This day in history is a day where LPs became popularized when Columbia Records dropped the needle on some timeless tracks ✌🏾📚
Views from the inflatable pool José on vocals Sara on guitar It’s the night of the fourth During the 6th month of the year We got off work Dripping and pouring w/ sweat And ended up in this lovely home Exactly where we should’ve been What a lovely mid summer moment
I’m starting to find myself thinking about what I’m suppose to do versus what I want to do.
If the spirit says move then I move
And sometimes I stop and think ... wait
Why did I do that let me go back
But now I’m coming to a point where I don’t question it
I just go
I may think upon what just happened
But no longer am I trying to make myself comfortable
Change is uncomfortable
Change is different
But if you wanted to be comfortable you didn’t want to change
If you wanted to different then you don’t want to be comfortable
Comfort will come in the end
As your reward for the success for all your hard work
But the end is not now
The end is near
So we gotta get all the work in that was assigned before dad comes home
I was suppose to take the chicken out the freezer 2 hours ago and now he’s down the street
Don’t wait.
Do what’s asked when it’s asked
Your only wasting time
Be obedient
And see the fruits you bare
Today I watched a movie about a 9 year old who didn’t like to make decision unless he knew how it would change his life.
In this film I thought about myself
Naturally
And the unnatural parts about me
Like
And this is no joke
Sometimes I think I see the future
I use to say I could either see myself dying really young or really old and there was never any in between
I’ve seen my life with a boy
I’ve seen our family
I’ve seen the Christmas card
I’ve seen us taking over the world
I’ve seen myself with another boy
And us rocking in chairs together
Us laying in bed as the kids ran up and down the halls
I’ve seen us holding hands over breakfast
And bickering before bed
I’ve seen a life where I’m with a women
And she makes me the happiest I’ve ever been in my entire life
Never is there a moment that we don’t see the brighter side of things
We live in California I think
Because every time I think of us it’s always so sunny
Sometimes I see myself alone
I have a cat
And I mostly wear simple blacks and Denim
I work hard
My home has few plants
I get so much accomplished and I am really successful
But I’m alone
I’ve seen a life where I die at 27
With a white lighter in my hand
I lived an artsy life
I had enough stories for everyone to talk about st the funeral
But I was never truly myself
I was drowning in my obsession of chasing happiness
And one day I don’t make it
I’ve seen myself jump from many ledges
Crash the same car over and over
Crash someone else car
I’ve seen myself as an old lady who lives at the end of the culd es sac
I bake pies
And give piano lessons
I wave at the kids who board the bus for school
It’s actually just the house at the end of my block now
I’ve seen myself many different ways but which one is right
I don’t think I’ve decided yet
Sometimes I’ve seen myself on a path
And I know I could choose it
It’s clear as day what that life would be
But something says no
Something says this isn’t meant for me
And I listen
And I turn away
I may be left in known
But it’s my life to discover
I’ll figure it out
And each choice I make is always the right one
Even the choices I didn’t make
They were right too
Just for a different me
Or a me that doesn’t know it’s me
And sometimes
Things I didn’t choose now just weren’t meant for this moment
We can’t go back
Nothing with ever be the same
And time will always move forward regardless if we’re pushing it or standing still and it’s passing by
But whatever is meant to be will be
If I said no today maybe tomorrow it’ll be
If I said goodbye last week maybe in the next twenty years I’ll be ready for our next hello
Maybe I made a decision that made it easier for someone else to make another decision
Maybe I oberlooked something for someone else to find
Maybe I’m not the me I want to be
Maybe the me I didn’t choose is still waiting for me to discover her
Or them
Or him
But the me I am is the me I was meant to be
The me I will be was always meant for me
I’ll get there
Because I am me
I am me
I am
I
Do you feel me?
Do you see me?
I know you see me
But can you feel me?
What do you see?
What do you feel?
Does it match what I see?
What I feel?
Can you see what I feel?
Do I exude?
Do I absorb?
Do I reflect?
what if ..
Can you feel me?
Build relationships not memories of artificial presences
Relationship goals are images and ideas
Relationship goals are false things we share to create a fantasy
Relationships aren’t goals
A face is not a goal
An outfit is not the goal
A post is not a goal
The appearance is not the goal
Relationships are built when you know someone
Growth comes from the giving and taking shared being
Grow with someone
Know yourself
Get to mold yourself
Don’t be so quick to think of what you can do for one another
Allow yourselves to be and share experiences and allow each other’s presence in the experience to shape what you become
What you do next
Who you are next
Just be
Be
Allow yourself to be
And watch yourself become
…yeah you cute but are you good for my mental health
Accept.
Love. Accept. Repeat.
“Souls are funny things. They stay constant even when the outside changes, or when the heart makes mistakes. Souls don’t really care about good or bad, right or wrong — they’re just true.”
— Miranda July
Galaxies sparkle
They dance and shimmer
Slide and skate
Stars beam across worlds
Sharing their light
Their energy
Moving constantly
Somersaulting through voids of space
Like a child
Like a breeze
Like water
But it’s light
Energy
Felt but not seen
Corrupting darkness
Emulating
Illuminating
Exuding
Preciousness
The fragility and strength of that energy
Can build and destroy
Light that gives warmth to dust
Dust under pressure form rocks
Through manipulation
Intricate timing
And chance
Galaxies bear the the constant pleasure and pain of life.
Ok that’s actually disgusting, here’s a link to their gofundme
