An Open Heart

I met you one night,
At a party where lady
kissed her boy,
and shared her love.

Love was in the air,
As it is in our hearts,
Every day,
and every where.

And sometimes I sit there,
thinking of life's mistakes,
Loving something,
Which I already let go...

Sometimes I fear
That I wont go back,
That my past will stay there,
and that you, will be gone forever.

But that is not true love.
Every second that I close my eyes,
I don't think, I feel.
My heart is in my mind,
And you are in my heart.

At the very moment of fear,
where we follow our heart,
and risk everything,
Something beautiful happens.

My love, you are following your heart,
You are opening yourself,
To life's most beautiful gift,
The gift of love.

Don't worry about falling,
because everyone does.

I can't tell you you won't get hurt,
I can't tell you things will work out,
But I can tell you one thing,
What you are doing is right,

You are letting yourself feel,
You are becoming vulnerable,
You are becoming beautiful,
because you are following your heart,

Don't let the outcome of the trails of love
stop you from taking them in the future.
Love is rough,
and sometimes you will reach dead ends.

But the beautiful thing is
that you opened your heart,
and let yourself feel.
Remind yourself of one thing babe,

You took that risk,
and opened your heart.
And that very action,
is as beautiful as things get,

You are the diamond
amongst the many who never dared
to open their heart, in fear of love.

=] te quiero,
qk.

Finance

A small quote I came up with as I was going to bed last night, felt it was worth sharing: Don't buy depreciating assets unless they are a necessity and if so, buy them depreciated.

The light came through, Your peaceful smile, in truth. The surreal was still at bay But I did not know what my words would convey. I heard the silence pedal, I spent the days winning medals Hoping to protect my heart By covering it with metal. I'm trying to explain these walls, The shields and simple fears, I hope they don't reflect you away, But I do not know if you can stay. I buried myself deep within Behind this thick armor My wounds had frozen As I lay there, I burned the roses. A little heat was a sweet reminder Of my burnt past The loving pleasure and pain I ran from what would always remain. So when I glanced at you in disbelief, It was hard to mutter past my walls, But you saw past them with your own, By admitting what I had never known. The vulnerabilities we touch Let us know we are loved They acknowledge our shame And let us play our game With a silly smile, I finally got the courage I finally had the nerve, To yell past my wall...

Food: Volume 2

The Food Guide: Volume 2 August marked the start of my 10th year in Atlanta, Georgia. My first 3-4 years were arguably a waste in the context of visiting places (still remember being blown away when I first ventured into Decatur), but I wanted to revisit my Food Guide now that I have frequented many locations around Atlanta and found the pockets that I really love. Before I had structured the guide from cheap to expensive, but this time I will break it down by neighborhoods, since I think that better represents Atlanta. Disclaimer, I also love beer so some of these may be bias to the beer world. I explicitly won't be mentioning breweries or bars because this would just get insanely long, but hit up Hop City, and check out every brewery in town. I particularly have been loving the atmosphere at Atlanta Brewing Co. so go check them out! Updated lightly in January 2021 to add PERC Coffee, otherwise intact so forgive if anything is stale, and another update 5/10 I removed Le Fat ...
