Good Riddance

Look to see beauty written in the sky,
To watch all the gleaming stars for a little while,
Then spin around the dusty shore as fast as you pry
And leave a dusty trail as you stumble for a mile.
Trip up the rocky steps
And glide down mountains and valleys,
Swim against the ocean saepe,
Possess what it carries.
The journey delivers the absurd
Of lemons, gold and fire.
With all the colours of the world,
We become our natural dyer.
Branches and leaves and moisture and sleet,
Kind and pale it falls firm on our heads.
The warmth that beams is obsolete,
The season won't change as the winter gainsaid.

The weather changes constantly and humans live on Earth to witness the beauties of such a divine world. In the mundane we encounter hundreds if not thousands of decisions, consciously and subconsciously. It's the moments when important choices need to be made where sometimes things are too hard to choose between. A career change, life partner, overseas trip, family ties, promises. All the strongest commitments in life are the hardest to make clear. Sometimes it takes a short while to finally come to terms with a decision. The mind of a child is simple, like the air through the trees - they're exposed to it, they receive it, it is simple. The adult mind however has been exposed to many a choices therefore makes a situation more difficult. The more possibilities, the greedier the mind. We begin to start thinking of 'what is the best decision' 'what would give me more money' 'what is easiest' 'what would others think of me'. If things weren't supposed to be challenging we could count on flipping a coin. If things were that simple we'd all invest in a handy 8 ball.

Take a moment for yourself, breathe in and truly feel who you are at this moment in time. What are your most wanted desires, what are your most essential needs, what are the positives in each of your choices, do the positives outnumber the negatives? These moments in your life will change you forever and mould you into the person who you will become. Choosing wisely does not always mean choosing the right pathway, as you can always learn from whatever journey you take. Just remember to enjoy your life, no matter what negativity becomes of it. Trust your own instincts and decide whats best for you. Take advice from the wise owls above and know it will always be your final say. When life gives you lemons give them away and pick your own fruit. Because it is in your own destiny to be proud and filled with happiness; no one can buy you happiness but you can find it within yourself. Fate sets us up and makes fools of us all but we can smile and cheer when we find that true love in our life called bliss.

Make the most of what you've got.
Lessons are learnt.
It's never that predictable.
But in the end it's always right.
Have the best time of your life.

Song of the day - Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Green Day

Where is the love?

The things we degrade. The people who gossip. The stuff that makes us angry. The negative in our lives. The moments we feel dead. The days we don't want to wake up. When the iPhone becomes iPhone5. The relationships we throw away. When everything goes wrong. Where nothing goes right. The cold is too cold. The hot is too hot. When you get bad news do you lay down and cry? Should a bad hair day ruin someone else's? When the rain smudges your makeup do you blaspheme at your God? When your glass of bubbly has no bubbles do you scream and shout and throw your glass down? The things we take for granted. The advantages in our lives. The happiness that stumbles in front of us when we least expect it. The beauty surrounding us. The things we neglect to notice. We must take every moment and smile at these painful days. The hysterics of laughing at the boy who tripped up the stairs, even though we all know it hurts. Life should be amazing. Life should feel amazing. Obviously not all the time but it doesn't hurt to try and love the life you live. Stop to pick the flowers creeping through the pavement cracks. Learn to make the one you love as happy as you want to feel loved. Help the old lady carry her groceries to the car. Don't fight with your mumma just say sorry. Don't assume someone else's story is any better than yours. Don't assume your story is any more amazing than theirs. If your life seems tough think of all the things you have. Be grateful for that warm bed. Be grateful for the food you eat. It's easy to forget how easy we have it in this life when others struggle to breathe. The love in this world, I feel, is stronger. But it needs to be even more prominent. War is present. Peace is coming. Believe. Where is your love? Who is your love? What do you love in this world? Be positive and don't be judgmental of others. You don't know their story, but remember they don't know yours either. Be yourself. Be love. Be Happy.
