A thought

Recently I've been having a certain thought in mind. Some might see it as morbid, but I see it as important: I'm going to die. Now, its not a constant thought that just lingers in my mind and worries me. It actually inspires me. It motivates me to be more productive, but not work myself to the bone (obviously, since I'm on the internet typing a blog). It also allows me to really think about what I have and be thankful for everything.

I am very fortunate to have loving family and friends, many opportunities that a lot of people don't have, etc. I have noticed that I haven't told these people in my life how much they mean to me. I've been working on doing this and letting them know. Along with showing love to family and friends, I've been trying to do the same to complete strangers. Even the smallest gesture can affect someone, so why not let it be a good one?

Lastly, I've been buying a lot of strange instruments on Craigslist. Some people think its stupid, others think its pretty awesome. The reason for this is the fact that you only get one chance to learn, so why not learn as many instruments as you can and just have fun with it? Enjoy music, play as much music as you can on everything that you can.

I just wanted to write that out. Think about it. Tell someone that you love them. Enjoy and embrace everything.


"I was glad that I'd taken the time to tell my parents just
how much I love them whenever I could. You see, the, the
people in your life, the people in your life that you love,
well, you gotta let them know how you feel cause one day,
that opportunity, it's gonna be gone."- Fred Leblanc

"There are two things that I want you to make up your minds to: first, that you are going to have a good time as long as you live - I have no use for the sour-faced man - and next, that you are going to do something worthwhile, that you are going to work hard and do the things you set out to do." - Teddy Roosevelt
