4 Thoughts for Today.

i have some thoughts today that i wanted to write.. and figured blogging is like, my way of journaling in a way that i can share my thoughts with whoever wants to read them... *of course i do have a real journal with the more personal things*

so here goes it:

Thought #1

I have never had any desire to be a mother.

my brother thinks i am very strange. and he wants nieces and nephews.. but i'm like- you have kids, dude. that's way too much work.. and then my life would be way less chill (possibly).
if it happens, i guess that's okay... because it would DEFINITELY be an accident if it did... but like, kids are little organic germ vessels that suck money out of you when you could be spending that money on traveling and coffee and learning.. improving YOURSELF!  i just can't even handle the thought of having offsprings right now. 
.......... maybe later when i get tired of being free to do whatever i want whenever i want.


Thought #2

i love my little tropical-esque corner of my little apartment!  look how adorable!! 

***not my surfboard. i do not surf.  

Thought #3

i love my little prayer flags.

"Traditionally, prayer flags are used to promote peace, compassion, strength, and wisdom. The flags do not carry prayers to gods, which is a common misconception; rather, the Tibetans believe the prayers and mantras will be blown by the wind to spread the good will and compassion into all pervading space. Therefore, prayer flags are thought to bring benefit to all.

By hanging flags in high places they carry the blessings depicted on the flags to all beings. As wind passes over the surface of the flags, which are sensitive to the slightest movement of the wind, the air is purified and sanctified by the mantras.

The prayers of a flag become a permanent part of the universe as the images fade from exposure to the elements. Just as life moves on and is replaced by new life, Tibetans renew their hopes for the world by continually mounting new flags alongside the old. This act symbolizes a welcoming of life's changes and an acknowledgment that all beings are part of a greater ongoing cycle.

Because the symbols and mantras on prayer flags are sacred, they should be treated with respect."

i love this non permanent life. and change. and learning and loving. (=

Thought # 4

i FUCKING love ukuleles!!! 

so here's a look at my new one!!  (=

.. it's awfully beautiful. it's a Mahalo. which i had never heard of.. but it's a pretty good, cheaper ukulele! and i could not resist that it was my favorite color! she came from Arthur's in Fountain Square!  (=

**Mahalo is a Hawaiian word for gratitude and thanks... i feel that's a suiting ukulele brand name.  (=

that's all i've got for now, friends.
