"the only love you get to keep is the love you give away"

it's been a long time. i even opted for a name change. i haven't really felt much like blogging, but a lot has been on my mind. I have come to terms with my leaving philly, even though i'm fully sure if im ready/ i have my friends in atlanta (carin, briana, treneisha, shawn..etc) waiting for me, and not to mention my family but nothing will be the same as my philly pham. I'm def going to miss tanya (my best friend) when im gone, she'll be all the way in ny. my granny aka mom mom who is funny as hell, my crazyy brothers that i love like my own and everyone else. 

i found that qoute on the back of my great-grandfather's obituary today at the funeral home. 

I think it's true. the only love that we ever get to hold onto forever, dwell on and bask in, is the love that we show and give to others. i've come to realize that loving others the way we should love ourselves and our family is the best way to love. i can't think of anything else i'd rather do, than to show my love :)
