the way i see it # 76

i have been having starbucks coffee a whole lot ever since 2009 came
around.
maybe because my boss had a sudden addiction to it or it's just that the
weather is geting colder.
but when i went out to have some during friday the 13th; it was my first
time to notice the 'the way i see it' stuff on the back of the cup.

somehow #76 by Anne Morriss hit me as a valentine's day entry.


The irony of commitment is that it's deeply liberating-in work, in play, in
love. The act frees you from the tyranny of your internal critic, from the
fear that likes to dress itself up and parade around as rational hesitation.
To commit is to remove your head as the barrier to your life.
the liberating feeling of being able to really show yourself to someone that you know for sure would never reject you is the reason why everyone looks for "the one". in the process though, we often forget that first and foremost, God has already given us that- our family. in the course of wanting to be able to live in certain standards that our community upholds, driving us to want and acquire, and then want more, makes us forget and ignore the important things in life, just not be able to see our family as people that we could share everything with.

hope y'all had a happy heart's day.
