So, you can fail at your life. I know this, its a fact. But there are multiple ways of doing it and saving it from happening fully. If you are suffering, and your mindset is suffering (one is probably causing the other) you are close to failing. The real measure of failure though, is living someone elses life. Your language, thought, and whatever is yours, and if its not, you are failing. Easy enough...when you don't praise anything around you, or your mind and how it is working, you are failing to see yourself mixing into the world. There's need for a big balance (according to my professor) and getting your focus off of yourself solely is very important. Involving community aspects, cultural ideas, etc., into your sphere you are taking focus off yourself (thus not dwelling on your not so successful days). This is in my language/thought/culture class and we had to choose our language that we give to ourselves on a daily basis (a summing up of it). It is supposed to represent our longing for life, its all really simple, obviously, but cutting out the complexity is always a good thing...So, at least for today, but I'd like to move it into the long run, I choose to be soft and exciting, thats my contribution. Simple I know. There's nothing wrong with simple. Or maybe there is and I'm completely blind to it! Ha, that's bad!

So, it was a good class morning. Just refreshing and reflective, there seems to be so little time for that anymore. There's just a constant, dark wave pressing at me to go forward at an uncontrollable, overly-caffeinated pace. Get to work, work hard, do school work at work, get school work done fast, but well and consider graduation plans, get to it on the plans. Freak out about the plans! Eat food, go back to school, bla blah... The days gets too structured. I enjoy a little simple, positive mind wander. A good snowboarding session. Bikram yoga. And a documentary. Easy to please to say the least.
