Breathe into me... Inflate my soul... The weight on my head is draining me
The Liberty Tax guy doing the chicken dance in the rain is probably the coolest person I've met in months.
Serious contemplation has been taking place within my mind and body. This rainy dreary weather is my favorite and really helps things ooze out of my brain. Today has brought about a few realizations and I just appreciate knowing that I'm better off today than I was yesterday and each day before. Other things that help, good music made by good friends and well... just music period.
What do I want to do in life? Just be in the world, really, living and doing and mostly seeing and hearing and learning and thinking. I think everyone's most important duty, though, should be inspiring. Everyday we have to fight off the urge to do nothing but if we can inspire, well... that would be the greatest gift of all. If you can't inspire those who inspire you, well... I guess you aren't good for much. Inspiration by it's very nature should be reciprical so what I really want to do is learn how to better interact with my idols. Fortunately I'm not inspired by phoney celebs or anyone who is truly unreachable, they all have a soul. Now I have to work on better relating to the people who I adore and breaking through the translucency.
I have spent too much time, since college, trying to understand my purpose but I now know that instead I need to work on figuring out to best way to spend the short amount of time I have alotted to me in this life. M. Scott Peck taught about not being able to live life until you have come to terms with death in order to better understand the timeline we have to work with. I believe that. I know I'll never be ok with doing one thing. I need to stop trying to do that and pretending to be happy with that and instead do as many things as possible that bring me joy. In the past I was just waiting and holding out for this idea that I will one day realize the one thing I am supposed to do. I want to be a part of everything that comes my way. Everything. Guess and check style.
Let's all go for a walk in the rain.
