off the chest...
so i've been home all day doing stuff for school and i feel like updating my blog with whatever is flowing through my mind. and i know my head is full of thoughts right now because i'm having a hard time concentrating on doing my project. the creativity is being clogged by other things running around in my head. so let me take a shot at this and maybe by speaking my mind might get me back on that artistic pathway to snatch me that A+.

we all want more out of life. whether it's more money, more fun, more friends, more holidays, or whatever... we want more. don't tell me there is nothing more you want out of life because there is always something you don't have or haven't learned yet. the one thing we have to distinguish is the want for what. do you want more money? or do you want peace? do you want that perfect someone? or do you want that perfect you? (by the way... nothing in this world is perfect. it's better that way.) i've lived enough life and been through so much, so far, that i can compare my wants now as opposed to my wants then. being financially challenged back then made me want to look for success in different places. but back then i had everything i could ever want but overlooked it and took things for granted. now, financially, i'm there. but now, everything i took for granted... well you know how that ends. i don't like using my own personal life as examples but i guess what's on my mind is that i, right now, could definitely use more. don't get me wrong, i love life and everything in it. but it's like getting your favorite dish at your favorite restaurant but as you take that first bite, you think it could use a little more salt or pepper to make it just the way you like it. well at this point in time i've ordered that great tasting dish and waiting for that little bit of salt or pepper so i can enjoy my meal.

i feel like something is definitely missing in my life but it's not likely something major. i have my family, a wonderful job, my education, my friends, the air in my lungs, and certain people (they know who they are) that make me love my life and i am who i am because of them. i'm going to keep pushing ahead because that's the only way i keep balanced. it's like riding a bike, to keep your balance you have to keep moving forward.

my mind still has lots of things i just want to dump out so i can just let go of things already but i think i've spoken well enough to continue my project. ahhhh.... i feel much better.

oh by the way... more pictures to come. i'm also working on a little something to keep my blog fresh every week. i got a couple of ideas up my sleeve that i'm sure you, my audience, will enjoy. so stay tuned...
