"your life is an occasion. rise to it."
I'm Chels. I'm sure there's a lot to know, but I don't have much to tell.
The best advice I've ever gotten was from a drunk guy who told me, "Chels, people are always going to want to give you advice. The best thing for you to do is not to follow, or ignore it, but to listen, and then decide what you want to do. Who cares what the fuck everyone else thinks, what do you need to do?"
I obviously listened.
To really know me, you have to know where I've been in life, and how badly I've hurt. My greatest desire is for someone to get to know me, and my greatest fear is being forgotten. I'm not afraid of getting hurt anymore, just who will hurt me. I'm not worried about who I'll be in the end, just worried about who I'll become in the meantime.
I need someone who makes me want to be a better person. I need someone who makes me want to be happy again. I need someone who helps me to see the side of life that I have long since forgotten existed. I need someone who needs me as badly as I need them.

if you're ever lying on a beach with
80 billion grains of sand beneath you,
700 thousand ocean waves before you,
60 million stars stretched out above you,
and you're still not impressed,
i want you to think about this:
the light you see reflecting from those stars
is over one million years old.
WOW
but then, just before you start to feel like a mere blimp
in the gigantic scheme of things, please remember this:
yes, you are small, but you are also
irreplaceable.
and invaluable.
and miraculous.
those stars don't have anything on you

i carry your heart with me(i carry it in
my heart)
i am never without it(anywhere i go you go,my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)
i fear no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)
i want no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
