inspiration

can be found anywhere. myself, i get inspiration for nearly everything i do from obvious things like trees, the weather, other people, birds, && the wonder that is life. these are all out of order, but are followed by music. don't get me wrong, music is absolutely amazing. i listen to it a lot, && it affects my mood drastically. just today, i was having a decent day until i listened to a slower, more dramatic song. ironically, the lyrics alone are supposed to give youh hope [more or less] but combined with seemingly creepy music, && it can just bum youh out. this couldve been resolved easily, but i then made the mistake of listening to it again, realizing that my friends blew me off for food, && various other things including a massive headache && BAM! bad day. although this is just one example of why music should not be people's only inpiration in life, it is the most recent one && stll hurting my head so i decided to mention it.. ANYWAYS.

people that place their life into the hands of just one thing often times feel glorified && superior when with other people that do not share that single reason for life. i feel bad for them [quite the honestly]. like the anime people or the gangster people. whatever it is, their one inspiration leads them to look silly for a while without ever realizing it as their own image of themselves stays. this is apparent with has-beens that still live in whatever age they were famous && decide to never ever change their style.

me, i'm getting older. while i realize that music is amazing && i love discussing bands && stuff, i know that that's not the only thing that keeps my universe going. i know that it is not even the general things forementioned, but also the small things, like mixmatching earrings, opening a new can of tennis balls, or watching the history channel, help me get through my day && inspire me to do it all again tomorrow.
