As I drift into my deep sleep thinking of outrageous adventures, and the possibility of things being or becoming . To think that I'm part of something bigger than life and grow into magical miracles makes me feel as if the whole world was an unknown place; which in other ways is. Feeling as if the world was old news, at times its feels like I've seen it, experienced it before, making me wonder about reencarnation and the possibility of having a passed life! It might sound crazy to believe such things but you can never know whats out there, that has been here before. &amp;nbsp;To think that you could be a fairies raptured child, or a leprecauns son! Maybe you passed life has been a greek noble person, or in a poets life as I have to to think. What if your life was someone else's but yours at the same time. Thoughts roams through my mind asking me if I could have been the muse of Francesco Pretarch, Laura De Noves, that married woman who he wished was a virgin, un married and free for him to see, falling in love on Good Friday! What if after over 600 years they will finally meet in me and my Love? What if I am her present life showing the love she felt herself and denied! all because her heart was locked up by a fixed marriage since birth for noble peoples cause? what if we are to end unfiinished business we left on passed lives, waiting to finally finish the puzzle for our magical worlds! to have that miracle and have our adventures! and finally then reach the heavens! When our deeds are done and our souls are free. Maybe our lives are something bigger! maybe we are more. Just maybe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5866275210424265470-1292058605959560674?l=craftingbeauty.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftingbeauty.blogspot.com/feeds/1292058605959560674/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://craftingbeauty.blogspot.com/2011/11/what-if.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5866275210424265470/posts/default/1292058605959560674'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5866275210424265470/posts/default/1292058605959560674'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftingbeauty.blogspot.com/2011/11/what-if.html' title='What if...'/><author><name>Laura Favela</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06907436703088555471</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Q4O7i-JgKcU/TjyC7cEAU8I/AAAAAAAAAAc/LES030UXfDs/s220/227960_182896978428989_100001260650747_496562_339383_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5866275210424265470.post-8623288689042708143</id><published>2011-09-04T13:37:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2011-09-04T13:37:22.656-07:00</updated><title type='text'>What they say.</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;

What could happen? If one little taste could come to addiction? and what it &amp;nbsp;causes? I have come to think of it as this poem I wrote during sophomore year, the first time I touched alcohol more than willing to take a sip.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;You walk like an animal&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;You linger on our wall&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Opening your arms to the world&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Allowing us to fall.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;You break people apart&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;You dont seem to care&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Walking around destroying&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;The little things we share.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Your sweet poison in our blood&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Killing the warmth, turning us cold&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Making the weak vow to you&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="line-height: 1.5em;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Tempting us, our souls are sold.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5866275210424265470-1789514892048955959?l=craftingbeauty.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://craftingbeauty.blogspot.com/feeds/1789514892048955959/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://craftingbeauty.blogspot.com/2011/08/addiction.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5866275210424265470/posts/default/1789514892048955959'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5866275210424265470/posts/default/1789514892048955959'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://craftingbeauty.blogspot.com/2011/08/addiction.html' title='Addiction'/><author><name>Laura Favela</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06907436703088555471</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='21' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Q4O7i-JgKcU/TjyC7cEAU8I/AAAAAAAAAAc/LES030UXfDs/s220/227960_182896978428989_100001260650747_496562_339383_n.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5866275210424265470.post-1694123477716916537</id><published>2011-08-05T17:10:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-05T17:19:13.384-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Lady in the Green Dress</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white;

I believe this can be achieved by showing who you are and who you want to be, by sharing the beauty of it. Like this poem.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span
