Patience is the key to everything, and that's something I'm going to have to work on. I need to learn how to develop and improve upon this aspect of my character. It's the tranquility I'm interested in; keep cool and balanced. I feel the more I learn to be patient, the more I learn to invest in time. Our life is ticking away. So the more I make time work for me, the better.

When time works for me, mistakes become answers, risks become opportunities, and failures become growth. Time is the greatest teacher and I'm willing to learn.

The Hourglass

In reminiscence,
a thought dawned upon me
quicker than the winter sunset.
Of how the sand of time flows
without a second thought.
It leaves stragglers blind
in the shadows of the past;
no time to look back,
what's done is done.
Tomorrow has already begun.
Tomorrow has already begun,
what's done is done.
No time to look back
into the shadows of the past;
it leaves stragglers blind
without a second thought.
The sand of time flows
quicker than the winter sunset.
And a thought dawned upon me
of reminiscence.

Procrastination: My biggest enemy. I have a bad habit of leaving things until the end. I suppose, however, I get the job done and that's what matters the most, right? Although, I do pay the consequences. For example, today I finished up an accounting group assignment but didn't finish in time for a birthday dinner. I feel reckless. I should up my game and do things in small parts over a period of time. That way, I'll have less stress and more time for other people.

I'm a night crawler. I like to stay up late and roam around outside, blasting my music in my car, cruising the high way; it's my escape. The darkness isn't scary at all: reality is. And that's exactly what the light shows.

The day is the time for procrastination. The night is the time for relaxation. The moon guides me and the sun blinds me. Close my eyes and I begin to dream. Open them and I begin to scream. Let me go and go let me, hurry, hurry, hurry!

Hypo's

Me: Have a good one!
Customer: How can I have a good one? I'm working'!
Me: Well, we can always try, right?
Customer: That is true.
Me: *Hands change to customer*
Customer: Thanks, have a good one!

Some people are weird. They complain about something and then completely flips around and does the exact thing that they were complaining about. What's the word I'm looking for? Ah, yes: Hypocrite. I guess we're all hypocrites once in a while. It's up to other people to make these hypo's see things from a different perspective. That's right, I just called them hypo's, kind of like the animal hippopotamus. That was surprisingly hard to spell on the keyboard.

Anywho, moral of the story for today: Don't be such a downer. I catch myself playing that part a lot lately. Gotta open up my eyes and stay optimistic.

Hammer Time

My body is in pain! But it's the good type of pain; the one from working out for the first time after about two years. So it's about time I got my lazy ass up and start lifting some weights! Taking care of my physical self is now a priority for me. I need to stay healthy so I can feel good about waking up every day. I remember how it was back in 2008: feeling invincible like I was able to take on the world. Yeah, it's hammer time. Speaking of my well-being, I also need to get back in to the habit of writing things down. Ever since the blog site Galoomba.com (previously known as Calgaryplanet.com) shut down, I haven't been keeping up-to-date with my daily blogs. It's been almost a year now and I feel the need to keep my brain just as active as my body, which I'm hoping will provide a healthy balance in my life.

In retrospect, it's all about the pursuit of happiness. I felt unaccomplished lately and things need to change. My life isn't balanced and I noticed I've been really cranky and selfish lately and easily annoyed. Unfortunately for my girlfriend and the people closest to me, they have to put up with my heartless remarks and actions and I feel like shit for it. I don't want to feel like that anymore. So this is it, 2010. It's my time to shine.

Old Epiphany Blog

I had an epiphany tonight as I was walking home! You see, there is a dark spot near my house, a field, with no lights. I was walking on the pavement and I happened to see a white dot ahead of me up in the cloudless sky. I assumed it was a plane that had made its way up into the atmosphere, ready to travel across the lands, however, it did not move. I instantly looked up only to see a dazzling spectacle of twinkling lights: Stars! It was beautiful. I was marveled and intrigued by the twilight of outer space. Of course, I was still walking with my head tilted up and noticed I had strayed off the path I was previously walking on. Now before I reveal my epiphany, allow me to explain something you may or may not have already known. As science has it, light has a maximum velocity. Therefore, in theory, the stars we see in the sky are light waves that took time to reach the earth. In other words, when looking at the many stars in the sky, we're looking into the past. My epiphany was that if you keep looking into the past, good or bad, you will start straying off the path you were once taking. Be aware of your surroundings and, although it is great to have memories, look forward and keep moving. Work your way back to the path and head for home.

My Girlfriend is Dope

Hey there, buddy.
You're like a friend to me, the best.
So let's forget about the rest
of my problems and spend the time in this cloudy space out
in this freshly intoxicated atmosphere
and rejoice with smokey tears.
My Juliet.
Kiss me and fill my lungs with sweet poison.
Send me into a tranquil trance and comfort my feelings
away from any tragedy
where I can be
free
from society
who keeps telling me
that I can't be
your Romeo, please!
Let them see
I only want to be
free.
