{Inspire} Me.


In light of the Olympics, I am plagued by thoughts on what inspires people.
I think this is part of the teacher in me that is always trying to sneak out.
I watch these athletes and am in awe at their testament to personal growth and fortitude.
So I'm wondering how I inspire people?
So I was thinking...
I inspire people by reading.
i inspire people by living an active life.
I inspire people by loving one another.
I inspire people by managing + embracing a healthy life.
I inspire people by laughing lots.

Today.


Rainer Maria Rilke : Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.

{BELIEVE}


I {BELIEVE}...
I believe..things are unfolding exactly as they should.

I believe...in family.
I believe...life–the 1 you were always meant for since the beginning of time–rises up to meet you when you least expect it
.
I believe... that you are not alone in your grief.
I believe... in the endurance of love and the kindness of friendship
.
I believe... in love that will not let you go.

I believe... in taking chances so something beautiful can be born.

I believe... in the power of tears to heal your heart
.
I believe... you can be made brand new.

I believe... the best is yet to come
.
I believe... in surprises, miracles and the power of prayer.

I believe... that nothing will be wasted in taking chances.

I believe... in asking for help and then being quiet so the answers can come from inside
.
I believe... in change, revolution and the kind of chaos that brings peace.

I believe... it’s okay not to know what happens next
.
I believe... in dreams
.
I believe... in God, Jesus, and all that other crazy stuff it’s too silly to say you believe in out loud
.
I believe... in happiness, hard work and letting the power of the Universe flow right through you.

I believe... in love.
I believe...in me.

{ENERGY}


I wish I could rip out a page of my memory
Cause I love this little girl so much
Can't wait till I get to hold this little chub-o again
Cause it's killing me
To bad we can't rewrite our own history

Feel The Heat With All The Burn.


Ok so I totally live for the 'track & field' sports of the olympics! Yeah..it totally brings me back to the times of my family and all the track jazz!

Oh yeah and did you know the Michael Phelps totally listens to hip hop on his ipod...you go dog! Also did you know Phelps' iPod includes: Jay-Z, Young Jeezy, Eminem and Outkast. (What, no 'Pac?) Occasionally, he'll throw some techno into the mix, but usually keeps things rap-centric. Phelps doesn't speak much about the specific songs he's listening to, but he did tell NBC in 2004 that Eminem's "'Til I Collapse" was on his most-played list at Athens. In 2005, he created a playlist for the website Rhapsody that included the songs "Roses" by Outkast, "Burn" by Usher, "Overnight Celebrity" by Twista and "Smile" by G-Unit.

HELL YEAHS BABY!

Thursday Thrills.


Today: is packed with possibility. Thursdays are good for crap like that. We're gonna get out and see where the wind blows us - explore the world with our point-&-shoot camera in hand - and then report back later. With pictures. And tales of adventure. (If nothing pans out - I'll just make something up.)

Plus, how cute is he! His name is Cory!

GO!

Urban.


Ok so I learned something totally new today. One of my 'wants to be a friend but never will' said that I just like people who are SWAGGER JACKERS, of his style...OK?

Swagger Jacker

Someone who steals someone elses, syle, flow, lyrics, ideas and passes them off as there own.

Ex: Yo Cam you are a swagger jacker!

Be Versed.

Pretendship.

Take A Dip.

My Staycation.


Ok so I took lots of different photos on my vacation or like I say, my staycation because I was there so long! It was a blast! Friends come and go. But in the end, your family is ALWAYS there for you NO MATTER WHAT!

Hey Hey.


Because Lace totally hates it when I call her that. Our Hayden Dawn, beautiful.

Like Alannah Pop.

Hello Monday.


Todd Henry : Life is made up of moments and choices. We can choose to do the small things we must do with great care, or we can choose to stay focused on the "big things" and miss everything in the process. It's the small, step-by-step, creatively and beautifully engaged act that changes us and ultimately changes the world.
