"i think, therefore i am"

life is like a song.

i could go into a lot of detail and get all into this. but this thought just re-entered my mind from a month ago, when i told my mom about this.

in certain songs, there is something known as “tension” and it’s the concept that every broken chord or series of notes is not supposed to sound pretty. otherwise, the song would be very boring. there should be certain notes played that just don’t sound… “right” but they are written correctly. there are meant to be pretty as well as “ugly” sounding melodies in a song to make it sound better altogether. too much of a good thing can be bad! so too much of all those pretty sounding chords can actually be a horrible song…

the same applies with life, i believe. we’re not supposed to wake up every morning happy inside and out. i am not being a pessimist. i am saying that every day is not going to be a picnic. life is hard sometimes! but we would never learn anything of value if we never exprience hardship. we would never appreciate joy if we have never felt sadness and despair. everything happens for a reason good or bad, so every ugly note, (every tragedy or upsetting news that we hear) is supposed to be that way, as well as every prettty chord played (every joyful moment or awesome news we hear) is also meant to happen. it just makes your own life story so much more interesting. who wants to read an autobiography about a person who has been handed everything, and never ever struggled to climb their way to the top, and was just a blessed and lucky soul who made money and had success instantly…? BORING MUCH?

so. keep playing. even if every note pressed doesn’t feel or sound right. because every song is written a certain way for some purpose, and the same thing applies with the way our lives are carried out. believe this and live with your heads held high. <3

just foood for thought :D

sooo haven’t been on hurr in way too long and i keep forgetting that i have this for my random deep thoughts so here are a few of my recent facebook statuses that i should have just posted here. derp.

in music, you have to read, understand, play what is written by someone else. but in life, you get to write your own melodies and play it the way you feel is right. moral of the story, don’t live your life according to someone else’s standards. dance to the rhythm of your own beating heart :]

sometimes things are gonna happen in our lives, and we’re gonna be devastated and confused and angry at the world and we’ll just keep screaming “why?” but…we just have to accept that..it is this way because “God said so” …everything that happens is for a reason, and God would never hand us something we can’t handle. trust, thank, love and praise Him.

I just will never, for the life of me, be able to fathom why young people rush into growing up, when they should be cherishing their youth…you’re only gonna be this young and healthy once, and I’d rather jump on a moon bounce laughing joyfully, then get wasted, high and pregnant. seriously, though..it’s a shame.

life is precious, amazing, incredible, insane, difficult, heart-breaking, unpredictable, tiring, faith-testing, but it is breath-takingly beautiful and you should cherish every little moment and be happy that you wake up every day and have a roof over your head and food at the table. so, smile, through awesome times and terrible times, because without laughter, hope and love, we would have absolutely nothing. ♥

little miracles

yannoe what? i was just thinking about life. i was feeling sad, and lost and hopeless about a lot of different things. and it’s not that these things aren’t serious or important, or worth worrying about… but they should not take over your mind. you should not let poisonous thoughts control you. they only bring you down physically, mentally and spiritually. every day that you’re alive and well, every day that you wake up and you’re not dead in the ground, is a blessing, a miracle. whenever i feel sad i just look around me and see all the things i have and all the people that are in my life, and i feel blessed and happy. so even when a million things are going wrong, there are a million other little things that are going right. if you consume yourself with sadness, that’s what you will find, every day, all the time. bad things will happen, but that doesn’t mean you have to live your life sad. just pray, keep looking up and smile, because life is good. <3

i always wonder..

I always wonder about what my life will be like in about 10 or 15 years. Will I be living somewhere I never imagined? How many kids will I end up having? What kind of person will I choose to marry, when and how? What job will I have and will I be successful? Will my kid’s lives growing up be in any way similar to mine? Will I have to force them to join stuff that I want them to, or will they develop their own interests like I did? Will they have problems, will they be geniuses? It is just weird to think that this present moment, who you are and where you are now, will be completely different in a matter of years. You will never be this age again, or feel the same exact way about things. Everything about you will change and you might not ever even remember this moment. Everything will be so different, but yet you won’t even notice because you will just be living in the moment. You’re not going to notice things changing, because you’re just aware of each day happening. One day you’re going to wake up, and you will be living somewhere else, a new person, a new house, etc. Life goes by in the blink of an eye, we’re 5 years old one day, then the next day and then we’re turning 16, we graduate high school, then we’re looking for a job and an apartment. But don’t worry about the future, because it will always come, and everything will be alright. God would not throw anything your way if he didn’t think that when you get there, you couldn’t handle it. Just live life and appreciate the way things are at each moment of your life.
