my quote prompt:
life loves to be taken by the lapel and told:
i'm with you kid, let's go.
- maya angelou
can i tell you a secret?
i can be really fun when i let my hair down. i'm a goofball when i let my wavy strawberry blond mane dance in the wind.
*and i do that, believe it or not. i know i have a tendency to be serious here all the time, and i think it is something i want to change. r mentioned something to me a few days ago about showing my fun side once in awhile. i love this idea! :p
i've slept on the garbage scattered glitter laden, cockroach inhabited streets of new york to get a good vantage point to a concert, for which i already procured tickets. more than once.
i've been in the midst of possessed soccer fans celebrating a win on the streets of the champs-elysées in paris in plain old fashion rioting behaviors. this innocent little utah girl simply wanted to visit sephora for the 5th time in three days.
once? i even arranged green sour patch kids into the shape of a peace sign in a grocery store parking lot. true story. ;)
the idea of grabbing life by the lapel and chanting excitedly, i'm with you kid, let's go. it mimics my life. this road i'm on is nothing what i ever thought. when you challenge your dreams, they have a fantastic, magical, unbelievable way of rising up to meet you, right on the cusp of beaming brilliance. it all mingles together to create this wonderland of someplace dreamy, rose tinted glasses and unicorns scattered throughout.
the funny thing is, when you dare to truly live? when you make that conscience effort? that intentional move to fill the moments with 100% potent purpose? life sings her sweet song, laughs belly shaking glee, turns to you and says "you have no idea how beautiful this is going to be."
