About Me



i'm amanda, and i'm a misshape, mistake, misfit, untamed mishap with a junkie heart.
I fell in love again all things go, all things go.

maybe we're not supposed to be happy. maybe gratitude has nothing to do with joy. maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. appreciating small victories. admiring the struggle it takes simply to be human. maybe we're thankful for the familiar things we know and maybe we're thankful for the things we'll never know. at the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate.

love is all you need.

Our lives are geared mainly to deflect the darts thrown at us by the laws of probability.  The moment we're able, we insulate ourselves from random acts of hate and destruction. it's always been ...
