In loving memory

Just want to take the time to all those who are suffering and struggling.

In the last two months we've lost three people to death. It's a sad and depressing thing to think about. I hope this can just get to those who are hurting...

I am aware of all the pain and sorrow coming from your hearts losing a loved one. Especially after how young each of these kids were..but you all are not alone. We all are suffering in some way and all i can say is this.. keep your head up. It may seem difficult now, but you just gotta do it. They're looking down on YOU now. Making sure YOU stay happy. They've got your back now, and there's no doubt that you'll see them again soon.. I know it's going to seem hard to do, but that's why you've been given friends, parents, brothers, sisters, even teachers to talk to. Don't bottle up your emotions. If you need to talk, talk. There is someone always ready to listen. I promise you that.

Life and Death

You know, it's hard to write about life and death with what's going on at Lone Peak right now..

But instead of talking about death, I feel LIFE is what should be celebrated. Looking around you have people who care about you. Friends, teachers, parents, and the list goes on and on. Go out there and live your life. We all are going to die eventually there's no question about it, unfortunately it's just a matter of when. Take it in. Take in each day and look at all the beautiful things you have, the wonderful blessings given to you. Go look outside. Look at the blue skies, the clouds rolling across the sky. Look at the mountains we can see every day with the snow capped on the top of the mountain. Just enjoy life. It's a precious gift. Go on and live YOUR life.

No need to fear my friends...this is just a beginning draft. More things are to come to my Bucket List.. and indeed, things to be crossed off.

Fear...

See that. That is "It". It is the thing I fear most.. Simple as that. My number one fear

Grammy's

You know..I watched the Grammy's tonight.
Music is incredible!! Like I really don't know what I would do without music.
It fixes everything, and sometimes it doesn't even need to fix anything. It just helps you stay calm and sane.
Music is a way to reach out to other people. So many talented artists in the music business today.

Thinking About You

All I can say is I'm thinking about you.
Yep that's right. YOU.
Thinking about you like a bull rider thinks about those 8 seconds.
Like bull thinks about bucking,
A trucker thinks about trucking.
Thinking about you like a girl thinks about texting...
her best friend to say why doesn't he like me?!

you know, it's just simple. I'm thinking about you. What more do you want?

You know what....

Want to know something? I could really go for a nice burger. Or a very tender, very juicy, nice, seasoned steak. Mmmmm...some real food. A burger that's fresh off the grill. You know the one that has the juices oozing out of the patty, the cheese that just melts to the heat of the burger as it strings out with each bite. Wouldn't be a burger without crisp lettuce, a sweet, ripe tomato, and mayo, ketchup and mustard to top it off. A steak would be nice too! Medium rare, a baked potato with bacon, butter, cheese. Maybe even a house salad on the side?

Yeah...I'm hungry. I think I'm gonna go eat.

Love

Love is a crazy thing. Most people don't understand love. I sometimes wonder myself, what is love? I couldn't tell you. I find myself thinking about it sometimes, but then again I find myself avoiding anything that has to do with love. Love is a game of risks. It makes you open up out of your shell just to run the risk of being shot down and rejected. Something no one wants to experience. However! Love does have benefits. Look at all the positives here. You get to be with that special someone ALL THE TIME. You get to experience endless amounts of happiness. Experience love the way you want to experience it. Don't let people tell you who you can and can't love. In the end...It's your call.
