Live

"I love it back home. I love where I'm
from. I love everything about this life --
even the getting hurt, because there's
so much you learn. It's all part of it.
So, when you set out know
that's where the compass is pointing:
to the truth .. that you should get waist
deep and feel all of it, savor every moment,
the bitter and the sweet, cause in all of
that -- that's where your life is."

Sure is a Crazy Ride

I was never any good at goodbye. Actually im quite awkward when it comes to saying that word. I hate endings, no matter how bad the experiences were. Life has a funny way about that. It seems that everything has a perfect order, like even the slightest detail is just right. Some days you think things couldn 't go more wrong and then 10 years later you realize how perfect they really turned out. So I guess goodbye is just one of those things in lifes crazy plan for us. It's something we all have no choice but to accept. In time I guess Iv'e realized why we have goodbyes, they are merely just a salutation to meet again. Nothing is ever forever, no matter how final you think it is. Your goodbyes always start a new beginning and you always take a little bit of the past with you everytime you move forward. It's a little gift that you can keep with you forever. No experience is ever bad, it's just one more piece to the jigsaw puzzle of craziness. As I'm getting older, I am realizing this more and more everyday. I am no longer saying goodbye, I am saying hello to the new adventure. And so it is.

Testing Yourself

Why are we all scared of things we cannot control? Fear is something that everyone feels at one point in there life. A lot of the time we are fearful of things that we can't change. I know this first hand figuring I have some of the most irrational fears out there. I dont think a giant epedermic needle is going to sneak attack me and stab me anytime soon. I am constantly worrying about things that are out of my hands. I worry that I will never fall in love or that I will never be able to have kids. Things that I ultimatley cannot control. Why waste time on the unknown? I am so frequently trying to dodge heartache and rejection like the freakin plague. Why am I wasting precious time worrying? I guess in order to find the things I desire, you have to test yourself. Without that, you will never truely discover who you are. I guess a little rejection never hurt anyone. There are chances that I am so scared to take, things that come so easily to others. In order to conquer the fear of what we do not know, you have to dive into your fear head first. Sometimes the water might be cold at first, but you'll get used to it. Tommorrow is a new day, a new day full of new surprises and opportunities. Tommorrow I will take a risk; I will test myself. Who knows, maybe we will all get what we want if we just let life take it's course, let fate step in. We will see wont we...

"because it's only when your tested that you discover who you are and its only when your tested that you discover who you can be, the person that you want to be does exist somewhere on the other side of hardwork and faith and belief that beyond the heartache and fear that life has"

Make Your Heart Drop and Come Alive

Too many people in this world have lost there spirit. They have lost that little something that makes them tick, what keeps them going day to day. That fire and spark for living. Me, my spirit is well alive. Those who know me are well aware of this, sometimes they probably wish my spirit would just shut the hell up. I guess this is a gift and a curse. I am so enthusiastic about things that I probably can be annoying as hell. The amazing thing about spirit is that no one can ever rob you of it. No one is ever going to mug you and be like "give me your spirit". It just doesnt work like that. Thats the greatest thing about it, its controlled by you. Spirit is all in how you use it. My Nana, she is 78 years old, with a prosthetic knee, coke bottle glasses and a family that is absolutely freakin insane, and she has the most zest for life out of anyone I have ever met. She has had so many things pitted against her, and she just wont lose her spirit. When you have something that alive deep inside of you, how could you not live life everyday with a smile on your face. Spirit is something people feel right away, it is an energy that so strong no one can push it away.(though some will try really hard and with great force) No matter where I go in life, fame or not, married or alone, I will always carry my spirit along with me. It will never leave you and will never let you down so take chances, make mistakes and live for the moments that make you feel alive.

"Your spirit is unlike any other,its alive and full of life. It can give you wings, wings of a thousand angels carrying you from your darkest depths of sorrow to the light of another tommorrow, you have to much spirit to be anything but happy, so smile and the world will smile along with you."- Anonymous

The Little Things In Life

So I’m back on my quest for finding something worth doing in this world. Something worth seeing. I see people all day running around in a hurry, honking and yelling and talking on there cell phones. Believe me, I’ve been there. I’ve been one of those people, in such a hurry to get somewhere quick or get something done faster than the next person. I get it, we all have got things that we have to do in our daily life, but would it kill ya to stop and look around for a minute. Take a look at the fortune in life for just being alive, being able to sit outside and look at the passing clouds. Some people need to take a look around and realize that there is something bigger here. There is something more than cell phones and facebook and board meetings. We have so much good in the world and a lot of the time we all don’t take the time to look for it. Ya sometimes you might have to dig deep and really look for it, but other days are easy, some days you can just walk outside in the sunshine and realize that this is what life’s about. It’s about the small stuff. The stuff we all, myself included, don’t take the time to see. Today when you walk outside, no matter what mood you’re in, try and find some joy, just a little slice of something that makes your life worth living.

Life, Love, and Fairy Tales

Today I was thinking about relationships....again...Why does everyone seem to find there sould mate and I can barely find a guy without a criminal record! I guess they say you have to be patient and you cant just go looking for love. Well what kind of advice is that! Who is "they" anyways cause there really biting the big one right now. I have been being patient for over a decade now and I don't think I could possibly "not look" anymore. Why can't the perfect guy just drop into my bed..just like that...simple. Now thats something "they" should be talking about. I guess sometimes things are really happening for a reason... maybe we are alone for some divine purpose. Maybe that "perfect" (perfect used very lightly)guy is just out there waiting for the moment to change my life. Maybe im just a dreamer but when you are alone thats what you'r running on...dreams (maybe a little chocolate and some jack daniels here and there) but for romantic purposes dreams. Love is a many faceted thing, not to be understood by the human mind. So I guess I will just stay patiently waiting for now.


"and if were lucky we realize that face of everything, in the face of love and life, the true dream is being able to dream at all."

Fame

In the words of Andy Warhol everyone will get their 15 minutes of fame at some point in their life. Where those 15 minutes start and end is up to you. I would say that I'm waiting for my 15 minutes to start. The only flashin lights im seeing are those in the on and off sign at the pizza place I work at. I know with all of my heart and wit that I will have no problem becoming famous. Ok well it might be kind of hard figuring I dont really have many usable skills like dancing or acting. I want to write a book...a funny book that people read when they are feeling sad or depressed and it makes them feel better. I also want a TV show. Like a late night comedy show, this shouldn't be too hard figuring I know nothing about television or have any connections whatsoever...except for the ones I have in the Cafeteria at my school. I'm preety much a celeb there. Anyone have any idea how I can start my quest for fame?
