About Me

My photo
I love writing. If you want to know anything else just ask me or else read up! I have two blogs ("A Pen Itching To Bleed Onto Paper" and "The Rebirth of J"). One of my blogs (A Pen...) is updated more frequently than the other. "The Rebirth” is more of a story I am writing with my life whereas "A Pen" would be my random thoughts past, present, and future in this unfolding journey I call life. If this is your first time reading my blog, please visit Post #2 for the month of April 2008 in my "A Pen" blog archives... Thanks!

To Truly Live...

To listen to a song that always sounds as amazing as the first time that you heard it
To finish the best book that you have ever read
To laugh until your stomach hurts
To live a day without having slept the night before
To drive, the wind blowing through your hair and music playing loud without a care
To accomplish a goal and stare at yourself in the mirror with pride
To hear somebody tell you that you have changed their life
To gaze wide-eyed at a sky full of bright stars
To listen to the roar of the ocean waves as they hit the shore
To inhale the air of a mountain or canyon that has just taken your breath away
To hang with a group of friends and realize that they have changed you forever
To know the unconditional love of a person that loves you as much as you love them
To spend time with family and know that there is no one more important than them
To come to know that God is real and understand that he loves you
To figure out what really matters in this world
To smile because at the moment you are truly happy
To truly...live.
