venturing and finding meaning
I made a promise to a friend today to never be content with any situation or experience. we also promised each other to continue to always be tourists in our own city. the brooklyn bridge gave us that. thompson park however gave me a different revelation. tired from a long venture (maybe an hour FYI) i saw a line of about 60 homeless people waiting to be given MAYBE an onion or various canned goods. and right then and there i was grateful. YES...... i know there are people less fortunate than myself. YES...... i know people lose loved ones everyday. and YES..... i have a great life. BUT seeing that picture made me TRY to promise myself that life will go on and that i am one fortunate BITCH. human nature is to self reflect when things go bad or when you see others with less. but i will try my hardest to remind myself each day of that.

recent inspiration
lately i've been drawn to the following things. fascinated with elephants and their texture. jewel toned green makes me jump up for joy. building sketches intrigue me. the weaving of friendship bracelets make my heart thump. legos and blocks shaped into anything make me smile. and well the black dude is just just cool taken from http://thesartorialist.blogspot.com/

yogurt and sandwiches
Tonight was epic on soooo many levels. No i didn't find the cure for cancer nor did I save a woman from a raging fire. All a friend and I realized was the true meaning of happiness. yes i said happiness. Its merely allowing yourself to NOT be "normal' and letting others live and breathe their own lives. I've come a long way in these short 25 years of living but i expect to never be the same person i was the day before. because in reality who am i to tell you what to believe in or who to love. who am i to question where the fuck you've been for the past 3 days. who am i to relinquish my pain and anger on you. who am i to try to make you into the person i 'think' you should be.
in actuality who i am is john. and please trust me when i say i will never be your everyday vanilla milkshake. im the fucked up, twisted mess with gummy bears, granola bars, chocolate, caramel, and oreos in between (thanks bre). one which looks utterly disgusting at first but at least wakes you the fuck up. i will love like no one else has loved and fight like no one else has fought. but i will never apologize for who i am nor do so for my friends. WE are who were meant to be. free individuals who will make fun of you for not being true to yourself.
