She loved New York because no one bothered her there like they did in Hollywood, she could put on her plain-jane clothes and no one would notice her. She loved that. So as we we’re walking down Broadway, she turns to me and says ‘Do you want to see me become her?’ I didn’t know what she meant but I just said ‘Yes’- and then I saw it. I don’t know how to explain what she did because it was so very subtle, but she turned something on within herself that was almost like magic. And suddenly cars were slowing and people were turning their heads and stopping to stare. They were recognizing that this was Marilyn Monroe as if she pulled off a mask or something, even though a second ago nobody noticed her. I had never seen anything like it before.”&lt;/em&gt; - Amy Greene, wife of Marilyn’s personal photographer Milton Greene&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://inspiredbynour.tumblr.com/post/51153069882</link><guid>http://inspiredbynour.tumblr.com/post/51153069882</guid><pubDate>Thu, 23 May 2013 11:53:21 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>I spent a sunshine humid day, and a starry night with my cocoa-eyed love. We spent the day downtown,...</title><description>&lt;p&gt;I spent a sunshine humid day, and a starry night with my cocoa-eyed love. We spent the day downtown, he always gives me sips of his beer. car rides, laughter and pop quizzes he usually gives me the answers to. We run outside our neighborhood surrounded by vivid colors and big trees. He picks white flower petals, placing them into my hair. The air is fresh and crisp and I can breathe. I am comfortable makeup-less, hair messy. he makes me feel dizzy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We drive with hands locked together, sometimes we stop in new cafes for dinner. I tangle my legs around his, secretly under the table and keep reaching my hand across the space between us. Our eyes speak words without moving our mouths, and I tell him I love him. It&amp;#8217;s been thirteen months;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We&amp;#8217;ve talked about living by the ocean, our absurd dreams and our future goals- my worries and past let-downs are thrown from my tattered heart, into his calming hands and soul. We drive home and end up in bed watching movies. sometimes i&amp;#8217;ll wake up in the middle of the night and just kiss his chin. I kiss him until I exhaust myself. To think if our paths had never crossed. How my life would be? It wouldn&amp;#8217;t. I wouldn&amp;#8217;t be me. I wouldn&amp;#8217;t be here.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The little ant raced off again in the opposite direction.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I looked back to the cloudless clear sky again. Then back to the ants. And I wondered, &amp;#8220;do ants look up?&amp;#8221; &amp;#8221;What do they see?&amp;#8221; &amp;#8221;Do they see me? &amp;#8230;Or am I too big for comprehension?&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://inspiredbynour.tumblr.com/post/48282243675</link><guid>http://inspiredbynour.tumblr.com/post/48282243675</guid><pubDate>Thu, 18 Apr 2013 11:50:11 -0400</pubDate><category>thoughts</category></item><item><title>I sang down the dark streets of Houston today.
