Dreaming. Achieving. Loving.Tumblr (3.0; @melissariska)http://melissariska.tumblr.com/“And once the storm is over you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, in fact, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.”<br/><br/> - <em>Haruki Murakami, <em>Kafka on the Shore</em> (via <a href="http://enderkay.tumblr.com">enderkay</a>)</em>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/12737763542http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/12737763542Sun, 13 Nov 2011 09:33:42 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lulsdxZrYq1qiymuxo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>11-11-11</p> <p>Dream come true</p>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/12737725005http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/12737725005Sun, 13 Nov 2011 09:32:20 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmucpfF7hg1ql5p6ko1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://localfoodaddiction.tumblr.com/post/6557636082">localfoodaddiction</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Heirloom tomatoes from swallowtail farm.</p> </blockquote>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6656233186http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6656233186Sat, 18 Jun 2011 11:10:54 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmhkb76yTB1qiww8xo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6510960854http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6510960854Mon, 13 Jun 2011 23:36:12 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lioapf9gIL1qfxorro1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6453734441http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6453734441Sun, 12 Jun 2011 10:53:37 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_leiq3taDxT1qdjgwko1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6453720717http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6453720717Sun, 12 Jun 2011 10:53:05 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_llz0c4Vmzv1qzagi0o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6394072291http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6394072291Fri, 10 Jun 2011 16:30:41 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmfxeaUxSa1qa2c7do1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6367337753http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6367337753Thu, 09 Jun 2011 19:52:40 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmibutXb7R1qa944oo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>i want to go here</p>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6367251058http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6367251058Thu, 09 Jun 2011 19:49:51 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lm2irvAqWt1qzhk0jo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6047804821http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/6047804821Tue, 31 May 2011 17:27:43 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_llv2li6qGV1qzhk0jo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://freddiekrueger.tumblr.com/post/5899271632">freddiekrueger</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Tim Burton for MOMA.

But it&#8217;s real and it keeps your heart beating and it keeps you wanting more. Love gives you a bright light of hope in your heart and a black hole of mystery in your mind. Sometimes love doesn&#8217;t make sense, but it&#8217;s worth it. It always is.</p>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/5068106764http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/5068106764Sat, 30 Apr 2011 08:49:46 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lkams6aRBI1qgcdk3o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/5054476260http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/5054476260Fri, 29 Apr 2011 20:04:36 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lkbpsxpICG1qf2ajzo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://mermaidswineglass.tumblr.com/post/4988900136"></a></p> <blockquote> </blockquote>http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/4993804141http://melissariska.tumblr.com/post/4993804141Wed, 27 Apr 2011 17:42:28 -0400
