The Optimistic Pessimist

Life is hard. But its not impossible.
the struggles break you to make you. Were given obstacles and born in situations we can't control. But you do have control of where you want to be in life. The pursuit of happiness is what life is about. You have to get poured on before you get the sunny breeze. When life seems impossible you just think of the impossible and how possible things really are. If you're given dirt in life plant a flower start a garden. Unfortunately people are born with nothing doesn't mean it's what you have and what's mean to be. When you're knocked down you have to get back up. You'll never know happiness if you don't feel pain. You'll never know relaxed if you're never stressed. Life is a game and every time things get messed up you restart it til you beat the master and smile for the credits rolling. Struggle will only make happiness and success much sweeter. Just when you think you got it bad somebody has it worse with an even bigger dream than yours. As hard as life may be work harder everybody who gets dirt deserves clean cut grass and beautiful bloomed flowers.

American Nightmare

2011-01-22T18:50:00.003-05:00

"Hey miss do you work here ? ... Can you give me a price on this ?" My reply was yes but i really wanted to say, "Unfortunately I do." Working at a retail store isn't the "American Dream" for anybody. I hope not. Minimum wage is like owning a pair of Shaqs, when you know you want a pair of Jordan's. Once upon a time, your ancestors or even as recent as your parents, came to the U.S.A for a better life. If there is more than just chump change and horrible hours at a Target, why settle for less. "Yea yea yea yea there's a party in the USA !" That's what Miley Cyrus said. How can you party anywhere if you're living pay check-to-pay check ? I am living the American Nightmare. If i had a quarter for every time I wished I had more money I would probably be Diddy rich. But they (whoever they is) says, you must go through the hurricane to see the sunshine. As i slave the days away at a retail store I start to want more and more for myself. I now know more than ever I need to get on my grind and push it to the limit. If Sky is the limit why am i still underground. We come from the land of freedom and opportunities, why not take advantage. What ever it is you do be the best at it and strive for better. The "American Dream" is not a made up thing but an "I made it" thing. You living in a nightmare and only you have what it takes to make your dreams a reality. Live out your fantasies and believe in the impossibles. When in doubt, just think of all those who came from nothing to fast cars and expensive wines. Although the fancy things in life are not important but the state of mind of comfort. Work hard for a better tomorrow. Pursuit your own happiness cause nobody else will. What ever it is you believe is a great life ... GO FOR IT ! "Reach for the stars so if you fall you land in a cloud" - Kanye West. In other words where ever you reach ... reach high.

The Past

2009-10-21T19:05:00.008-04:00

Sometimes the past isn't just the past its a stamp in your life. There are some events in your life that may change your whole life and the way you view it. Some people will tell you "get over it" or "that was the past who cares" but you just cant because of the effect it had on you. Whether it was a breakdown, failure, lost a loved one, or heartbreak the event lives with you forever. Life isn't what it always seems to be. Just when you think one way of life you get a surprise SLAP in the face. Life is hard whether you are 17, 18, 40 and maybe even as young as 11. As people get older they forget about their past and tell young adults that life is easy for us. They're right in a way. Life isn't as hard as theirs is but there are definitely very hard bumpy obstacles. Some things young adults go through seem impossible to get through. I contradict myself everytime on whether the past is meanigless or meaningful. The past is just the past and if you are alive in the present then you have made it. The past is just the past but it lives on with you as long as you live.
