While driving with Andrea to her mom's house, we came across one of our all time fav. trees and decided to get out and hula-hoop under it.

Afterwards we proceeded on towards her mothers and couldn't wait to share with everyone the joys of Hula-hooping!!! It's super fun indeed!!!

Once inside the house we gathered everyone up and sat down. Andrea and I proceeded to explain the steps to Hula-Hooping.




STEP 1: Get the feel of the Hula-Hoop very important indeed. Make sure to stretch.




Step 2: Be ONE with the Hula-Hoop concentrate.














At this point they all looked at us and said "are you CRAZY?!!!"






We just looked at each other, then at them and said "Well Duh!!!" then began to laugh.

After that, everyone kinda' got up reeeallly slowly and (i guess well..... ran away??) Andrea and I were feeling sad. All we wanted to do was share with them what had made us happy.










So as we lay there sad and confused......



We decided to say "Fuck It!!!" And sat up to think of what we could do to make us happier.
All of a sudden, it had occurred to me.........










we didn't NEED to have everyone Hula-Hoop to make them happy. We just needed to do what made us happy.


So both of us got up, ran outside and began to Hula-Hoop as the sun came down on the earth.

LOVE

Love is:
Being their friend......(even when everyone else has turned their back on them)

Never having to say you're sorry.....(The person has already forgiven you)

Giving and Not expecting anything in return...(I'll scratch your back even if you don't scratch mine)

Always being there for them..... (3:00am and they need someone to pick them up from the bar/ person's house they're feeling uncomfortable at /middle of nowhere and they're just plain lost/etc.......... and you're the only one who answered and live 45min. away)

Helping them out when they need some.....(Physically or Mentally)

Stopping everything to be there for them, in their time of need and comforting ....(even if you haven't seen them in years)

Lending them a shoulder to cry on/an ear to listen/or some arms to hold them .......(especially when they can't seem to compose themselves and feel like nobody understands them.)

Giving advice.....(even when you know they're not going to like it nor want to listen)

Using your sleeve to wipe their runny nose,sobbing eyes, and quivering lips......(Garden State helped me out w/ this one)

Sharing the last piece of cheesecake......(and you're both starving w/a sweet tooth)

Giving them a hug........(and explaining to them that sometimes people NEED one and they are receiving it.....no need to GIVE one back)
*Thanks 4 clearing that one up for me Andrea*

Sticking with it......(love is like learning how to Hula-Hoop you don't just give up because you think you look like a fool, oh no....you get someone else to look like a fool with you) hahahaha

*Two fools are better than one.....at least you have someone to laugh with*
For if the world had no fools....everyone would be too afraid to try.

"IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED TRY TRY AGAIN"

It's admitting to your faults, weaknesses, insecurities,and mistakes, and believing in your strengths,passions,hopes,and dreams. Honoring and understanding both sides..........Even when everyone else is telling you you're wrong. They just might be scared and confused and don't want people to hate and judge them.

*Being true to yourself*
"Be yourself....for if you can't be then who will?"
"Be an individual that's the best way to be"

"Love is like a boomerang....sometimes it comes back to you and sometimes a DINGO runs off with it and breaks it in two....maybe he just wanted to share his love with you."


Love, Alice
P.S.
"Sharing is Caring........It can be fun!"
Thanks for letting me share with you today.

Jim a.k.a JIMBO

My friend from high school died on Monday, (He unfortunately took his own life.) He's one of those people that likes everyone for who they are. He never judged anyone. I didn't know him to the extent that his other friends knew him. Although, both of us knew we had a strong acknowledgment towards each other.

Jimbo is one of the few people that understood and listened to others fully and whole hearted. As far as I'm concerned that's one of the best qualities anyone could ever have. I'm so glad I was able to know him, he is for sure NEVER going to be forgotten!

"Bloop bloop" to his spiky hair!(I'm sure i'm the only one who gets that.) Although if you do know what i'm talking about then "KUDOS" to you. He always remembered my name and you all know how fuckn' special I feel when someone remembers me. Jimbo was one of the few people that reminded me, I was worth something and that "yes" I did matter.

Jimbo rocks! He's still with us I fucking know he is. He's watching over all of us right now......and always will.
RIP Jimbo.

Love,
