All we want is everything.

We all want to know everything. We are constantly on the quest for truth, further knowledge of self or of others, about the world around us...

I know I do too, but the truth is we can never know it ALL. There's always room for learning, always room for new ideas, always room for change & the unknown. If we close our minds to the world, then we close our eyes to what is in front of us, close our ears to new sounds or ideas... we remain still and alone to eventually die inside.

Okay, maybe I might be speaking a little too metaphorically again but really... I truly believe it is vital that we keep our minds strong with passion & motivation; however, humility is so important! You *and I* need to remember to check ourselves! Remember that this moment is OURS... Right now! Do what you say you would. Be who you say you are. REMEMBER what you said you'd do and do it. Don't let moments slip by and your words go undone. Don't just talk, walk, live... live with a purpose, count your blessings and don't let what really matters to you slip away.
Take. Your. Own. Advice.

So it's okay to admit when you're wrong, when you don't know, or when you DO know!

**Self thoughts**
Human interaction really interests me. Resiliency is key. I used to be one of those people who loved to feel sorry for themselves. Ha.... really weird since now I'm all about that positivity! Well, people can think whatever they want -- "It's all talk." Well, guess what. You really do have to fake it to make it sometimes.. because even though it may be "fake" at first... whatever you want in your life, you manifest that. I truly, truly believe in The Secret. If you believe in something so much, then you can and will you do whatever it takes to get there.



BELIEVE! ~ Love & positivity for days to anybody who comes across this. Yes, you too. ;)

I've had this track on repeat for dayssss. Really. It totally motivates me to get my day on. ~ TY Elaquent. Peep the Believing! Totally fitting for this post, right?

Me too.

I'm a firm believer that everything happens because it was meant to and that all of our actions, although maybe not consciously planned, have some way of teaching us. We must learn from them. No doubt in my mind that I have had fun doing the things I have done. I don't regret a single thing. Even if at times, I have become irritated and frustrated with how life is going or has gone.. I know that this is the life that I have created for myself---or the one that was meant for me.

What does it all mean though? Where does self-will and manifestation stop and fate take hold? We can only do so much in our power to get what we want but what about the changing world around us? 

*Early mornin thoughts. 


All we can ever do is try our best, do our best, be at our best... 

[+] Stay conscious, grounded while always reaching higher.

I do think I want to go sit on the clouds today.... Just for a little...

New Ta-Ku... yet another beautiful remix. This guy just knows which sounds tug at heart strings and speak to you. A true artist of his talent. Listen if you haven't (or have) already.

Because the truth will set you free.

Step 1: Be [completely] honest with yourself... your wants, your needs. (Note: this may be painful yet essential)

Step 2: Don't allow the thoughts or words of others overcome the love that you have for yourself.

Step 3: >>Let go of your negative inhibitions.<< Release the past to the past, learn from it, look forward & embrace the future.

Step 4: Move right along. Smile :) Know that life is beautiful and you are blessed.



Not as easy as it seems sometimes.
But if you want it, you can get it.

Independence.

Happy INDEPENDENCE day beautiful America.

I have never been a really patriotic/nationalistic person. I'm hardly interested in politics... forgive me if I choose to stay partly jaded on the issue. {I know perhaps I'll grow up and take more interest in it one day.} Today, I'm focusing on my own independence. I don't think in my entire life have I felt more driven and inspired to be an independent woman. I used to be so scared to be alone, on my own, or having to do things for myself! It may sound silly.. but it's the truth. I grew up a sheltered... spoiled... little girl. Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to act like I'm fully independent as of now. I am not. I am still a young girl just trying to stand on my own two feet. I'm okay with admitting that.

But I feel the need/want to be more of my own person every day.
That means more to me than I could even explain.
Yes, we all gotta grow up sometime.
Sometimes it just starts to click.

We all have our own journeys, this I know.

Living a life for myself and loving every minute of it.
It's nice to see the future looking so bright,
we need to let the sun shine into our lives!

You can do anything and everything if you set your mind to it.
Soooo... let's get to it!

How we are connected.

As life goes on & I look back as I look forward.... I see a bunch of connections that sparked, caught fire, fell apart and then those which continued to surge through with so much electricity. How are we all connected? Is it love? Is it the need to feel accepted? Is it fate? Is it superficial or based on something else?

I believe that all connections form from our basic human need to interact: to be a part of something bigger than ourselves... The feeling of being connected has the ability to make us feel somewhat whole.

We connect on many different levels--and of course to a point.. to share what we have with one another. When is too much? How and why do those surging connections tend to burn out? It seems as if once a connection is formed, it would take a lot for it to just burn out... but sometimes it just short circuits. You know what I mean? Sometimes the connection happens so fast. [We get comfortable too quick] Sparks fly yet that connections just ceases to be.

I know I'm speaking metaphorically but I've just been thinking a lot about connections: how they're formed.. how they end.. why they end. It can be such a mystery but at the same time I think we all know. We knowingly and unknowingly create and cut off connections with each other all the time.

I don't know exactly where I'm going with this, I just wanted to put it out there..
The fact that we are all connected basically means that is what we will be forever. Everybody knows everyone who knows somebody who may feel as if they are nobody. Nobody is really nobody to anybody. Even if a connection is cut off, we know what was once there. They just become old spark plugs with a new generator. Memories of the past.

So while you're here, might as well make those connections. No need to worry about if it will last. These connections we make can be sacred. You may encounter somebody for a split second and then maybe they're gone, never to be seen in your life again. You may meet somebody and they could bring so much into your life and then one day... it just isn't like that anymore. They disappear from your world and that's it. The connection's gone.

No matter what kind of connections that are made, I believe that all of them are made for a reason... to teach each other and learn from each other. This world is such a big place, so why not make it a point to be connected with everyone and everything while you still can?


The world is ours. Spread your love high & low...
