Merry Christmas to all :)
just a little something
the other night i was standing out in my back yard at home and i came to a realization. colorado is my home, though my blood family may not be there my friends have become my family. anyways, here are my words:
how loud it is here
the sound of cars is constant
everyone always in a hurry to reach their destination
not even stopping to see the beauty of the journey
too focused on themselves to realize
their neighbor is struggling to survive
the day-to-day stresses
boiling to the surface
making it impossible to see clearly
blinding us from our surroundings
how quiet it is there
the mountains standing tall and silent
in the light of the full moon
the sky seems endless
as the stars shine down from the heavens
as if to tell us, i’ve seen tomorrow and it’s beautiful
time seems to stand still like nothing else matters
only you me and this moment
this is what life is about
the little moments
with the people that mean something to you
enjoying the simplicity of the night
without even realizing the sun is rising
on a new day of new adventures
never forget though the future is bright
the present is much more meaningful
and the past shouldn’t be forgotten,
but don’t let what happened then predict what will happen now
doesn’t rhyme, isn’t supposed to be a poem, just a way to get thoughts and emotions out.
Mumford & Sons
Love it will not betray you, dismay or enslave you
It will set you free.
Be more like the man you were made to be.
This lyric may be one of my favorites I’ve ever heard, mostly because I’ve had the joy and pain of experiencing love in it’s true form with no judgement based on gender, physical apperence or anything. Love just being love. I learned so much about myself from this love, good and bad. And lately been taking a inner look at myself, there are things that I like and things that I dislike. I know people say they plan on changing, but that statement has never been more real to me than now. I will be the person I was made to be. I will stop being lazy, I will find my thirst for learning again, I know it. It may take time and it will probably suck for the first few weeks, but it will happen.
One week. Until I see the coast, until I see my family, until I am home, until I can continue my journey of life and finding out who I really am. One week.
i would love to live here
