adventure and-love belief
Hope and belief. I'd always wanted hope, but never believed that I could have such an adventure on my own. That I could own it. And love it. But it happened.
wise long trying
Can we try to be wise with each other for a very long time?
teenage boys intention
Teenage boys cannot be trusted. Their intentions are not pure.
book way easier
Books. I'd probably spend all my time alone and lost in books if I could. It's easier that way.
communication sadness cellular
One of the failures of cellular communication is that tiredness often comes across as sadness.
sorry crazy nice
What I’m sorry about is not being a tipsy idiot when you found me. I’m sorry about that, obviously, but more sorry that my stupidity caused us to lose a great opportunity. I don’t imagine you would have met me and fallen crazy in love with me, but I would like to think that if you’d had a chance to meet me under different circumstances, something just as nice could have happened. We could have become friends.
reading believe meaning-well
We believe in the wrong things. That's what frustrates me the most. Not the lack of belief, but the belief in the wrong things. You want meaning? Well, the meanings are out there. We're just so damn good at reading them wrong.
cute mother boys
This must be part of Mother Nature's master plan—making these boys so irresistibly cute, in such a naughty way, that the purity of their intentions becomes irrelevant.
mind world want
There are just lots of possibilities in the world...I need to keep my mind open for what could happen and not decide that the world is hopeless if what I want to happen doesn't happen. Because something else great might happen in between.
girl mean handwriting
The handwriting was a girl’s. I mean, you can tell. That enchanted cursive.
demon tricky trusted
They were tricky, those demons. Could they be trusted? Of course they could be trusted. She'd created them. She owned them. They wouldn't lead her astray.
running prayer nice
Prayer or not, I want to believe that, despite all evidence to the contrary, it is possible for anyone to find that one special person. That person to spend Christmas with or grow old with or just to take a nice silly walk in Central Park with. Somebody who wouldn't judge another for the prepositions they dangle, or their run-on sentences, and who in turn wouldn't be judged for the snobbery of their language etymology inclinations.
believe want
I want to believe there is a somebody out there for me. I want to believe that I exist to be there for that somebody.
people adjectives teetotalers
I particularly loved the adjective bookish, which I found other people used about as often as ramrod or chum or teetotaler.
