Went to sleep in Paris...woke up in Tokyo

These last few days I’ve been forced to make a few decisions. Although they were nothing major, it has altered my pathway a bit. I’m proud that I’ve actually taken some risks and stepped out of my comfort zone. It’s a scary yet, pleasant feeling. Usually when things get too comfortable and what you’re doing no long stimulates or challenges you; it’s time to move on. And that’s exactly what I’m doing, moving on. Anyway, I’m feeling really relaxed. I’m listening to Lupe Fiasco’s song “Paris to Tokyo” remix ft. Pharell, Q-Tip and Sarah Green. It’s such a great song *on repeat.*  I live for moments like this, where I feel like no one can tell me anything and I can do whatever I please. I wish this feeling would never ever leave. I hope whenever I’m down in the dumps and I feel like everything is crumbling around me that I can remember this moment. Because right now man oh man I feel like streaking through the park and not caring who’s looking, just running free. I feel like people get so caught up in trying to please others, trying to maintain a certain image, trying to evolve into a person who they are not. There is nothing wrong with just being you. Always try to be the best YOU that you can be. But I get it because sometimes I sit back and watch other people and I’m like, “damn that person is making moves. That person is going places. That person has it all!” Then I remind myself that, that person isn’t me. Instead of being envious I let that person become my inspiration, if they can do it, I can certainly do it too. I’m going to do it better! What’s so beautiful about this life is that tomorrow can always be a new beginning. Tomorrow you can wake-up with a new and improved attitude. But why wait ‘til tomorrow? Make it happen NOW! Why not? Stop thinking about it and do it. Thinking about it too much is just wasting time. Grab on to the next second. Don’t make it difficult. It’s simple. It’s like Jesse Jackson once said, “If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it, then I know I can achieve it!” And with that I wish all my darlings a wonderful day! XoXXoXXo

This made me laugh. It reminded me of a friendlol.

About Me

My photo
Alight, so my life truly isn't overly exciting. I am a simple girl who enjoys the simple things in life. I have big dreams and plan to turn them into a reality one day. I hate to categorize myself because I can honestly put a little of myself into almost every category. Can't we all? I have several different sides. I'm a 3 dimensional kind of girl. I am who I am and I gracefully resign for all that I am not. At the end of the day, I'm just living MY life the best way I know how. xoxo
