embrace the change?

Sunday has seemed to be my day of remembering…Although, I am not sure if that is such a good thing–maybe?

There are such vivid songs that stand out in my life to mark my transitions, relationships, moves and insane cross-country trips from Nashville to Los Angeles. I remember this song. My boyfriend of seven years broke up with me, so I moved to L.A. to be with my best friend. We met in Nashville where she was then living as we were both dating guys from the same band. She ended up moving out west b/c she was a songwriter for Warner/Chappell.

I remember going out there for two weeks prior to see if I would like it and she had this CD of Remy Zero. We blasted out the windows. Especially this song. I miss Nashville, I miss L.A. and my friend…I miss those times. Right now there doesn’t seem to be a significant song, but I know the music hasn’t ended. It is good to remember. It helps me realize what I have done and also the “me” that I want to get back. I know we change and grow, but there is a part of me I miss. I slowly feel it coming back. It wasn’t that it died, it just got shuffled under a lot of crap that so easily builds up. It is important to remember who you are. The fire is coming back, the person who is always creating, writing or living life in various colors.

this is me…

i want to wade in water filled with petals
i want to paint more
design more,
take more pictures,
listen to people’s stories and be inspired.
Life passing by in minutes. memories made in chapters.
living in black and white perception.
color reality.

today is the day i capture. embracing the world in art.
painting what i see, designing what i don’t and
taking pictures of the inbetween.

everything is gonna be ok.
