It seems to me like life really does come down to perspective. While a case can be made for the idea that life is good and that therefore human beings are ultimately good, there’s also quite a case to be made for the idea that humanity and the planet are ultimately evil and corrupt. Although … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 108: Perspective

500 WORDS, DAY 107: Keeping One’s Inner Child Alive
Aldous Huxley, one of my favorite writers, wrote about the importance of keeping one's inner child alive even through the hardest of situations. What is so unique about a child's perspective on the world? Well, one thing I think makes a child's perspective on life not only very unique and fresh, but also quite wise … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 107: Keeping One’s Inner Child Alive
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 103: Life is Crazy
Life is fucking crazy. Sometimes I struggle to get my daily writing started because I feel like whatever I write has to come to some eventual conclusion, and must have some sort of message or lesson to it. Why would that be the case though? Fuck it. I'll just say what I have to say … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 103: Life is Crazy
500 WORDS, DAY 102: All That is Good and Pure
Let us dedicate ourselves to the pursuit of all that is good and pure, of all that builds character in us and that uplifts our spirit, since it’s all we’ll be taking with us when we depart from this material existence. Let us rise above all the petty nonsense, all the arguing and bickering, and … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 102: All That is Good and Pure
500 WORDS, DAY 101: Separating Art & Artist?
I always knew that the entertainment world was probably full of weirdos, and to be honest that didn’t surprise me because, as an artist, I find myself pretty weird as well, and I can tell that a lot of artists are very unique people who like to make their own rules. I’ve previously written about … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 101: Separating Art & Artist?
500 WORDS, DAY 100: I Appreciate You Reading!
Today is my hundredth day in a row of writing and posting at least five hundred words on this blog. It’s cool to see that my thoughts resonate with some people, even if it’s just a few people here and there. One of the coolest things about reading something like philosophy, or other people’s ideas … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 100: I Appreciate You Reading!
500 WORDS, DAY 99: Weed: Zooming Into Your Thoughts
I’ve seen a lot of posts online from people who have decided to quit weed because all of a sudden, after many years of use without any issues, they’ve started having nothing but anxious and paranoid experiences with it, some that have even ended up spiraling into full-blown panic attacks. Reading these kinds of posts … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 99: Weed: Zooming Into Your Thoughts
500 WORDS, DAY 98: Don’t Waste Your Life
Another day ends and we think nothing of it. We don’t feel any older, yet our body knows it, and so does our mind. The mind is no longer the same, but that same mind can’t perceive it. Changes are inevitable, and they happening constantly. These changes are all happening way too quickly for us … Continue reading 500 WORDS, DAY 98: Don’t Waste Your Life
