This blog ain't meant for those people I know - unless they happen upon it - it's meant for YOU... I simply want to share some of my experiences I've had in life; and hopefully at the same time lift up the spirits of those who happen upon this blog.

The Power of a Hug

I was thinking. Of course, it was about her. We never really hug each other too much.

Well, there comes a time in everybody's life, when everything that could go wrong, goes wrong. Whether it's my family tearing each other apart the day before or nearly losing one of my friends and his incredibly muscular yet not muzzle-wearing dog among other things, I was having one of those times up until yesterday. Well, with a simple hug, she remedied it.



The more often you have something, it seems the less you value it. I never realized that till I was on my home in my blue neon light-filled car listening to the Backstreet Boys oddly enough. When I dropped her off, I had a total Ben moment and my OCD kicked in. She started to leave, a little while later, but then came back for a hug. As I said, we don't hug too often, and in my car on my way back I realized that she recognizes the value that even a simple gesture can have on someone.

She knew I needed that hug. I'm glad for it.

let it slip

Look. If you had one shot,  or one opportunity, to seize everything you ever wanted, in one moment. Would you capture it, or let it slip?
- Eminem

Yeah. I've literally had a thousand opportunities, yet I never took the shot. Why? I don't freaking know. Maybe it goes back to my childhood, or maybe it's some psychological issue, or maybe I'm just a bit shy.  I don't know. I haven't mustered up the courage. It's been dang near a year since I last asked. Her.

But right now, I've decided I'm not gonna care about the past. I'm gonna be here. Screw what I think other people will think if I ask her. There's not a dang thing to be afraid of. Next opportunity? I'm not gonna take it, I'm making my own opportunity, and I'm gonna seize the moment, and give it all I got. That's it for today.




Reflecting back on this post:

I think you should know Eminem, I love you. If I didn't say so in a different post, I made my own oppurtunity and handled it awesomely eventually. I only failed once after the writing of this original post. In that awesome way, because your music has helped me so much throughout the last few years in ways you would never know. Also, I gotta give my man David Strauss, aka D Allie of United States of Mind a SHOUTOUT!!!


If you ever happen to read this, I got a 28!!!!!
