"lifestyle" is probably one of my favorite words. it's our presentation, like the fashion of our souls. lifestyle... our habits, attitudes, tastes, moral standards, and economic level. today, i'm drawn outside of myself, like there is something to represent here. so flip me inside out and upside down, i want you and your people's people to see my soul. i'm being intentional; hello world. see me in my prettiest form. we're spiritual and our souls are not nearly exposed enough. perhaps we're fearful of our own creativity when it's absolute and promising in our points of interest. souls cultivate and thrive on creativity; do you not know the name of your creator? we weren't made to eat out of the hand of the human race. don't be so dependent on tangibility and its touchableness, a lack of faith hides your soul and postpones your reason to be apprehensive in your own declaration of you. your lifestyle, your soul. hello, philosophical me.
as usual, i cannot thank jesus enough. one, it is raining cats and dogs, and two, i'm wise. i'm sitting at starbucks, my usual spot, and a professor from IUP overheard my conversation with my dad. to think i'm one of those loud phone talkers, having a phone conversation in an echoing coffeehouse... i am annoyed and highly disappointed in my disregard for my fellow coffee drinkers. i know exactly what they were thinking. "girlfriend. go outside and take the call." "girl in indian looking shirt, get off your phone." "loud mouth." hence, i fail at being a starbucks regular today. but this professor asked me about my wanting to move. he lived in boston for 12 years and knows people he could connect me with. perfect? yes. pretty sure i was almost scammed by this friendly couple and their luxurious suite. thank you, dad, for those three conversations we had today. give me two years and i'll be in boston, fingers crossed.
accordingly, i have a new plan. i cannot believe i am going to do this, but i've decided to move back to mahaffey in the land where rent does not exist. parents are my favorite today. love your parents, kids. also, i'll be transferring to westmoreland in spring '13. gosh, i love goal setting just like i do trend setting. life couldn't be any better. and for that reason, i'm going to say my goodbyes now to eat a chicken sandwich. better than subway. i encourage you all to build your life, not using someone else's blueprint, map, whatever. it's time to be intentional about living, otherwise this society will eat you alive and you'll be dead in your skin, a mad soul, a frightened person.
