To be great is to be misunderstood

This picture made me so happy. I am not positive why... Just the creativity of this photo. It just reminds me of how short life is, and the humor in that. Because I believe life is what you make of it, and it could last as long as it can. There is always time for you to fully do everything that you dream of. There is a certain "law" in life that I really believe in 150%. That "law" is the "law of attraction". If you know anything about the book/movie "The Secret" you understand what I am talking about. I have always been a positive thinker and I feel that contributes to where I am in life, or how everyday of my life turns out. I am in control of my life, no one else. =]

This will be my snake one day. I think the Emerald Tree Boa is so gorgeously breathtaking. Wow. Thought I would just share that with you when I cam across this photo. If you know me then you know my love for snakes. =]]]

Listen as your day unfolds Challenge what the future holds Try to keep your head up to the sky Lovers, they may cause you tears Go ahead, release your fears Stand up and be counted Don't be ashamed to cry You gotta be You gotta be bad, you gotta be bold, you gotta be wiser You gotta be hard, you gotta be tough, you gotta be stronger You gotta be cool, you gotta be calm You gotta stay together

All I know, all I know is

Love will save the day

Unfamiliar territory

My English teacher is one of a kind. I find that often in her class she makes me use the parts of the brain I have never ever used. You ever have those moments in your childhood that you can remember every detail it seems? Well that would be my essay that I have to create for English 1. And let me tell you that I never really paid attention, in detail, to these moments. I just saw them as any ordinary moments that happened, but when you cannot remember many experiences from your childhood these are significant in many ways. I will write more from my essay as the time arrives... but I would not let things just pass you by. If you remember moments in you childhood, or even from last week, do not let them go unnoticed. It really could be a moment of "non-being" which is amazing.

Little example...

Riding around the streets of Thailand in the back of my Aunts Toyota Helix I noticed every detail that passee me by. The smells in the air, the posture of people, the color of the sky, the buildings that passed me by. Seeing the poverty around me that made me come to a realization. I am such a small peice that makes up the world. I knew that I was meant for something bigger that the world was mine. I knew in that moment of "awakening" that in the world I would leave something behind to be remembered forever... Life was not just meaningless or undefined. That death was not something to fear... for when I die I know that my life would have been fulfilled.

Zen

This will now be my new place of Zen... I need to find that "non-being" moment I once had.

"Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy." - Lao Tzu

I'm healthy,

I'm content,

Always confident...

working on the last.
