hi ! it's been forever. again. i'm sorry. i don't know how many people read here regularly, but for the people sitting by their computers or phones, just waiting for another dream world blog post, i'm sorry and i'm here.

lately life has been a little bit tiring. i've had a few health related issues in the last bit and issues at work and by the end of it all, i've started to feel like i might be a little too pure for this world. that sounds dramatic, and like i'm romanticizing my fragility. but to completely honest, i think i deserve to. i think everyone deserves to. we are just people. someone's child. soft, emotional and vulnerable. and there's nothing wrong with that.

i think the world throws a lot at you, and once you get to a certain age, you're expected to just take it, grow a thick skin and treat people just as coldly as they treat you. well... that could never be me. i can't be that person who looks at someone in pain, or in a position of vulnerability and attack them or turn a blind eye. it's not in my nature. at times that softness stabs me in the back but i wouldn't change it for the word. the power of something as simple as kind words or even just acceptance is so much more than people give credit to. it seems so little but it really does go a long way. and if you're able to find people in your life who share a similiar philosophy, those will probably be the deepest and most nurturing friendships you'll ever have.

i see myself and my girls (no matter how far apart we may sometimes be) as these pretty little fairies, just floating through life and sprinkling a little bit of fairy dust everywhere we go. some people try to dust it away, some people try to attack us, even shove us in a cage to be contained and scrutinized. but we just keep fluttering about, happy and soft. aware that the world is hard but refusing to become hard because of it.
