The flame is a provoking light.

As you want to slowly get near, it provides you warmth but being too close for such time will give you a burn so painful. Even though going through the fire quickly will leave no such harmful sting. The flame likes to trick and tease, attracting others to feel the sting it's capable of, just to prove it's power. Why would something so magnificent act so malefic?

I've decided that living an easy life is something that I would not want for myself. I want to be put through obstacles and work my own way out. I want to achieve things that I never thought I was capable of doing. I want to see a change in myself for the better of me and everyone around me. I want to know what it’s like going on a path where you don’t know what the destination at the end will be. I don’t want to have a basic mentality. I want to experience different things others don’t have the courage to do. And by experience I will have learned so much more than I could’ve imagined. I am prepared to to fail, work my way back up, learn and grow. I strongly believe that time will give me knowledge.

Internal Sleep

The later I wake, the shorter my day.
No wonder why the elders say, "Why do you sleep your life away?"

Theme Song

St. Croix by Family of the Year

A boy from Florida, took a trip to the Caribbeans 

  Umbrella in his daiquiri 

  Sipping, listening to Bob Marley 

  He came to get away, he came to get over it 

  Sunglasses and his radio, 

  Chilling in a hammock swaying to-and-fro 

  Whoa, Soul Rebel in stereo 

  You bring the ocean, I'll bring emotion 

  Together we'll make a love potion 

  You bring the ocean, I'll bring the motion 

  Dancing all night in slow motion 

  He came to get away, he came to get over her 

  Laptop and his cell phone, 

  Throw it in the ocean to be all alone 

  Whoa, Soul Rebel in stereo 

  You bring the ocean, I'll bring emotion 

  Together we'll make a love potion 

  You bring the ocean, I'll bring the motion 

  Dancing all night in slow motion 

  Don't you worry, boy 

  Take your time, don't hurry 

  Don't you worry, boy 

  Take your time, don't hurry 

  You bring the ocean, I'll bring emotion 

  Together we'll make a love potion 

  You bring the ocean, I'll bring the motion 

  Dancing all night in slow motion

   If I were ever to have a theme song , this song would be it.  I chose this song because the instrumental tunes give me a good vibe.  I feel like I'm at the beach whenever I listen to this and I absolutely love the beach.  But that is not the only reason why I chose this song, the lyrics have some meaning to me.  In the song, the lyrics tell a story about how a boy goes away on vacation to escape from stress and from a recently terminated relationship.  He gets rid of all his access to the outside world to be free and not worry about anything.  I relate to the lyrics because I'm constantly trying to escape from stress and drama that has, unfortunately, been bestowed upon me.  I want to get away from everyone and everything and just relax and have a good time.  I don't think anyone likes being stressed or have drama, so I'm pretty sure I'm not the only who can relate to this.  So that is why St. Croix by Family of the Year would be my theme song if I were to ever have one for some reason.
