Beautiful Words I'm Pondering Today

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.

Don't go back to sleep.

You must ask for what you really want.

Don't go back to sleep.

People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch.

The door is round and open.

Don't go back to sleep.

Let's Take a Moment


Let's take a moment to remember those that have fought and given their lives so that we can live free. Let's take a moment to remember that their sacrifices allow us so many opportunities that we often take for granted. As we sip our beer, have a BBQ, and take a day from work, let's take a moment and acknowledge those who selflessly died in order to protect our values and freedom.

On Creativity

Obviously, May did not bring my full time blogging comeback as I had hoped. I had been searching for the words to describe the lack of creativity I have been feeling lately until I read a recent post on No More Empty Fortune Cookies. She described her lack of inspiration as a form of creative constipation. And there you have it, the perfect way to put into words what I have been feeling--Creative Constipation.

And speaking of creativity...here's a short talk on nurturing creativity given by one of my favorite authors, Elizabeth Gilbert. I encourage you to listen; it's very engaging, and inspiring.

Star Trek Advance Screening=Awesome!

I thought this was a good excuse for a hiatus in my bloggy break!!

I am so extremely excited! I just got tickets for an advance screening of Star Trek. Tomorrow!

I am a geek, I love Star Trek, and I'm really hoping that the new movie lives up to its hype. The cast looks good, and I love the work of J.J. Abrams, so it should be amazing!

Check out the trailer!
