I thought you were just an app that I could find fun things to try to improve my lifestyle; but, you've turned in to so much more, and you need to be thanked. Thank you for the things you do. Whether it's your cat, dog, goat and horse gifs or the pugs in party hats. Thank you for allowing me to waste time pinning adorable outfits and accessories while I sit on the couch in my sweat pants, t-shirt, and no make-up. Thank you for your awesome and creative DIY activities that I will admire and probably never fulfill unless I'm procrastinating real work. Thank you for your art pieces that are pretty to look at and I'm only pinning because I've been pinning all day, so what's one more pin? Thank you for the awesome pools, staircases, and hidden passage ways that I dream of putting in my house, but won't ever spend the money to achieve. Thank you for the Doctor Who edits, Supernatural gifs, all the possible ways Sherlock survived the fall off of the building (three years ago), and even the Harry Potter edits that I've seen 40 times, yet still enjoy. Thank you for the princess cosplay and Disney stories that make me long for a trip to Disney. Thank you for the beautiful hair styles that I will never be able to achieve, but pin in hopes that one day I'll get a creative bone in my body or meet someone who will make my hair presentable. Thank you for the hilarious stories and edits that people make to make fun of the people of Wal-Mart or themselves. Thank you for the exercise pins that I will never try because they look hard and I'm too tired. Thank you for the beautiful pictures of tropical islands and resorts that I wish I had the time and money to travel to. But most importantly, thank you for allowing me to waste my time and procrastinate.

Thanks always,

The Pinner with over 3.5 pins.

Now I've been taking a poll the past couple of weeks on the hunt for the true definition of love.

Many people have mixed definitions of love.

Some said things as simple as "Looking past flaws and loving them anyways", while others were much more thought proving.

I believe love is something so heart encompassing that it's hard to give it a true definition.

"Love is not a feeling, It's a verb. It's an absolute unyielding decision to never quit. No matter how much you want to quit, you don't leave them. Love is giving your life."

You may be wondering, "Why is she telling me about love?"

Well, many minors these days are very quick to decide that they are in love. They could be dating the person for as short as one month or as long as three years. It really doesn't matter how long you date that person. I know someone who dated for six months and decided that she would never want to be with anyone else, so she married him and now has a child. She's as happy as she could be.

Unfortunately, it's not always that easy. Life is full of heartbreak. Minors are so driven by lust and longing that they conclude that they are in love with their partner very casually.

I know why though. People are so obsessed with movies and songs that idolize unwed actions and passion driven things, so minors believe that love is a physically achieved noun; unfortunately that's why the world is not traditional in the dating world anymore.

Sadly, love is dramatized in the real world. I love Breakfast at Tiffany's and The Notebook as much as the next girl, but love is so much deeper and life consuming than a movie could even capture; which is probably why we're saying this:

Where are the traditional men that make love easier? Well they're out there.

In conclusion, love is giving your life, so think before you give your all to someone.

Also, what do you think love is? Do you disagree with me? Let me know. I'd love to hear your definition of love!

The Fourth of July

AKA let's see how many fireworks we can release without setting trees on fire.

I actually LOVE the fourth of July.

Who doesn't love a day full of freedom and coming together.

You get to eat, shoot fireworks, swim, and celebrate with friends. Does it get much better?

Seriously though, the fourth of July is a day completely devoted to our veterans and everyone who has made America what it is today.

Thank you veterans; and, God bless America!
