We Were Born Lovers.

Sometimes I feel weighed down from expectations. I feel like I have to fit this mold that the world has placed around me, but I just can't seem to keep from oozing out of it. The world is trying to contain me with all its strength, yet I keep fighting it. I feel as if I am being squeezed down, confined, drained. But, I push up, and up, and up. Never backing down. Slipping through the cracks, the flaws, of the mold. Until finally it bursts, and I am released. I am free.

What I'm saying here is open your eyes. Look at the possibilities. We could be so much more than this. And the pain? You could erase it. The worry? Tell it goodbye. Be a free heart, a free spirit. Open up to the world. Take off your mask. Live your life. Dance in the middle of a store when your favorite song comes on. Tell that certain someone you can't live without them. Run in the rain, only stopping to jump in puddles of mud. Whatever it is, just do it. Don't hesitate. Never look back.

Whenever you are older. When you are on your death bed, and you reflect on your life, what are you going to say? I know that I will have lived the life I always dreamed of if I can say, "I fought, & I won."

This world is beautiful. Embrace it. Love it. Live it.

Worth A Snapshot.

In honor of breast cancer awareness month my friend has put together several photoshoots and a facebook fanpage called Worth A Snapshot that you can find here. She asked me to be the model for one of her prevention photoshoots. Be sure to check out this page and learn more about how you can work to stay cancer free. Be aware of how precious your health and life is this month and share with other people.

Let's Start a Revolution.

If we want things to change then we have to do something to make things different. We can't just sit around saying that we wish things would change and expect a change to happen. We have to get up and do what we believe is the right thing, all the time. Especially when the people you are with don't agree with you. It is easy to state your opinion when everyone around you agrees, but when they don't, that's the true test of how much you actually are willing to fight for the cause you support.



Today Proposition 8 was overturned, which has caused an uproar of happiness from all my friends and of course myself. This gives me so much hope for America. Finally we are allowing people to love one another legally, even if it isn't what we were taught is the stereotypical 'love', it is still love. Everyone should be allowed to legally express their love for one another.



Also, along with loving everyone around you, you must learn how to love yourself. Everyone has value and the ability to change the world as we know it however they would wish. The world is like your own slab of wet clay waiting to be formed. Every person touches this clay, whether they realize it, or not. But, it's up to them to decide how they wish to shape their corner of the world. Choose wisely. The larger of a piece you grab the more you will change. I vote to take the biggest piece my hands can hold.
