on to some ranting, if you don't mind

So, I needed a kick in the ass. I'm writing a book right now. In fact it has been an obssession for nearly a year now, but I haven't been writing as much as I should be. So, this friend of mine says, "Hey, check out my blog." And I say, "What's a blog?" So I checked his out. How cool is this?! You write you want and people respond (or don't) and it' like your own personal world in here. I think I'm going to love it here. Now I feel a pressure to write even if it's crap, but at least it's writing. Life consumes us all to such a degree that we forget the important things. We tend to lose perspective and focus on the mundane. Ugh! Who wants that? Remember the days of youth (haha) when everything seemed possible and you would actually do all the things you said you would?

Some things you might consider:
throw a party in the middle of the street and piss off all your neighbors,
drink some beer with someone who doesn't speak your language,
take a road trip without any money,
find someone to be close to even if only for a night,
better yet, get in touch with a friend that you just can't stop thinking about,
have a really great game of pool and run the table,
read the best book ever in a single night,
quit spending so much time and energy on hate,
play a sad song and have a good cry,
tell a joke that actually makes someone laugh,
go buy that thing you saw in the store especially if you can't afford it,
wake up and share a cup of coffee with the sun,
conquer that stupid little fear you're too embarrassed to admit to,
dance to the music that plays only in your head,
tell someone or everyone how much they really mean to you.

Life is too f'n short to worry about the little things, but the little things always matter.
figure that one out...
