I've found IG to be a good place

spoken_allowed

So I have been gone a while; I haven't been posting anything or even writing until very recently. I have posted two quotes, or as I've recently thought about calling them *parables* let me know how that sounds to you. HMU instagram About that. After posting two quotes, I have began to recognize my creative feeling coming back and I am going to begin recording my thoughts once more. I love how they both inspire and challenge me; hold me accountable in most cases.

TL;DR Today I wanted to tell you that I'm back and I feel good

I've gone through I rather I creative period, I was trying to figure out myself- some things that as an Empath you tend to overlook while you put the betterment of others before yourself- more on that later. I'm going through a new phase now though, and I'm trying to take better care of myself to see where that takes me.

*sigh*How am I going to write my way out of this? It seems like chasing success is going to be a longer and harder journey than I thought...I think some people (actually, just the big name people like Vloggers and Rapstars) have an advantage because of their location.New York, L.A, Cali, etc. 

Because of where I am, the opportunities to do most things I want to do seem way too far out of reach, and it feels impossible to break each move I make down; I have to steadily make progress one step at a time. I know I want to involve myself in the media, and it would just be easiest to start there, but I can’t help but view the whole picture, and it gets too overwhelming! AH! 

I need to stop rambling and just start- Do something, ANYTHING. There's still that possibility; I know it's I can do it from where I'm sitting, it just seems too far out of reach sometimes.

My friends in a nutshell...Every last on of ‘em.

If you continuously go out of your way to make someone happy and they don’t return the energy, leave them because they don’t consider you worthy of the same energy they are taking from you. Therefore the vibe is not equal. Don’t let your loyalty make a fool out of you.

The first one is tough, especially when they’re your parents....but we all go through it- at least I have to think that...I’m going through this right now; canya tell?

This guy is a psychologist....He has a degree, He’s not on of the those bullshit Tai Lopez guys who makes money solely of his campaign on YouTube...at least I think...He seem’s legit so far, and regardless of that, he really is there to help. (unlike Tai and others I’ve watched). I’ve watched a lot of his videos, and while understanding he is on a different path, I’ve taken into consideration what he says. Sometimes, you should take notes because it’s a lot at once, but the perspective’s are eye-opening once you finally put them into effect. (Everyday I can see his teachings come to life)...You’ll see, just give it a chance. If you’re one who likes learning, you’d definitely enjoy taking a peak.

My Favorite way to spend a lazy day? First off, the only lazy days should ever be Sundays. I occasionally want to indulge in a lazy day, only after long days during the week. I think sleeping in is a waste of energy, unless you are re-cooperating from that long week, or some of those long days I was talking about. The body needs rest, of course, but it only needs six hours at minimum. I feel like I could have used my time better to do something productive whenever I choose to sleep in, so I try to avoid staying up too late, and I also I set an alarm for eight o'clock every morning- and try not to hit the snooze button- just to avoid that feeling. Anything productive to me is well worth it, but since I have been asked about lazy days, I am going to say my favorite thing is learning, especially on YouTube or by reading online....I feel like book can be a nice change from time to time, but they draw out a point, talking about it in detail, and I personally just am more stimulated from video's, and the actual people in them speaking.

Tumblr is my Notebook.

I can’t help but thinking, deep thoughts that is. All day every day, I’m constantly evolving via my profound state of mind. I am an academic at heart; a scholar if you will. I put pen to paper almost every day because I flock to personal notation. I like to visualize what I have written in order to reflect on personal experiences.

Socialogy

I rt’s all about how you respond to something...like I snake to aliens. They don’t no what it is...they PERCEIVE it harmless, so they investigate. We PERCEIVE it as deadly, so we run away.

This is all based on views;prior perspectives, and sometimes bias feeling. I look to eliminate that in everyday life, especially social life, because I feel it helps with understanding, giving a new angle on a previously unsolvable predicaments/arguments. Possibly solving an issue for good- with all parties exiting with a clear conscious and analysis of the situation.

Post It Forward

I’d like to start a community blog just to raise awareness, and I would like you all interested in what I’m saying on my posts to give it a shot for yourself, particularly because I think it will make you feel better. I don’t know if it’s a stupid concept or not, but through writing it is personally my goal to raise awareness of situations I lived through, and I tend to gravitate towards poetry when I do this.

If some of you out there would like to write, and for those of you who express yourself differently; drawing, photographs, whatever, come in and post your create expressions! …Please, just try it. Whatever way you can contribute- Make it about awareness though (#awareness). I strongly encourage you. we could start the world thinking on a trend of creative expression.

It might even spread hope to the people post it forward is campaigning for.
