I'm at a point in life that it seems like everything bad that has led up to this point is crashing down on me...and I'm also at the point that I want to face my issues head on so that I can be full of joy.

I'm going to be doing different things with this blog;

1: Write how I have felt/what has gone on recently so that I can keep track of my feelings, etc
2: I'm going to recollect memories or talk about things affecting me right now. I was told that sometimes putting things in writing allows you to cope with things better.


On a positive note, I want to put some things that make me happy or inspire me since that is what I really want; I want to be happy with life and cope with the things that have happened. So here we go. Today I will put quotes/lyrics from two artists that I find their music very inspiring:

BOB MARLEY

"One good thing about music, when it hits- you feel no pain" - Bob Marley

"Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?" - Bob Marley

"Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and Live!" - Bob Marley

"Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction" - Bob Marley

"Don't worry about a thing, every little thing is gonna be alright" - Bob Marley

"Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds. Won't you help to sing the songs of freedom?" - Bob Marley

"Just can't live that negative way...make way for the positive day!" - Bob Marley

"When one door is closed, don't you know, another is open." - Bob Marley




JACK JOHNSON

"It's as simple as something that nobody knows." - Jack Johnson

"Slow down, everyone. You're moving too fast." - Jack Johnson

"Love is the answer, at least for for most of the questions in my heart. Why are we here and where do we go and how come it's so hard. It's not always easy and sometimes life can be deceiving. I'll tell you one thing. It's always better when we're together." - Jack Johnson

"Pretend like it's the weekend...We could pretend it all the time." - Jack Johnson

"My friend told me later he got the chicken pox. I told him I caught politics and never got over it." - Jack Johnson

"There were so many fewer questions when stars were just the holes to heaven." - Jack Johnson

"Look at all the love we found." - Jack Johnson
