Day 17 - Finding happiness.

It's within you... That happiness you're searching for. It won't come by plane, car or magic tricks. It is within you. You just have to embrace it and be the best you. If you find happiness within you, then it will fill every part of your life. The friendships you have, the career you want. Because I believe it's true what they say, if you don't like yourself, then who will? In the end, the only person you have to thank for what's happened in your life (not including accidents or losing people) but your own personal feelings and journey, is you... You are the master of your fate. Even if you - as I - have faith you are still in control of your own life. That's the beauty of life, you have the tools to make it a great one. It doesn't mean that you've failed if you feel you haven't fulfilled your potential, but you are aware that your life choices have led you to a certain place and that you are actually capable of changing it.

That's my belief anyway, take it as you will. I know I've made plenty of crappy life choices, but now I'm more determined than ever to change that about myself. I'm ready to take it to the next level, to get where I want to be. And I am excited!

Tip of the day:
If you're a gamer, try out the XBLA (for the clueless: X Box Live Arcade) title called "Dishwasher: Vampire Smile" - it's a cool game. Dystopia and destruction of society. Great value for money!

Love + Blessings

Confused

Maybe, there's a reason for all the pain. Maybe not? But what I know for sure, is that we can't take it all at once. I tried to be the good person, to give of myself, in the right way. Without hurting any one, or myself. I know I am not perfect, in any way. No one is. Really.  But, I also find it hard to imagine a world where there is less pain.

Angsty teen

I love looking at things I've written a decade ago - am I really getting that old? Then, some times you come across  a poem where you wonder what was going through you at the time. You can't really remember what brought you to that place where the poem came from. To be honest, I remember being an angsty teen and really focused on the bad things that were happening in my life, but still I can't remember who I wrote this about. I honestly always draw from my own experiences in life so this must have meant something to me. For the life of me, I wish I could remember. I published the following very short poem online in 2003: --- What can I say, to make it all better? What can I do, to make it last forever? What can I see, that you don't in me? ---- I find it funny now, that I could be so completely lost in someone to write such a poem. Yet, I think it comes with the territory of being a teenager. You obsess and worry and wonder why love hasn'

"Dancin' Away With My Heart"

So - I see a lot of people "dreading" the coming Valentine's Day... Honestly, I couldn't care less about this day. When I was in a long term relationship I'll admit that I, in the beginning, expected my partner to get me something on Valentine's Day. I soon realized that it didn't mean as much as when he just surprised me on an ordinary day with something out of the ordinary. In reality, Valentine's Day has nothing to do with love or appreciation. It's a corporately structured "holiday" where industries try to put an emphasis on one day where your partner "should" show his appreciation for you. Why would it matter on this particular day and less on other days? Ridiculous... Okay, I'll level with you guys. I believe in true love. Yeah I know what you're gonna say. Blah blah, women believe in true love and they always have. They want that knight in shining armour to come rescue them and won't give anything less than
