Things I Want.


I want to see the world.  I want to smell the crisp mountain air of the Alps, Andes, Appalachians.  I want to feel the sand and feel the breeze of every coast I can.  I want to see where the great civilizations began and where greater men changed the course of history.  I want to make an impact, and create memories that I feel with all of my heart.  I want to taste cuisine from distant lands and speak with locals who tell their life stories.  I want to learn other languages so that I can understand and appreciate those stories.  I want to create and be inspired every single day of my life.  No matter how large or small of a scale.  I want those around me that make me a better person.  I want to be able to live, share, and laugh with those friends.  Friends that become family.  I want to jump off that cliff, from that plane, and be thrilled by my fear.  I hope I never stop feeling fear, because that fear means that I have something new to experience, and most importantly something to lose.  I want to dance under the stars and feel your face against mine.  I want to be enraptured by your presence and captivated by your smile.  I want to know that my life has been remarkable and that I have left traces of my self in the people that I meet, the obstacles I conquer, and the world I create.  I never want to forget the possibilities that hard work brings.  I want to remember a life well lived is the entire purpose of this wonderful chance of existence.

What is the point of tagging your name?  It doesn't mean anything to anyone yet.  It needs to be in coherence with something that people can relate to, otherwise it's way too easy to pass over.  Make a statement, and then you will have something that people can associate with your brand. 


Found this written as a memo in my phone from months ago.  This is why jotting down thoughts, sketching silly, random ideas should be a common practice.  You never know when you will come across something that will shed new light on a project that you are struggling with.
