a big world

We live in such a big world, yeah I know what your thinking, no brainer everyone already knows that. Tonight though I was out laying on the grass looking at the sky and the clouds with my roommate, and it was beautiful there is beauty in vastness. There are so many things out there left for us to study and marvel at and one of the greatest is the sky to me. I think it's beautiful I am amazed at the texture the depth and the detail to the sky, even more I like observing it as n artist, I have not in all my years ever been able to mimic the beauty and depth the one evening sky has. Not is a dozen paintings, I've tried and I've practiced and the harder it gets to mimic, the more I am amazed by beauty. Even more than the night sky what's even harder for me to capture the beauty of is people. Not in painting, writing or music they are full of dimensions of beauty that I can't even begin to understand. People are stunning, they are breath taking and for some reason they hold depth in one being than the whole universe. The more I look at the sky the more I'm amazed by it but the more I feel protected and safe by it. It's a weird concept but true in my mind and heart, people they different. They take my breath away with their complexity and their depth and I feel safe, but I also feel a strange type of exhilaration almost like jumping a the edge into the deep unknown.
When looking at the sky I feel held by the immensity of the universe, I feel safe and protected. By people I feel like I am jumping into the ocean, I can't see everything that's there and maybe even a little scared of what's there, but your body craves the calming coolness of the ocean to save you from the burning of the sun. People are refreshing and cooling like rain in a storm that keeps you from burning in a drought. But they are also like the feeling of drowning overwhelmed not knowing what you jumped into but not sure you ever want to get out.
Life is in the details, details that make the universe beautiful and stunning to the eyes and mind. But details that make people complicated, hard to understand sometimes, and beautiful and the most complex and hard creation to be able to bring justice to from an artist standpoint. I love the universe as an artist, but I love people even more. People are beautiful no matter what standpoint you see them from.

There's someone in my life

    A couple weeks ago I went and watched the movie ' A Fault in Our Stars' in the theaters, i cried, not just the sad end of a movie cry. It was an almost hysterical, I'm falling apart, and for some reason this is really hitting home cry. I don't know why. Well at least I didn't at the time, I cried myself to sleep, and I didn't know why. I started crying and just didn't really stop until I feel asleep.     Well not everything remains a mystery, and not everything is apparent immediately, somethings just come when they come. This did, it came, there was no stopping it, it came.     At the end of the movie there is a moment when Hazel Grace is reading a letter from Augustus, something he wrote to her or about her before he died. He tells her that pain is part of life, and that we can't choose pain, he says " You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world, but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices. I hope she likes hers. I...

Patience for tomorrow

I had something I wanted to write about for tonight's blog, I had something that I had been contemplating for a while and had finally formulated a way to talk about. However it would end up being a long blog, which I have no problem with, except that I don't feel very well. My thoughts are having a hard time being complete. My brain hurts and I feel like i have been emotionally running in circles, just a tad. And I decided not everything has to be done now, yes sometimes there are some very meaningful things that you would like to see happen that just can't right now. And this is one of those times, it doesn't mean that the future can't bring those things you want to see, it just means that you sometimes have to be okay with waiting for it. I will write about the things I feel the most about. but I am not going to throw something together just cause I need something to post. I have started to learn that you can't throw the most important things to you out there...

Judgemental Driving

So this may be a little known fact about me, but I have road rage. It's not really extreme but I have no patience with other drivers and I often catch myself judging other drivers over simple things. Such as what lane of traffic they are in, or which lane they decide to turn into. It's probably not super apparent, but something that if you drove with me often (which no one does by the way) you would probably notice. Tonight was a good example of this problem of mine, there was a car in front of me that turned into a turning lane to a road that in my mind seems to lead no where. As I watched this car I mumbled under my breath something about "Do you even know where you are going, or are you lost? Cause that kind of goes no where important." Than I thought about it for a second and realized, maybe their home is on that road, maybe they are going to visit a loved one. Maybe they are headed to a best friends house, in all of those cases it would be a road to somewhere im...
