Just some random thoughts.

Randomness...

I like to take a different approach.

On a positive note,

I must encroach

upon your sea of negativity. 

Stilling the rough water,

into peaceful serenity.

I wake up and I am happy. I look around, and I see every aspect of what is good. I would be ashamed to complain when I know just how lucky I really am. It is not because I come from a wealthy home, because I don't. It's not because my life lacks problems, because it doesn't. It is not because of some amazing thing that has just happened. It is because I choose to focus on what is good. It is because I don't allow others to dictate my mood or well being. It is because I am aware of issues that go far beyond my personal microcosm. It is because I derive joy from making others feel good. It is because I hold nothing on my conscience. It is because every single day, I make the choice to make it a good day, and when I fall short, I try again tomorrow. I am happy because I approach the world in an almost child-like manner, exploring everything as if it were the first time I'd seen it. We are here, on this earth, temporarily, and while we are here, we can choose to imprison ourselves with a negative thought process  which could lead to something I'd assume is quite similar to an internal hell... OR we can learn to take certain things with a grain on salt, and move forward. We must not harp on every little issue we think we have. We needn't gripe over the little inconveniences. To every negative, there is a positive and vice versa. It is not what you look at, it is what you see. 

Everywhere I look, art is present. Because "art" is so far beyond a painting, a song, a photograph... art is the creation of something and is fueled by the inner workings, feelings, and inspiration of it's creator, therefore art starts with inspiration. Art will always have a special place in my soul.
