I miss you and I wish we became better friends when you still lived in St. Louis. You're swell and I hate seeing you in a bad place.

I have no idea who this is, but I'm in a much better place now at least. And I truly miss St. Louis, if we were friends while I lived there, chances are you contributed to making that time awesome. Despite my leaving, of course.

Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habit. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

I feel like dying so maybe this is the beginning of a rebirth.

An Anxious Brain.

To have anxiety is not just to “worry about everything”. 

Anxiety turns rain into smoke when all you want to do is catch a few drops in your palm.

Anxiety is wanting to throw up the moment you wake up because as soon as your eyes are open, your mind is filled with everything you’ll have to do that day - and most times, the thought of all of those tasks at once strikes you as utterly impossible.

Anxiety is losing touch with friends because you feel like you annoy them.

When you’re drowning in anxiety, sometimes you’re able to recognize the fact that you need to get out and do things - however, if you don’t have someone that understands you to accompany you, the world suddenly becomes much scarier - the possibility of a million terrible, embarrassing, or awkward things magnified by idea of going out alone. 

Anxiety is being afraid that you won’t be able to handle life, even though you do it every day. Literally every day feels like an uphill battle that can be so painful to get through, tomorrow seems like torture rather than a fresh start.

Don’t let this confuse you, because it’s not just “in my head”, well, it is, but that’s just the thing. It is in my head, and I can’t get it out. It’s like a parasite that thrives in stress-filled environments. And every day I can’t contain it, it seems to just grow and grow, enveloping my whole mind.

It’s a bug on my soul I can’t seem to find. If I could, I would’ve flicked the fucker off a long time ago.

This took way longer and came out way dumber than I was expecting, but oh well.

I made this semi inebriated snapchat last night and it is probably the most accurate thing in the world. I don't even mean it in a bad way. I used to think I wanted to change the world. But now I just want to live in it, and experience it as much as I can with the people I love. I most likely will never have a very professional career, despite my Bachelor's degree and thousands of dollars of debt, because it simply is not who I am, and it never was (although I am extremely thankful for my education because it does help me everyday in my small business). I am finally content. Every day I try to let passion rule rather than professionalism, otherwise why bother?

My lunch is excellent.

'Sup.

Don't stress, that's dumb. I'm here and it's nice to be alive. Chill out, it's all right. Kiss me. It's nice to be alive. #ballparkmusic #itsnicetobealive
