inspired

so much left unsaid...

in the midst of life, I sometimes loose me...
and one day, I randomly wake up and look into the mirror
and I see someone there, that my heart longs to get to know.

I'm a pretty neat person.
and that's ok.

i still want more. so much more.
i get so frustrated sometimes when I find myself surrounded
by people who don't think like me.
people who not only are satisfied with a 9-5 normal life,
but who crave it.
it's absurd...
not that I think that the world should think like me...but how could someone possibly look forward to a life where for 70 years you wake up and go through the motions of life, without ever really living it?
I want to wake up each morning to find a new adventure.
to see things through a different lens, a different scope, a different set of eyes.
I want to grow as a being just a little more each day
to be pierced over and over again by the stories of the children of this world.

I have big dreams my friend.
many I have yet to discover...
and I am ready to pursue them.

mother teresa said "we can do no great things, just small things with great love."
shane clairborne said "little acts of love can take over the world."
I say, lets get to it.
