Act II....moving on.

I've heard that we only use a small part of our brain. Maybe our soul is the same way. And maybe we're half asleep most of our lives, simply reacting to the stimulus our brain receives. Action, true action is rare indeed. actually, i read somewhere that mistakes are the privilege of souls this side of the grave. That is to say, a choice is an amazing gift, so choose to live life to the fullest...in action (not living it up with fun). i am more aware than ever of my own weaknesses, and the mistakes that I make often. I'm also very aware of my inability to satisfy everybody all the time. Sometimes these failures can be very discouraging. so, take action, and also.....here's to revolution!

the image

Every one wants to look a certain way to the general public, to have a certain image. i think that the image that i want comes from the people i look up to or admire. its not just random. i see certain people touching peoples lives with their talent, personality, passion, and goals and i am inspired to immitate them. This can be good or it can be bad. if we spend our lives obsessing over an image that we would like to have, and how to fit into it, we wont become anything real; we'll be living a life of make-believe. but we've got to realize that we cannot compare ourselves with anyone, but we should be ourselves (not in the cliche sort of way). if the things that you admire about other people are truly in your heart, a part of you, it will come out in your words and actions....therefore creatitng an image...the perfect image for you. am i making sense?? i guess this has been on my mind lately because i am realizing that the way people see me is not always going to be the same. everyone comes from a different place (not like a different country, like a different state of mind), so, i am working on not getting flustered, and wondering whats wrong with me when someone doesnt see me the way i want them to.
