A short thought.
Every day that i wake up I get more exited to serve this country in the coast guard. Its weird because as a dreamer I get excited about a lot but this is different.... it seems so close, when it really is. the only thing separating me from this dream is about 20 pounds.
I think everyone needs something to be excited about when they wake up in the morning. What kind of life would you live if you didn't? All I can say is dont think your dream is unobtainable, look for steps even if they are small and minute to get to that dream...
record music on a tape recorder....
read a monologue in the mirror...
make cookies for your friends....
I have also found that a key part to accomplishing any dream is to be extremely out going. the reason being is you never know who you will meet next that will help you achieve the next step towards your goal.
for some reason today is a really good day for absolutely no reason and i just wanted to share that with you all.
Remember, You can't keep a good man down.
Love,
Landen

Grab your sweaters and your fleece, your cap and shoes lets leave. maybe thats what she needs to hear, maybe thats what she needs.
I have lost sight of how important random acts of kindness can be.
I think I have also lost some sense of value on the way I impact the world.
After spending the past few weekends with some people I may never see again I began to reevaluate the importance I place on changing someones life for the better. It was kind of surreal knowing that everything i do could be influential and I started to search for something i could do that could express love towards thees people.
Any one thats knows me knows thats im insensitive, I dont have a filter, I dont care what anyone has to say about me, I enjoy lying to people I dont know, and I have a very low tolerance for people I dont like, but I am indeed a walking contradiction. not many people see the compassion I have for the world and how I try to love people the best I can. not many people know that I want to give everything I own to someone else. not many people know that my life goal is to make as many people happy as I can. Maybe its because I am not trusting enough of people to let that side show.
anyways.....
the only thing I can hope now is that the short time I spent with my new friends I did something to impact them in a positive way. life is too short to not change someones life in a significant or even insignificant way.
so go out and buy someone a pair of flip flops.
maybe buy the lady in front of you at subway her sandwich
give that new watch to a bud
converse with the clerk at 7-11
or just open the door for someone..... you never know how people will be effected.
