INVICTUS

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find me, unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate;
I am the captain of my soul.

-William Ernest Henley

A favorite poem of mine ever since the first day i read it back in the day. A good poem to remind you that you are the only one in control of what you want to do and no one else can tell you otherwise.

"taken out into a vast sea, lost in a deep ocean"

just add alcohol...

just elaborating

...on what you want for yourself. sometimes you have to make yourself happy to even have a chance at making other people happy.









...not the person people expect you to be. do not waste your own potential for the sake of what people think of you. fuck people, most of them are not even close to knowing the real you and what you want, so why listen?

...there are just something in life that you just can't control and its best to just leave it be. there are things, people, ideas, that just won't comply with you no matter how much you want them to. and to walk away may seem weak but for anyone who has done it, it takes a lot of strength to do so.




...enough said.

“it’s important to have an escape—something you do to get away from the in’s & out’s of everyday life. but it’s also quite important to remember that it’s just that— an escape. you must not get too caught up in it, or you will escape the true gifts of life.”

"there's a difference between being happy because you don't know any better, being happy because you've settled and you have to accept it, and being happy because you know perfectly well what you're capable of, and having the heart & drive to get there."

fall weather makes me feel...

...like this picture. central park would be so key right now, coffee in hand, golden retriever walking next to you, girlfriend accompanying me. just imagining the life, just imagining the life. remember guys, simplicity is key.

just a fan of wave photography

"you know who you remind me of..."

can't say that i know what i wanna talk about at this moment. i just feel like typing but not like typing a paper, just aimless, rambling, typing. lets talk about people and how each one of them reminds you of something in particular. there's a cousin of mine, lets call him doc, he's full of failure but yet full of success, he reminds me that you need to fail at times to realize what you want to really do with your life. i cant tell you how many mental pictures i have of him in a frustrated state but to know he made it, im proud of him. then one of my friends, we can call him ace, he reminds me that to make money you gotta spend money. if some of you dont think this is true, then think stock market, think money spent on school applications, think money spent on a suit for an interview. all money spent in hopes of making more money. oh yeah then there's this couple i know, hmm what the heck, we'll give the names corey and topanga. these two remind me that love does exist, that it doesn't have to be hard, and it has the power to make life seem not so difficult. then of course there's mom and pops, people that you admire because you wish you had the work ethic they did, because i know for sure they didn't get to where they are now by rubbin a magic lamp. there's also one person im glad i've had in my life and glad she's back in it, we can call her marie, taught me to just simply keep it real, to not care so much for what people think of you, to always go after what you want which she always did, and lastly to open up just enough to be vulnerable. that last line, i feell like we all should feel vulnerable more often, it connects us to people, it reminds us that the feelings we have are feelings other people have too and we're not going through them alone. just a thought. but chea these are a few people that remind me of significant things and every single one of them is a part of the puzzle that is me.

p.s. i just wanted to give people names just to give them names, didnt mean to be cryptic haha

oh those eyes

if i believed in it, i think she would be the love of my life. haha.
