm chirp of crickets and the call of a lone owl that speak to me: I am in love and I cannot express how happy I am because of it, because of him.”
