inspiration of the soul

Nothing inspires creativity of the soul quit like calm music with careful, heartfelt lyrics; especially in the middle of the night.

Memories

Oh how I love memories. How they open doors to feelings of hope and joy.
I just heard a song that I remember listening to a lot during a time full of excitement for the future. I miss that. I shouldn't have to miss it. I should be feeling the same excitement always. But it's too easy to forget. So here's my shout out to the rest of my hidden memories which are unnecessarily withholding beneficial feelings to inspire the creation of a perfect life; OLLY OLLY OXEN FREE, COME OUT COME OUT WHERE EVER YOU ARE. My life is great now but I'm sure there are things I've forgotten that could make it better.

fixing flaws

Joy comes from acting. Not from being acted upon. That's one thing I just really internalized for myself. I'm pretty close to always happy. And that's because I act when I should. I normally do all of my homework before crunch time. I normally do some dishes or clean something when I notice it and don't have anything else going right then. But when I start adding useless things to my time and putting off those necessary actions until I have to do it then, quite frankly, I just get grumpy and self-centered. I've always kind of heard that like when parents or teachers or church people say it... "do the important things first" but of course I always want to rebel. It's starting to sink in now, but unfortunately I'll probably forget this sometimes.
          Be smart. Be productive. Be happy.
