so live!

To live is a challenge, a revolution, a constant reinvention

of yourself.

Do not listen to the idea of evolution,

take your soul and shake it,

in one swift motion

wipe your slate clean.

This is the beginning of something grand,

extraordinary!

Every one of your hopes is alive, is illuminated, is

breathing in time with you.

And you have the control.

This is your world.

You have the control-

to create beauty, life, a world you can love living in.

You are the

change-maker, pace-breaker

leader to those around you.

Be the change you wish to see,

and those around will follow.

watch me

Nobody can stop you, nobody will stop you

from growing, from blooming, from blossoming.

You decide your life

You don't need their permission or approval

It's all you.

Your choices are your beliefs,

show the world how you feel, who you are.

(Because you are beautiful

and the world could always use a little more beautiful)

"My life is my message" said Ghandi.

What do you want to show the world?

What do you have to teach?

Live your message.

People will stare, will stop, will pay attention:

you will change lives.

Fear

How can we grow if we are afraid to change?
How can we change if we are afraid to grow?

Change your world, starting with the small stuff. Sleep more. Paint your nails. Ride a bike, or take a bus to somewhere you've never been. Go to a farmer's market. Cook muffins and bring them to your neighbors. Petition for a cause you care about. Call the president. Design a t-shirt. Try foreign food. Go on a road trip, even if only for a day. Play. Go to a party. Put on a party. Sing loudly in the shower. Sing loudly in public. Cry when you're sad. Trust people. Give people a second chance. Learn to swim. Run a marathon. Make that phone call to the person you miss. Tell the person you love how you feel.

"Do one thing every day that scares you"

almost another year...

I found this awesome website the other day!

http://www.43things.com/

It's pretty cool, you can set goals online, record your progress, talk to others who want to do the same things, find out how people accomplished them, and all sorts of stuff like that! I found all kinds of goals I never would've thought people would have, and was definitely inspired to try some different things, set some goals, make some REAL resolutions for this next year,

this BRAND NEW decade. (Is anybody else slightly intimidated that this it's going to be a new decade?)

What are your new years resolutions my loves?
