life on a heavy rotation...

“The weeks they don’t matter, it’s the days I can’t take; When the hours move to minutes and I’m seconds away…” - TBS

We are always begging the clock to speed up or slow down.  Time is always the enemy. All of a sudden months have passed and we can barely recognize the person in the mirror.  

The days are mundane and the changes within ourselves become so subtle that they are barely recognizable on a day to day basis. But looking months into the past, they are undeniable. The amount of knowledge one can aquire just by living each day cannot be calculated, but it can be seen in large personal growth in a short period of time. It’s amazing how each day can feel so similar yet the changes can be incredible. This summer has changed me, hopefully for the better, although that is yet to be determined.  

Scared for my new journey that starts next week - but excited to prove to myself how much I’ve changed, and how much I’m finally ready to let myself succeed.

Summer 2010 - It’s been real,  but I’m ready to see what my first Autumn in WHB has in store for me.

Remember: the time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself. Life’s cruelest irony.

How important are you to the ones who are important to you? Are you in denial of the truth?

It’s always interesting to me when “friends” tell their “friends” the things they want to hear instead of the truth. Who doesn’t want to hear the truth?

True friends look out for one another.  They push one another to flourish.  They want one another to be the best that they can be. Why do so many people struggle with this concept? The inability to be truthful will only weaken the friends success, or the friendship as a whole.

If everything’s sugar coated in the end you just end up with a mouth full of cavities… or in this case, a group of rotten friends.

Our greatest glory is not never failing… but getting up every time we do.

so thanksgiving was ridiculous. everyone in my group of family got high to deal with the judgments of the other members of the family. i’m able to cross family lines and be on both sides so i felt both happy and completely uncomfortable. i’m happy to get back to real life and re motivate myself. i will NOT fail. :-) … after the five hour car ride back, woof.

warm chocolate chip cookies, straight out the oven.

a: yeah but its still good, i mean, you would look disgusting if u were in milk too long. ::laughter:: like an old milkman.

n: or a milk ghost!! (acts out being a zombie ghost)

the minds of my brothers… nine and six years old. i love the way they think.

Soul to squeeze

home today!

Today love smiled on me. 
It took away my pain said please 
All that you had to free 
You gotta let it be oh yeah. 
Where I go I just don’t know 
I got to got to gotta take it slow. 
When I find my peace of mind 
I’m gonna give you some of my good time. 
Oh, so polite indeed 
Well I got everything I need. 
Oh make my days a breeze 
And take away my self destruction. 
It’s bitter baby, 
And it’s very sweet. 
I’m on a rollercoaster, 
but I’m on my feet.

Take me to the river, 
Let me on your shore. 
I’ll be coming back baby, 
I’ll be coming back for more.

just wondering….

when did something so fantastical become something so long ago?

it’s crazy. rewind?

oh, wait.

Time is priceless, but it’s Free. You can’t own it, you can use it. You can spend it. But you can’t keep it. Once you’ve lost it you can never get it back.

No day but today.

forget inhibition, pursue your dreams.

today’s the perfect day to make the changes you’ve been dreaming about for days, weeks…years?  no more excuses. you are your own worst enemy and your own best friend, and only you chose which half is dominant in your life.
