There are a lot of things I miss about Kentucky. But the one thing I miss the most right now is having someone to watch the storms roll in with, and dancing in the rain after everything calmed down. It happened almost every year. Even though I have a huge fear of thunderstorms, I never once was scared then. It’s something I always imagined myself doing with my boyfriend or husband. Just sitting there all cozy wrapped up in sweaters and each other. Watching the clouds roll together, and hearing the loud rumble of the thunder, seeing the lightening kiss the sky. A man who could do that with me was the perfect guy. No other man has done that with me; except daddy. We use to sit on the balcony of the apartment in Grayson, all curled up in lawn chair. We would make-up stories about the angels bowling. But I think I’ve just realized that I don’t need a man to help me cross that off my bucket list. To dance in the rain to the music we make on our own. Cause at the very least 56 other people have done that for me. I think that I don’t have to look any further for the perfect relationship, cause I have it, and have had it. Every single one of those people hold a piece of my heart. I just desperately wish that I had these people here to dance in the rain with me right now. Cause even if it was just for a small while my heart would be whole.
"It doesn’t make sense to call ourselves ugly, because we don’t really see ourselves. We don’t watch ourselves sleeping in bed, curled up and silent with chests rising and falling with our own rhythm. We don’t see ourselves reading a book, eyes fluttering and glowing. You don’t see yourself looking at someone with love and care inside your heart. There’s no mirror in your way when you’re laughing and smiling and happiness is leaking out of you. You would know exactly how bright and beautiful you are if you saw yourself in the moments where you are truly yourself."
