Momentary thoughts

Just a thought, but does anyone ever take a second to realize that life can change drastically at literally any single moment? Isn't the possibility of an unexpected spontaneous life altering occurrence exciting? 

I truly feel that there should never be a moment of boredom in life merely because of the endless possibilities and variability that life brings. 

Yeah, it's awesome to look forward to a vacation or an event planned but you don't always have to look forward sometimes you just look 'here'. The spontaneity of life and the second to second potential of amazingness is something to be excited about. I feel looking at life in this manner offers the opportunity to live at the edge of your seat like your constantly watching that raptor in the kitchen scene in Jurassic Park... but, in a good way. 

At any moment you can be at CVS shopping for Q-Tips and at the same exact moment Scarlett Johansson reaches for the same box and then you end up boyfriend and girlfriend. It can happen!

Your life path can be altered at any minute, and it sounds scary, but that's excitement and possibility. You never know what will happen, who you will meet, or what's next even if you have a plan. Whether that alteration is up or down it will lead you to a better place as long as you perceive it that way. So, if you ever need something to look forward to then just look forward to the potential of every moment. 

I don't know about you but I'm pumped to shop for some Q-tips.

Happy Friday the 13th.

Bueller?... Bueller?... Bueller?

There is a very popular and truthful quote in Ferris Bueller's Day Off that I think a high percentage of people reading this are familiar with:

"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know"... wait no, thats not it... It's..

  

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." 

When I moved to Los Angeles I came here with a heavy sense of adventure and high sensitivity for life. I still have both those in me but somewhere along the timeline of me being here there were times and there are times where I forget those feelings were what drove (literally and figuratively drove me here in my Acura) me here. As I get older time just goes faster and faster. The only reason I see for that is that I am slowly magnetizing more responsibility which eats up more of my time therefore exponentially expediting each day that passes. Sometimes I become forgetful to take a breath, stop and really look around. And, I hate that because I've always thought of myself as someone who is very conscience of that. 

I think slowing life down should be entered in to our DAILY routine. It is good to take a vacation once in a while to get away from all the hustling and bustling but I think quantifying these vacations to mini-daily-mental vacations does the mind, body and soul good. 

Get lost in what is around you by realizing what is around you. When you find yourself in the middle of a task, so entranced with completing the mission just randomly stop for 30 seconds. Really look at your surroundings to acknowledge whats around you. It levels me out at least.

This may sound heavy but somewhere along the line the human species became so obsessed with evolution, progression and technology that I feel a lot of us forget to peak inside of ourselves. All of our progression and innovativeness is SO important in so many ways but take a step aside once in a while from all this clutter to stop and look around because life really does move fast and it only moves faster as you stack more on your plate.

Don't miss it.
