FROM ME TO YOU

Letters are so beautiful. It’s sad that they hardly exist nowadays.
Sweet letter Jim Morrison wrote to his mother when he was 10 years old. (letters can be found, amongst other documents, in The Jim Morrison Scrapbook)
Dear Mother,
As Easter rolls around each year, I think of how you have helped me face all the many hardships in my life. I only wish I could put on paper how much I appreciate the help and love you have given me through my life.
From Marilyn Monroe to Joe Dimaggio (The letter is featured in the book, MM-Personal: From the Private Archive of Marilyn Monroe )
Dear Joe,
If I can only succeed in making you happy — I will have succeeded in the bigest and most difficult thing there is — that is to make onepersoncompletelyhappy. Your happiness means my happiness.

The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows is the cure for those of us who sometimes find ourselves trying to come up with an exquisite word to label an unusual feeling, place, situation, etc.

IT’S ONE OF THOSE DAYS
April 25, 2011 § Leave a comment
It’s one of those days. One of those days when you wake up crying. When you need silence. When you’re sensitive about everything.When you walk in the streets alone and don’t know where you’re going. You think about your life in general, think about your friends, the one you love, the ‘moments’ in life. And then, you start questioning everything; anything. Your brain starts to hurt a bit because you think about so many things at the same time. And it makes you want silence a bit more.When you feel like watching old movies the whole day.When you turn off your phone and don’t want to talk to anyone because they just won’t understand your mood.
It’s a good day, a bit melancholic but still good. It makes you alive, inspired and most importantly, it makes you feel.

Sometimes we need random imagery to remind us things.
1.Buy something, anything, with a navajo print on it.
2. Don’t forget that every day is a new day. As cheesy as it may sound, it is indeed true.
4. Hmm.. Collect bottles? Visit Portobello Market? Recycle? Have a glass of wine?
5. Try to make the most of the things you see around you. Definitely! And start taking more photos.
7. Moms make our lives easier..but learn to do your own laundry!
