Project: Liberate

About

"Liberate ... to be set free, as from oppression, confinement, or foreign control."

What do you need to be liberated from? What is holding you back from living your life to the fullest? This blog isn't going to solve all, if any, of your problems, but I can only hope that when you visit it you are reminded that there's always something interesting around every corner - as long as you look hard enough.

I am an eighteen year old female living in San Diego, California. I'm young, and like so many others my age, don't know where I'm headed quite yet. I am currently recovering from a very difficult breakup after a very long relationship with someone I called my best friend. I'm lost, I'm human, and perhaps that will make this blog random and without much direction. It's for you, it's for me, it's for anyone in the world who just wants to ... feel ... just wants to live. If there's anything you would like posted on here, or a topic you would like to see discussed, please email the address below.

P.S. The "letters" I write are a kind of personal therapy for me. This hell of a breakup I've gone through has left me in shambles. I write letters to the next person I'm going to be with, I guess so I can feel less lonely. It's silly, but it helps quite a bit. Do you have a letter? Email it to me and I'll post it.

Dear Future Love …?

I had a fantastic day. School was difficult as always, and I was forced into discussing some work with my exboyfriend, but I made it through so well. I had work after school, and came home to my first paycheck. I’ve been working hard lately and wished you were around so we could go out and celebrate. I did some shopping, and saw a fantastic movie with my best friend. I saw lots of couples around doing that Friday night thing so many of them do … but I couldn’t help but think that I don’t want what they have. It’s going to mean more.

Hope you’re safe, have a great weekend. I’ll be seeing you soon.

Dear future love …?

One of my best friends is currently in a fantastic relationship and as I went to lunch with some close friends, her, and her boyfriend I couldn’t help but wish you were around so you could’ve come with us. I added some fantastic new music to my iPod … the kind you sing along to when you’re in the car with someone you’re close to and can feel comfortable singing with and being silly. I wish you could’ve been there, met my friends, and maybe afterward we could’ve grabbed some coffee and then did some lame singing in your car. I was definitely lonely today, but overall my day ran smoothly. Where are you tonight?

Dear future love …?

I have quite a bit to do today and I already know it’s going to be a long, cloudy, lonely Tuesday. I was up all night trying to catch up and still didn’t manage to finish everything. Do you ever feel this way? As though you just can’t keep up with the rest of the world no matter how hard you try? I know I’m not going to be seeing you today … but I hope you have a good day and know that you’re in my thoughts.

Good morning, happy Tuesday. I miss you already, and I haven’t even met you.

Coffee Shop Lover?

I took a few books downtown and eventually wandered into a small coffee shop. I wasn’t sure what to order, and when I suddenly looked down from the menu into your gorgeous eyes behind those oh - so - effortlessly - cool black rimmed glasses I had no chance. I awkwardly ordered a Naked Juice and commented on the arbitrary Spanish music playing in the shop. “It’s better than the elevator music we’ve had in here for a while” you said with a smile. I sat down at an empty table and did some reading and wrote on quite a few napkins since I was without paper. I caught you looking at me quite a few times. I even asked your co - worker what your name was claiming that you looked “familiar” … “do you know him?” she asked. I shook my head and she playfully said “do you want to?” I wish I had said yes but I could only smile and look away as you moved closer to us and my red cheeks. After an hour and a half I gave up and left … were we both just awkwardly shy or were you simply not interested? I guess I’ll never know. Thanks for making my night much more interesting.

Dear future love …?

I left school early today, I had the most terrible panic attack. I can’t help but wonder when I’m going to meet you and when you’re going to be the one I call when things fall apart. Hope you’re having a great day, wherever you are.
