Hello, you. June’s theme will be LONGING. Unlike more-acute forms of desire like desperation or need, longing is a sweet ache—more pining for something than dying for it. It’s nostalgia, homesickness, boredom, a persistent feeling of lack, dreaming of escape/the future. It’s summer: summer homes & cottages, stuffy summer bedrooms, sun-bleached memories of summers past. The shadow of September that hangs over June. It’s secret hangouts, crushes, unrequited love. Send what you’ve got here, and thanks. ♥

Log in to replyHere Comes The Sun is the most played song on my ipod! I listened to it all last summer in the hope that it would work like a reverse rain dance and the sun would come out.
Log in to reply(It didn’t really work; I suppose even the Beatles can’t control nature. But I live in hope).
When I heard out the Diana Ross song, I didn’t really think it could really be about coming out as being an LGBT, but then I started listening to the lyrics, and they make so much sense!
The song is so great! It really made me think that maybe I should take the big step and really come out.
You’re changing lives, Rookie!
