i vs. you

I sometimes wonder what the the world sees when they look into my life. What do I look like? What does my aura feel like? Are my eyes really that big, and do i really laugh as much as everyone says I do? Are my morals and standards strange to some, or are they clear cut and respectable? what about my trials? Everyone always says that i hide my things well, but is that the truth? Am i good at keeping the world out of my small bit of hell?

These questions asked, i'm glad for whatever the world sees me as. I'm perfectly happy with my appearance. I do my best to send out positive vibes. I'm completely content with the things i stand for, in fact i am more than happy to spend my life standing for something. Most importantly, i wouldn't trade my small bit of hell for anything. I have constantly been reminded how beautiful the hardships i face are and how grateful i am to deal with the things i do. With every inch of hell i faithfully face i am rewarded with a mile of heaven.

Once these thoughts clear my mind, i wonder what it would be like if i was unexpectedly given someones else's life. Would I be content? Would i face life with as much grace as the one before me did? Would my past life benefit my new one, or would it affect at all if i sank or swim? 

And again i am reminded how beautiful my life is. I wouldn't last one minute in someone else's shoes, and quite frankly, i am perfectly fine with that. I love this life i was given.

Truth.

Dusk and Summer

“…she remembered watching a summer sunset from this very spot. Not so long ago; just a lifetime.”

 “The first stab of love is like a sunset, a blaze of color -- oranges, pearly pinks, vibrant purples...”

 “Never waste any amount of time doing anything important when there is a sunset outside that you should be sitting under!”

No Handlebars.

 For now, life is perfect. The breeze is cool and the lighting is beautiful. The crickets chirp with such ease while the city below buzzes and twinkles with street lights and cars. The last drops of sunlight are slowly disappearing behind the rolling mountains that protect the place I call home. For just a moment life is frozen into a perfect moment of serenity. All that mattered this morning suddenly seems but a small flicker of time. Things are okay, everything is peaceful, and I know because of this quiet moment that everything will be alright.

 Tonight, my life is a beautiful thing.

H.O.P.E.

New Life

She said I think I'll go to Boston

I think I'll start a new life, 

I think I'll start it over,

Where no one knows my name.

Ill get out of California, I'm tired of the weather,

I think I'll get a lover and fly him out to Spain.

Oh yeah I think I'll go to Boston,

I think that I'm just tired.

I think i need a new town, to leave this all behind.

I think I need a sunrise,

I'm tired of the sunset,

I hear its nice in the summer,

some snow would be nice, oh yeah.

You dont know me,

You dont even care. 

Shh..
