I don't really have anything to say but, I'm bored so I just thought I'd write for a spell to kill some time. I don't have to work tommorow. Which is awsome. And I got some sleep last night so I had a productive day at work. Which always puts me in a good mood. So I'm in a good mood and don't have to work tommorw. Thats me just maintaining a solid status quo.
I got some blogs in my mind I want to write. Still planning them out and I am not really in the mood to write them anyways. So you get this boring drivel. That obviously isn't going anywhere quickly. I need to pick a direction very quickly before you get bored and I get bored and everyone is bored, which will probably put in me in a bad mood and really all the good momentum I got going right at the moment.
Okay I just thought of a topic. Life. Oh how original Michael. You havn't beaten this dead horse enough. But, okay let get a little more specific. It seems lately I've been trying to do a whole lot. And at the same time I don't feel I have a whole lot to show for it. I've been doing a lot priotizing, pondering, reading, meditating, writing, all those things I think are important. I try to pressure myself not to waste my time it is precious. But, sometimes the strain is too much. And it is nice just take it easy on yourself. Give yourself a break. Life is tough enough as it is without you beating yourself up all the time.
The same time we don't want to give up on our dreams. Making something meaningful out of this life. I'll always be pushing myself. I can never truley turn of that little voice in my head that demands ever increasing returns from my time here on earth. But, seriously it is important to take a giant deep breath from time to time and take a good long look at the things you have accomplished in your life. The grace others and God has bestowed on you when you know you arn't worthy.
With all the chaos that has gone in my life over the past few year and even months with my car breaking down everyday. I remeber driving to work stressed out wondering if the car was going to make and I just started thanking my lucky stars. I had people around me that would help me out if the Nova didn't make it or would go out and have a beer with me if I needed to blow off some steam.
It's amazing really. Here in America we have so much opportunity so much potential and yet I think we have become so jaded and cynical. We don't have this, we don't have that. We have more than any generation or civilization before us ever did. And we bitch. We get so caught up in this consumeristic society were we have to have the newest, coolest. I don't know. Just a thought.
Looking over this blog man it I hit all sorts of topic. But, I'm going to attempt to sum it up and put all togethr in some nice take home points. Take it easy on yourself from time to time you deserve it. Never ever give up on your dreams in life you deserve them too. Remeber all those things and people in life that got you were you are today and never ever determine your charachter by what material things you own.
Not bad for not having a topic huh? Ponder that for awhile. Then forget and go on with your life. But, don't forget to leave a comment.

ok its me again, the comment queen :)
but i wanted to tell you i love this post. i passionately agree with so much of what you said here, and i feel like i rarely find someone else who thinks the same way as me about these things and actually takes the time to SAY IT (or write it). So it was nice to read from someone other than myself!
and i'm also amazed by how different some of these posts are in comparison with your old ones... so much more positive and hopeful... i'm curious if you have any thoughts on that? maybe we can chat sometime soon.
Haley you're AWSOME!! I'll surely allow you to be comment queen. Thanks for all the support, kind words, and yeah your definately right about the mood of the blog. Again thanks.
