Presents..."A Tribute To Cole"



"posting some of my girl nicole chavers's thoughts...i know, it's about time right? i read her stuff and i feel compelled to write. and being a writer, i think that's the greatest compliment i've ever offered anyone.

a few of her words..."

"when u experience that and the warmth, security and sheer peace that comes from that - when its gone, you notice u can never recapture it...just gotta paint another version. love is couture:) one of a kind"

"i'm awake. i realize, i needed to dream another dream if i was to be happy."

"here's what I know: those we love but don't love us back the way we expect or "need" them to- its the universes way of preparing us for something better, so that when we have it, it'll be even sweeter...."

"just be open to love."

"i remember waking up on my 30th bday in a reflective and anticipatory mind set. i realized, i was in a constant state of anxiety over possible and post change that was inevitable-particularly the last 10 yrs. i had to reflect back because i wasn't able to actually be present in those moments. life isn't perfect. i reckon not many people feel like they have achieved all their goals or gotten to where they need to be. there is however a point in which one should or can become content w life. i once had very specific dreams of what family, success, and love should look like. i think i forgot to anticipate the finer details and detours. because my reality is much different, i feel...unfulfilled and ungrateful. the reality is, i did have all the things i dreamed of, they just did not happen at the time i wanted them to happen. family changes. family separates. ideals of success changes. ideals die. parents change. parents die. love changes. but love, i still don't think love dies."
