Acting in the real world

We are all actors according to Marlon Brando. And I wholeheartedly agree. When you change outfits, do you not feel like a completely different person? If you are wearing casual versus dress up you are a completely different person are you not? When you wear a different pair of shoes or socks don't you just feel different in the ones you are wearing depending on the type and the feel of them. You might feel less confident or more confident, or you might feel more beautiful or you might just feel weird or off or maybe you might feel just right on the money. Every where you look people are hiding or showing off or they are just being themselves, and boy let me tell it is hard to play yourself in this world of ups and downs and positives and negatives. Sometimes you just got to fake it until you make it you know what I mean. If you are faking it you will eventually catch up to who you really want to be and I guess that's the whole point. As we live day to day just look around and see how everyone is usually and often playing a character of some type. Whatever that person is doing they are playing a role. A father, a mother, a sister, a brother, and so on. We are all just faking it most of the time, and once we hit the jack pot and figure out who we really are well then we'll probably be just fine and happy as can be just like it should be, and that is what we are all looking for everyday, and that's just what I believe at this point and moment in my life. So keep going, never give up hope, and always, always, stay true to yourself and you'll be just fine.

What Dreams May Come

It is very difficult to live your life moment to moment, day to day, trying, striving to make each day count, to make every moment count. Most of us, I am guessing in this day and age are living for the next thing, we are looking for the grass to be greener, for our lives to be better in an instant. And yet the problem is we are missing out on everything that is happening right now. If we would just stop and look around for a while, we won't miss it at all, we will instead be free from our fears and our insecurities, and we will learn to live in the right way, and in the right manner. To dream is a good thing though, the hard part is getting there. We wake up each day hoping that this day we'll be the day that changes our life for the better, and yet we forget to live our lives, because we are to busy to see that life is right in front of us ready, and willing to let us have all that we want right now. It is hard to wait for your dreams to come true, but let us not forget that life can be good even while we are waiting for our real lives to begin.

Thank you for listening, your ever faithful friend on this journey we call life.

Human Civility

We are all searching for the same things in life, aren't we? We have to realize that our similarities outweigh our differences in so many ways. And yet there is still so much hatred in the world. And I am here to ask why. Why is there so much hatred in a world made up of human beings that eat, drink, and strive for the all the same things.  Why are we so brisk and cold to another? I think we all need a lesson in civility. Let us find it within ourselves to be kinder, to be friendlier, to be happier, to be more open to one another's beliefs, and to be a little more understanding of one another. It's not that hard, just look throughout your day for opportunities to be kind to one another. We all breath the same air, we are all searching for happiness, we all want the same things, so instead of doing this thing we call life against each other, let us all do it together and it will make things a whole lot easier for the lot of us. I promise. As we all search for meaning and peace of mind in this world, and as we all strive to find our own individual truths throughout our lives and our days, l think it can be found in each and every one of us. Life is great when we do it together, when we look out for each other; less fighting, more humanity I say. Of course it is easier said than done, but let's see what happens when we all realize how similar we all are to each other and let's let civility reigns free. Let us look for beauty, hope, love, kindness, truth, and faith in one another, and let's see where that takes us. We all have so much to live for, let us regret nothing, and always remember to dare to disturb the universe.

Thank you all for listening, your ever faithful friend on this crazy journey we call life,

Life

Sometimes life can overwhelming. But the key I believe to overcoming all the things you want to is just by trusting the fact that hopefully things will all work out. It is a hard thing to do to have faith and hope at the same time. But the beauty of it is that they work so gloriously well together. We start with hope we move to faith then we have hope for the result we desire. All we have to do in this life is to continue on the path and I hope we will find our way home again.

Hope is a good thing

Let us all look a little deeper and find that hope that instills courage in all of us. It's there let's just find it, wherever it may be. I for one can see hope in all of humanity, it's hard to find sometimes, but there it is the rainbow after the rain, the sun rising after the darkness had persisted. We grow, we learn, we persevere, we keep going, we don't stop, we just fight our way out of the darkness. Always knowing that after the storm comes the hope that keeps us going through life.
