Today....
What's up, today was a productive yet tiring day. Woke up around 12 ish, loafted, watched some shows. Headed to church at like 3 ish for worship practise...on a saturday, I know -_-...ended at like 5:30 ish, just in time for my driving class at 6. Only thing was dude came at 6:30 -_-...waited around 30 minutes for this dude. Finally got into the car and drove, he said I'm def really good, turning is dope now, 3 point turns are nice, gotta be more confident and parallel parking, gotta figure out a 45 degree angle, that's all. Been a long weekend, from planning all day friday to leading friday night, to back at church on saturday, then driving. Then tomorrow I'm leading songs, followed by a meeting at Bridal Trail Baptist Church, then back to my church for worship practise again...sigh, then driving at 1 on Monday, then ball at night like 8 ish. Can't find my indoor gym shoes...mad cheese, they're either in my locker at school or at home somewhere...
From The Heart: Life Part 2
Life is tough, it's filled with obstacles, trials, temptations, problems, everything. But it's all apart of life, it helps us grow, mature, learn and become better people. As of late, at the first sigh of trouble and problems, people seem to give up, run away, sweep it under the carpet or avoid it in general. That's just really disappointing man, when you're given a test or a puzzle or something and you can't solve it, do you just give up and be like uh whatever I'll just fail, no...you try different methods, figured out where you went wrong, try to fix it, don't stop until you get it. Life is the same thing...when life throws an obstacle at you, you're not gonna be liek...you know, I'm too tired, it's too hard, I'm just going to stop where I am and live life the way I am for the rest of my life. As humans, as people...we're meant to grow, learn from each other, our surroundings...we're meant to change, adapt, become better. It really annoys me when people run away from their problems thinking it'll go away, thinking someone else will do it for them. how do you expect to grow as a person. If you constantly run away from the same problem, it won't go away, it'll keep coming back and everytime it comes back, you'll run away. If life were easy, it wouldn't be worth it. A rollercoaster isn't fun if it only goes down. It's the ups in the rollercoaster that make you nervous, excited and ready for the downs, it makes the downs more fun. In life, if everything were fine and dandy, rainbows and flowers...yeah you would be happy, but you wouldn't relaly appreciate it. It's the downs, the pains, the tears, the blood, the sweat that makes you appreciate everyhting so much more, that makes it worth it, that makes you appreciate all the little things that you've been through. You can't have a rainbow and sun without having a little bit of rain you know, It's not how far you STILL have to go, but it's HOW FAR you've already come. If you just ran straight from the start line to the finish line, yeah you finished but so...if you go through obstacles, trials, tests, things designated to STOP you...you'll feel so much more accomplished, because it took you so much effort and work to get there, you'll appreciate it more. That's what I'm saying...problems are apart of life, but conquering it makes life so much more enjoyable and fun. Yeah it's hard, it's painful, you don't wanna at times...but you have to come at it with a positive mentality. You don't approach a test thinking, oh man I'm gonna fail, otherwise you've already failed. You don't go into war thinking, what if we lose, what if I die...cuz then you will. You have to attack life with a positive mindset, find the good even when things seem bad. You have waaaay too many things in your life to be HAPPY and THANKFUL for to be sad and mad about a few things that aren't going your way. That's just me man, life is important, precious, cherish it, appreciate it, life it, enjoy it.
From The Heart: Friendship Part 3
Check out parts 1 and 2 if you haven't, search it up in the bar on top. Anyways yeah, I wrote this on my phone a while ago so I wouldn't forget and I forgot about it, but found it now and I remember. I was thinking about friendships and just relationships with people as a whole. I was thinking like wow...I've really drifted away from some people, grown apart from a lot of people who I was really close with. At the same time, I've grown close to lots of people who I'd never thought I would have in a million years, and lastly...all the people who I've maintained close relationships with and have known for quite a long time. It's just sad...the people I've drifted apart from, especially the ones who I was really close with, the ones who I use to share my world with, tell my world to, invite them into my life, my heart. To see how far we've grown apart, to casual individuals and casual conversations, damn. Then there's the people who I'd have never thought I would grow close to, to let them in on my inner most secrets, my world. It just shows you...that you have to give everyone a chance, because as great as it is to be friends with people who have similar interests, it is true that opposites attract...you never know who you can bond with, talk to and just chill with. You just have to give people a chance...some people say they're open to meeting new people, but they really aren't...what they're really saying is I wanna meet people who are exactly like me or people who like the same things as me...they aren't really giving a chance to everyone. Lastly...the people who I've known for a long period of time and have been close with throughout all that time or maybe lost it for a bit but renewed it later on. It's crazy to think how long we've known each other, how much we've been through, endured, experienced. These people are really dear to me cuz I grew up with these people, these people were there for me...they impacted me, influenced me. Friendship is so powerful, everyone needs somebody...as smart, strong or independent as someone is...we all need someone...to love us, care for us, comfort us, teach us, learn from us...whatever. We all need somebody, I love my friends and I value each one of them. There are my friends who we share interests, play sports together, game together...there are my friends who we can talk to about anything, share anything, be ourselves...there are my friends who we are so different, from different cliques...yet we get along so well. I have friends of all different shapes, sizes, cliques, races, cultures, backgrounds, interests...anything...you never know who you're going to click with and you never know who you're going to just have chemistry with...you have to give everyone a chance, a real chance. I'm thankful for all my friends and all the situations that led me to me meeting them...yeah, I love my friends and everything they've done for me, all the times they've been there for me...I love them with all my heart and I would die for these people, they are my family away from home.
