stumbling choices

i could not decide what my mind wanted to post. 

yet how frustrating it can be. i get a lot out of myself and stumble on things that have meaning in one way or another when  i procrastinate and do everything unplanned. just got me thinking about choices. 

i was told this over the summer from one of my idols. i want to live it one day. and actually embrace its power.

CHOICE IS THE biggest LUXURY

Art Alive

Life is an art. In these flashing moments...

I see Art in an old soul, fleeting smiles, and sunlight striking a child across blushing cheeks.

I open and shut my weary eyes, pretending I'm taking pictures.

I'll post them up in the walls of my brain cavity. I want to remember these moments forever.

The times where the light is golden, The car is going so fast I can't focus on a single thing, and those times I just want to spin and spin with my eyes shut, head up towards the sky.

I won't remember what shoes I was wearing, or how I did my hair that day.

I'll just get a feeling that I can't pin down, and I'll know I'm alive.

Sincerely Twiggs

Sweet Darkness

When your eyes are tired

the world is tired also.

When your vision has gone

no part of the world can find you.

Time to go into the dark

where the night has eyes

to recognize its own.

There you can be sure 

you are not beyond love.

The dark will be your womb

tonight.

The night will give you a horizon

further than you can see.

You must learn one thing:

the world was made to be free in.

Give up all the other worlds 

except the one to which you belong.

Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet

confinement of your aloneness

to learn

anything or anyone

that does not bring you alive

is too small for you.

walk on.

You have the choice to live life they way you want.

or walk away from it all.

I have a dear friend that recently moved to new york. no job. not knowing what to expect.

not even knowing if it will work out in the end.

but she went for it.

packed her stuff up and left;

because that is what she wanted.

Obviously at this point in my life. i can't pack up and travel the world.

but her brave step forward in life affected me..

and made me want to follow my dreams that much more.

so i thank her.

for inspiring me to walk on.

discovering your "me-ish-ness"

I'm finding it less and less appealing to be around people just for the sake of being around people. I truly love spending time with myself and just being. Although I feel like I may be turning into somewhat recluse it feels so right. Actually, I think it's exactly what i need right now. Yes, having and spending time with friends and acquaintances is great and all but I think i'm really passing that period of my life where I crave constant external stimulation. Time to seriously take a seat in my soul and turn within for longer periods of time.

Determination

your almost craving your destination, you feel like your heart is going to come out of your chest its beating so hard, and your feeling that even if you had a chance to take in all the oxygen in the world it wouldn't satisfy your need for it at this moment, legs are starting to loose feeling but ache at the same time and you even consider if this is possible, your feet hit the cold wet earth at a constant beat you want to stop but almost feel like your legs have taken control and just keep hitting the ground over and over again, you finally have spotted the goal you have set up for yourself, foot by foot you get closer now your there, but then suddenly you have this drive to go on past into the unfamiliar, you dont know why you feel this way but you all the sudden tune everything out you go above the pain above your lungs collapsing and push forward, when you finally realize you can do this, you know you have your own individual determination.
