dream consciously.

colleen - connecticut - 22 going on 35 i love reading, writing, rock climbing, and drinking smoothies. i lost my dad on june 10, 2012 and that taught me a couple things. one. the cliche- you never know how long you have on this earth, or how long anyone else does for that matter, so live every moment like it's your last. say what you feel, say what you mean. love with all your heart. do what makes you happy. two. how much i truly love and needed him. three. despite that, life will go on, and i will make it. because i'm strong. because he made me that way. on september 8, 2011, i officially entered into a relationship with the only man i've ever loved, and the only one i ever will. he's my rock; i wouldn't have been able to get through a lot of the hard times without him. he's kind, intelligent, hard-working, understanding, passionate, handsome, funny, and a million other things. most importantly, he's exactly what i want and exactly what i need. lastly, my friends are the absolute fucking best.
