Stay vigilant, and be aware of complications that could arise, but don’t dwell on possible disaster. Life is full of danger, but it is also full of beauty and amazing experiences. So much of our lives, and whether we feel comfortable and happy with them, comes down to how we perceive life, with how we … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 127: Choose Your Thoughts

500 WORDS, DAY 106: Stream of Consciousness (Pt. 3)
Stream of consciousness. I guess I’ll start with this though I just thought of: It reminds me of an audiobook I really love by Ram Dass, titled The Journey of Awakening. It starts out describing a typical person’s morning, waking up and finding oneself bombarded by “a raging, roaring river of thoughts” about everything from … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 106: Stream of Consciousness (Pt. 3)
500 WORDS, DAY 83: Spontaneous Writing. Life Keeps Going.
I’m a person. I’m a human being. I love life. Life is hard. Hard things are often worth doing. Life is a challenge, but it’s a blessing to get to live it. I don’t know what to write about, so I’m writing random facts down. I like writing. I think there’s a reason for my … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 83: Spontaneous Writing. Life Keeps Going.
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 49: What Is Unique Other Than Weird?
When I write about my fascination with the random and weird, the reality is that it comes from a place of understanding. It comes from a place of truly understanding that we are all unique, each and every one of us, and I don’t mean to say that in a cheesy, seemingly inspirational way, I … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 49: What Is Unique Other Than Weird?
500 WORDS, DAY 40: Time Can’t Be Easily Defined
Yesterday I wrote about time. It’s been a recurring topic all throughout this newest writing experiment of mine, of which today marks the fortieth consecutive day. Time has also been a recurring concern of mine for as long as I can remember. Time; this invisible yet inescapable, incredibly mysterious concept that seems to be totally … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 40: Time Can’t Be Easily Defined
500 WORDS, DAY 39: Hidden In Plain Sight
I’ve been writing about time and about life and death in general, as well as what I think are some of the most important ideas associated with these topics, mainly topics that come up whenever we as humans contemplate life and death. I’ve also been writing a lot about creativity and art, about what it … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 39: Hidden In Plain Sight
500 WORDS, DAY 37: Immersion in Life
Having written all that I have so far about time, you might just say that I’m being unfair when I say that work as we know it is most likely not the best possible way of spending our precious time on earth, because in order to remain alive for the rest of the hours of … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 37: Immersion in Life
500 WORDS, DAY 35: I Am That I Am
We left off yesterday with the question of whether time is the ultimate reality or the ultimate illusion? We take time for granted precisely because it feels no different than reality itself. What’s the feeling of time? Think about it. Isn’t it just the feeling of life passing by, therefore being the feeling behind every … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 35: I Am That I Am
DAY 17 (1000 WORDS, 3rd attempt)
It's time to take control of your life and be who you were meant to be. It's time to let go of old attachments, to let go of all insecurities and doubts; life is simply too short to spend it crying over spilled milk. What's done is done, it is what it is. I have … Continue reading DAY 17 (1000 WORDS, 3rd attempt)
