Diversity is the norm.

So I went on a little vacation and visited my best friend, Adelle, in Indiana. Man, I was so overwhelmed with the love that surrounds that girl over there. Not only does she have great friendships, but those friendships have grown into a family-like circle. At one point, we were all out and I just sat back and appreciated everyone for being so wonderful to not only Adelle but to me as well; the love, concern, warmth, respect, and laughter.

I literally am getting teary eyed typing this. I love my friends so much, like a lot. To know that my dearest friend Adelle is being taken such good care of by such fabulous people makes my heart so extremely happy. I needed this vacation so bad. I needed to relax and get away but then I got here and learned that love is something that is indescribable; it's not forced. I was surrounded by so much love that I didn't even know how to react to it and in return, without any effort, I loved back.

I always knew that I was capable of loving, especially those that I knew for a long time but I've learned to just love; love strangers, old friends, young children, older folk, and so on.

I know, i'm such an emotional and mushy girl. I just love love.

I want to thank everyone in Indiana for welcoming me with open arms and for showing me how beautiful everyone is individually. Until we meet again, xo.
