I am a writer who happens to love women. I am not a lesbian who happens to write.

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I used to think the world was broken down by tribes,’ I said. ‘By Black and White. By Indian and White. But I know this isn’t true. The world is only broken into two tribes: the people who are assholes and the people who are not.
Sherman Alexie (via myquotelibrary)
Life
Shakespeare once said, “To thine own self be true.” Well I really feel the need to break it down to modern day situations and terminology. First of all, to thine own self be true should mean that you and your feelings, thoughts and emotions should come first before anything else. If they are not, you are cheating yourself and are potentially headed for emotional disaster. Secondly, how are you going to be true to yourself when you don’t even know what makes you happy anymore? And lastly, even if it repels some people and they don’t quite understand you, that is okay. As long as you know what you are doing and as long as you stay true to you, you owe no explanations. You are a grown woman who has been through much life experience and you need no one’s approval except for God’s. If anyone expects you to justify your actions, that is a key sign that they are trying to be controlling and as a grown woman, let no one control you. You are your own individual.
TODAY IS THE DAY YOU STOP…….
Today is the day you stop feeling down.
Today is the day you stop living in the past.
Today is the day you stop putting things off.
Today is the day you stop letting people use you.
Today is the day you stop feeling you’re a failure.
Today is the day you stop thinking about your ex.
Today is the day you stop putting up with nonsense.
Today is the day you stop thinking nobody wants you.
Today is the day you stop thinking you can’t do anything right.
Today is the day you STOP and the day you START fresh and new.
Sistahs of inspirational quotes
Bless your fears, your setbacks and your defeats. Bless all those who have ever told you that you could never have, could never be or could never do. Bless all those that have broken your heart and that have wounded your spirit. Bless your enemies and all those that wish you ill will. Bless all your trying circumstances. Bless all the brokenness we all feel at times. Bless those lonely, tear filled, why me nights, those nights when it just feels as if morning will never come. Bless all the times you wanted to give up but didn’t. Bless your current situation. Why bless these things? Because blessing them takes away their power and their hold over us. Rest assured that anything we bless will surely never defeat us.

It’s been a tough week again. An emotional uproar if its the only way I can express my feelings. Right now I am in tears over you. I really tried to hold onto this. You kept holding me there telling me we are okay that we can be together. Just have patience. Dha how can I have patience when my heart is breaking right now. I am going to miss you so much. I don’t have words right now because what I am feeling can’t come out now. So I can leave these words, you took away something from me I’ll never be able to give another person because I’d be to afraid to love again.
You and her betrayed me and with that I hope you will realize what you’ve done to me.
Search me [thoroughly], O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there is any wicked or hurtful way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139: 23-24

Dear Future Girlfriend: Dear Future Girlfriend
I’m writing this letter to the one I love. The one that I haven’t yet met, the one that will complete this half of me as we fit the keys to each other’s locks. This to the love of my life the one that will make me the happiest woman in the world. I’ve dream of you. I pictured you in my memory….
Singing of Love at Dawn: We believe in forever and the loops that construct the theme of...
We believe in forever and the loops that construct the theme of continuation, a curve of what can be. The distinct belief in something that constitutes forever has become an embossed tea cup or parallel planes, without binding edges. And if you turned to me and whispered, “I shall love you…
Secreted Sins: I’ll never understand you. I know this. I know this because I’ve spent...
I’ll never understand you. I know this.
I know this because I’ve spent a lifetime trying to understand myself; and, but for infrequent flashes of momentary clarity that fade more quickly than they manifest, I’ve failed miserably. I can’t hope to improve upon that record where you are concerned.
I’ll never understand you, and I accept this. In that same vein, I accept the fact that you lack the capacity to ever fully understand me.
I like writing. Besides art, my heart is with my pen. I get that quirky feeling every time writing drains me. My heart throbs when I write about him. When I write how much I like him. When I write how much I hate him. When I write how much I wished someone really cared. I write. I do not beg for sympathy or for notes or for reblogs or for promotions or for anything. But maybe if you give me some understanding, I would really, really, appreciate it.

An intellectual? Yes. And never deny it. An intellectual is someone whose mind watches itself. I like this, because I am happy to be both halves, the watcher and the watched. “Can they be brought together?” This is a practical question. We must get down to it. “I despise intelligence” really means: “I cannot bear my doubts.
