i was just reading some previous livejournal posts by tom wise and i have been inspired. tom, i love you. i was reading the month of february and about stuff that are fresh memories in my mind and i realized i had been smiling the entire time. at this moment, due to the enlightenment brought to me by tom, i am the happiest i have been all summer. i have everything i could ever want right now. im about to move to bowling green with tom and joey, and see all my best friends again. i have met the most amazing female ever to walk the face of the earth. and im going to see her tonight, and embrace the night as if it were the last. because one day soon, it will be. but i dont think about that, thats why im so fucking happy i guess. i am at work and i just cant stop smiling. this is amazing. i had to write about it. i just wish i could explain it. im not successful as of yet. lets see. when i attended wku last year i was so scared to leave my area. but it couldnt have turned out better than it did. i met people that are my best friends, hundreds of times better friends than i previously had. and i've only known them for less than a year!! i think college just gave me the opportunity to start over. i didnt do anything differently on purpose, it just happened. and boy has it been appreciated. now i meet the best people all the time. the top of that list would be elizabeth stewart. what can i say. i cant describe how happy i am with her, hell just talking to her on the computer. its scary how much of an attraction there is. and i never would have met her if i didnt have a boring job that would inspire me to open a myspace account, and be approached by this beautiful lady. its crazy how life works. the smallest decisions end up like the ripples from a rain drop in a pond: the size of the pond. at the same time, its kindof scary to think about how much of a lack of control we have over ourlives. its the removal of the fear that produces the desirable results however. people need to stop trying to control their lives and just let what happens happen. And also, there comes a point in your life where you need to take risks, step outside your comfort zone. GROW AS A PERSON. Nothing great has ever come from staying the same. People should live exciting lives. Have stories to tell others. I think what i'm trying to get at is why we are here. And John Edwards opened my eyes to a lot of this last night. When he spoke of how our country is two americas right now. We need to become one, work together. I think we are meant to live with each other. As a people, we should all work together. Only good can come from this idea. LIVE WITH A PASSION FOR LIFE. If we join together, all ignorence aside, every person should have the opportunity to live a happy life. A successful life. Throw stories of poverty and tragedy out the window. It makes such perfect sense to me now. I'm going to go ahead and predict that in 30 years this will have been achieved. In 30 years the president of the united states will be our age. Possibly a high school friend. Possibly you. This makes me feel good, since i have so much faith in my generation. We will make everything right. I think the goal in life should be to live a happy and exciting life, yet leave an even better life and opportunity waiting for the next generation of people to smile on this planet. Or not on this planet, whichever the case may be. Wow i have gotten off subject. Back to my happiness. Another main reason i am happy is because i have discovered my passion. MUSIC. Where would i be if my stepdad hadnt taught me those chords on the old beat up acoustic 3 years ago. Would i still be so blind? All i know is, i will try my hardest to make music make me for the rest of my life. I know it is so possible. Just to play shows on a regular basis all over the country, not big shows. Just clubs, packed with people, friendly happy people. Just to make someone smile, make them leave feeling the way i do when i leave a show. Inspired, Glowing, Talkative, Thoughtful, Passionate, Motivated, Full of Love, Excited. This post is just a total mess of ideas i've thrown out on the table. Will probably not impact anyone. Makes no sense. But i'm glad i wrote it. I just cant explain how happy i am. MUSIC, FRIENDS, GIRL, LIFE. What more can i ask for. I HAVE EVERYTHING. I just might shed a few tears of joy.
JOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
LOVE TO ALL. AND ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TO A SPECIAL PERSON.
