Being Real

Greetings Friends,

As I was driving home tonight. I was thinking about the importance of honesty and simply being real. What does it mean to be "real?" To me it means this:

-Being honest all the time (no exceptions)
-Be who you are, not what someone or something told you to be
-Not covering up how you really feel (if you have a shitty day, you're having a -shitty day, don't cover it up)
-Don't let feelings get trapped inside of you, let em out.

These are just some thoughts of mine, but ones I have been trying my hardest to apply to my life. As you have noticed, I have had some "venting" blogs. Yes I was pissed and I will not apologize for those blogs. Many of my blogs before were simply pretty blogs, always tring to be happy.

Don't get me wrong, I am a very optomistic person. I am in a good mood more often than note, but sometimes I am not. Deal with it.

Also, I have been making some major changes in my life. One change is that I am trying to get rid of anything I don't need. So far this is mainly excess clothes. I started off getting rid of clothes that only have a brand name stamp on it like Lucky, Tommy Hilfiger, etc. You get the idea. That is not me, nor do I want to be a poster boy for a company that doesn't have a positive message except wear me to be a part of the cool society. F*CK THEM!

Change 2. I am trying to read up on biographies of important icons. For example, John Lennon, Malcom X, Martin Luther King Jr., etc. People that strived for a better world. That is how I am going to learn. Almost done with the Lennon book and that has been mind blowing in many ways. Thank you John.

That is all for now. Take it easy!

Daniel
