Music is something truly magical. It’s always been crazy to me how something like a chord progression or a drum rhythm can make you feel a certain way. The way certain instruments sound as well, like a beautiful saxophone or string solo in a song, is just heavenly. It can put you at ease and … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 61: Music is Magic

500 WORDS, DAY 60: Two of My Greatest Literary Inspirations
Today I thought I’d pay homage to some of the writers who have most inspired me to do this. One big influence on me is Jack Kerouac. I don’t remember what came first, me reading ‘On the Road’ or my fascination with the counterculture of the sixties, but I know whichever came second only amplified … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 60: Two of My Greatest Literary Inspirations
500 WORDS, DAY 59: Rearranging My Home Studio
It’s been a busy couple of days. My wife and I have been restructuring our room/home studio. We’re both extremely happy with the results so far, and after almost three days of moving stuff around and all over the place, throwing out trash, cleaning up, and everything in between, it’s finally starting to look like … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 59: Rearranging My Home Studio
500 WORDS, DAY 58: Sharing Your Life With Someone Special
It’s great to have someone you can trust one hundred percent. It’s the best feeling in the world to share your life with someone who you don’t have to feel uneasy around, someone who you know is putting in just as much energy as you are into your relationship, and who truly cares for it … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 58: Sharing Your Life With Someone Special
500 WORDS, DAY 57: Fascination with Life and its Mysteries
Everything seems corny and stupid to write about sometimes. Every idea seems ridiculous and simply not worth mentioning. I don’t know why it happens, since other days I write the exact same kinds of random things and I feel like it’s all good, like it just works. Today it just feels weird though, like, why … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 57: Fascination with Life and its Mysteries
500 WORDS, DAY 56: Fancy vs. Casual Writing?
I don’t know why I write about everything like it’s going on a damn philosophy book or some shit. Even right now, I had to delete that first sentence so I could rewrite it in the way I’d normally say it. I’m trying to write today’s post in a casual way, just as if I … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 56: Fancy vs. Casual Writing?
500 WORDS, DAY 55: Attention
Attention. Yesterday I wrote about influence. It was the first topic that came to mind when I thought of a word to write about, and I wrote about it for two days. I thought I might continue writing about influence today also, but I guess I just don’t feel up to it today. I’ve decided … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 55: Attention
500 WORDS, DAY 54: Influence Pt. 2
Yesterday I introduced the idea of changing up the method by which I get these daily posts done. The change I’m referring to is that now, instead of randomly writing about whatever comes to mind, in a sort of stream-of-consciousness manner, I will instead choose one specific topic to write about, and I will go … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 54: Influence Pt. 2
500 WORDS, DAY 53: Influence
I’ve been thinking of an idea for my daily writing post. Instead of just writing randomly I’ve been thinking of basically deciding on one word or subject per day, then writing whatever comes to mind about that subject and just going from there. Of course, I have to keep in mind that subjects might be … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 53: Influence
500 WORDS, DAY 52: Is Romance an External Search for Meaning?
Yesterday I was writing about love and romantic relationships, and how they can be a truly underrated source for finding meaning in one’s life, especially in today’s fast-paced, digital day and age. Now, you might say the notion of finding real meaning in love or romance is ridiculous in itself because, after all, how can … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 52: Is Romance an External Search for Meaning?
