enjoying what is here

i love a good old ballad
it soothes the soul, and fills that void in your heart
it moves you along in the knowledge that every dog has its day, and that your time will come soon
it makes you cherish that life is ok, and acknolwedges that happihess is not truly reached unless you acknowledge you are living your life just the way you want to.

over these last few weeks i have come to realise that i have a blessed childhood, which i wouldn't trade for. it has instilled within me the desire for poverty, for humility of spirit.
i have epiphanies sometimes, where i breathe the salubrious air of my surrounds, glance upon the sunlight that cleaves through the green trees. i tear leaves and smell them.
the chlorophyll seeps through my nostrils, and i feel a visceral peace with every landscape. this is how i get high on life. i am very easily pleased.

i hope everybody takes time to acknowledge that life is beautiful. see life in technicolor, and not black and white.
and should your life become instable and defragment before your eyes, breathe deeply. you could take a dose of perspective. but more importantly, value yourself and know that you are in control of everything you do. it's your life, you have control, enjoy the control :)

love you
justin
