Hope and seek
I need light; lightness of heart, lightness of soul, lightness of mind. And I’m not going to find it here, in the darkness of my own self-pity. Life is good and I want nothing more but to see it that way and to be happy about it. It seems so simple, to want to be happy. Simplexity at it’s finest; irony at it’s cruelest. Comfort at it’s highest need; contentment at...
Light at the end of the tunnel
I would be no where without my friends; I’d be stuck in the holes I dig for myself when I disappear into my own misery and self-loathing. I’d be so empty and lost that I wouldn’t have it in me to find a way out of my sadness and I’d be so deep in a forest of shame that I’d be an endless pit of dark feelings. I am so grateful for friends who accept and love me for...

We can break these chains; we made them up...
“If I believe in any God at all, my God exists in music. I know this because music makes me happy and that’s the point of having a God. God isn’t responsible for Wal-Mart or for the War on terror; therefore, I don’t blame God. I believe those things happen by people who forget to look up and see what God is. They kind of ruin it for the rest of us. But then again, maybe their God gives...
Blessed
I’m going to celebrate being alive!
This whole positive thinking thing will always be working to my advantage. Some of The Secret was mumbo-jumbo… but I’ll consistently be grateful for the lessons it’s taught me about the power of positive thinking.
It’s nearly impossible to not have my doubts… but life is good! And my friends and family are perfect in all...

This could be interesting.
A good friend under unusual circumstances has tossed me towards Tumblr. I appreciate him and this. I need a new outlet.
To that friend… your passion for friends and love inspires me constantly. Always keep your heart open and allow your soul to grow.
