JustThinking&Contemplating

I'm just simply contemplating thinking about what life has to offer.Certain souls in life are magnetic to attract and some clash.I know who I am and what souls I'm attracted to.I have 2 older sisters who are both married and 1 has a niece.The truth is I could have been just as happy growing up with just a pet then having 2 sisters.I've gained a lot of knowledge by having siblings but I have also learned a great deal being on my own.That's all for now just blogging on the spot.

ThoughtsOfTheDayDec10th

I'm just pondering away thinking at how lucky I am.I've come from a great set of parent's that are both compassionate and kind and would help me at any needs notice if I asked for it or for support.I am truly blessed to have "Tourette Syndrome" as it allows me to empathize with people of all types of personalities.I have always been able to see a characteristic of myself through all people especially in movies where actors try and make you feel the characters which then puts you into their heads.I am in aww of the world, I am a realist and dreamer I try to stay present in the here and now so precious time isn't wasted.Many people tend to stay in the past or future which then makes you forget about the now.Those are my thoughts of the day that's it for now.

AlwaysInTheBackOfMyHead

Here I am again writing at the spurt of the moment which is how I normally like to write.I am still struggling with having the fear of being alone for the rest of my life.It may sound like a ridiculous fear that is far fetched it must be happening for a reason as it's a thought that I've struggled with my whole life.I enjoy meeting new people and seeking out friendships which I try to do on a daily basis when I'm in a social mood at the same time I also battle my shyness.I can be shy and appear timid which is a vibe I sometimes want to give off but also am working on overcoming.I know being shy is one of my gifts that has been given to me by my spirit to protect me from harms way at the same time giving me sensitivity at how others feel.I consider myself a work in progress as I'm always thinking and changing just felt like writing this in my journal.Feel free to leave a comment if you feel like or not if you don't I'm just putting myself out there and opening myself up to the world.

YoungBodyOldSoul

The title of my blog "young body old soul" is truly how I feel.I've learned many lessons and continue to learn in this spiritual journey called life.It's not always easy finding the right path to tread on as well as finding out who you are.I have always known who I am and I have the drive and will to succeed no matter what gets in my way.Life isn't an easy hurdle to overcome especially when you have a disorder but you don't have to let it get in your way.I feel blessed to have what I have and I truly wouldn't trade it for the world.We're all unique yet we all have the same qualities and it's when we work together as a whole instead of apart we can accomplish anything.I believe that humanity is at a turn point where we can fix what we have imprinted on earth and I know we can make it a better place even better then how it began it just takes hope and faith.When you have faith nothing can pull you down.

Violence,War,Community,Isolation

Today on my mind is about violence,war,community and isolation.Violence to me just premotes more violence and killing someone to the point that your ending their life won't give you a feeling of inner peace, because their soul doesn't end necessarily it could stay in that spot and not go away.Dealing with emotions is the one way you can set yourself free without any left over feelings laying in the back of your head.War I believe is not necessary, it not only hurts you but also hurts everyone as a whole.Through community involvement figuring out solutions using our soul knowledge to come up with ideas to understand nature and the world we live in teaches us such as our personalities which make up the world.Once you teach the soul it stays with you.Isolating yourself can also give you knowledge and a means of way of dealing with sorrow without thinking of hurting someone.Just my thoughts your welcome to agree or disagree just putting them out there.

November2ndWatchedAFilmCalledBirdmanOfAlcatraz

Today I was flipping through the channels and happened to come across a movie called The Bird Man From Alcatraz.Facing hard time due to murder Robert Franklin Stroud tries to pick himself up and begins studying birds.He makes cages for them while in prison and studies them infectiously.Learning what makes birds happy and what makes them die from diseases due to that Robert does many experiments trying to find the right formula to stop them from dying.It's a heart warming story based on real life it's inspiring and at the same time makes me think of the prison system and if it's trying to help offenders recover or punish them without learning from their mistakes.It's truly a thought inspiring film and thought I'd write about it today.

DifferencesWhyWeHaveThemInTheWorld

There are differences in the world whether we like it or not.I believe there are differences in people's personalities, bodies, etc because it gives us meaning and direction to go to in life.What would the police do if they didn't have crime to solve if there were no crimes committed by people, what would someone who is caring and not selfish do if there were no selfish people in the world.Everything is connected, we're all connected to eachother as human beings as well as apart of nature being earth.I know we all have the ability to achieve results and change the direction life is going.Just some of my thoughts going on in my head I thought I'd blog about.

WritingMyThoughtsDown

I'm feeling full of life.I'm determined to succeed and won't let anything get in my way of my dreams and reality.I love life and I try to look for the positive in everything.I give everything in my life meaning and know you can truly find meaning in anything that life hands you out.I know anyone that truly wants to change their lives around can dispite whatever circumstances he/she has gone through.These are just some of the thought's I feel like sharing and may possibly ignite some thought conversation.We're all on a spiritual life journey that we can all come together as one or fade out into blackness it's up to you.

StevenThoughtsOfTheDay

I'm not used to this kind of hot weather with the heat wave spreading over "Canada" right now.I feel it in the air right away when I go outside it's very humid.When I'm in the sun I get tanned easily, and the thing is I don't even like being tanned.I prefer white skin over tanned.It's important to be covered with sunscreen if your being exposed to the sun because of the ozone layer depletion and protecting yourself against the uv rays.I'm having pretty good day, I'm in a positive mood went to my mental health club house, had an awesome lunch which was cold cuts, smoked salmon, and pickles.It was delecious.I haven't felt any anxiety for a couple of days which I am surprised because of the extreme weather change.When I do I'm handling it a lot better then I used to due to the help from my peer support worker.I'm slowly getting back in shape as I enjoy fitness and working out and am finding out I can still work out at my own pace without feeling anxiety and a rapid heart beat which is an example of anxiety.Just felt like sharing my mood of the day that's it for now.

LivingInTheNow&NotThePast

There have been moment's in my life where I wish I could turn back the clock but I can't.In those moments I acted in a ridiculous way which brought me a feeling of guilt.That's why it's important to be living in the now because now it is possible to bring about change in your life since the clock is ticking and you actually have a chance to think in the now and consciously transform yourself.I do want to have kids and I want them to start off in the world with a clean slate so they can look back into their past without a feeling of anger at how they acted toward their friends.

ALittleAnxietyAttack

I've had a pretty relaxing day went out for a walk,exercised, and listened to music.I just had a little "anxiety attack" which I haven't experienced in a long time.I'm currently living at a transitional house, am taking meds regularly, and have been feeling up to par but the anxiety attack caught me by surprise.My heart started racing and then I started to breathe heavily which is just another reminder of what I have.I truly believe it's an asset.I have my bad days, and good days, I just have to have faith.I have strong faith in my soul and I know it can heal me no matter what type of situation I'm in.Just some of my thoughts of the day that I feel like sharing.

LifeInGeneral

Life isn't always what it's cracked up to be.I truly believe the more differences there are in the world the better life will be for everyone because people will have to learn to be open to change which is the biggest essence of life.I have "Tourette Syndrome" and I take med's for it which keep me mellow and in control.I don't mind taking the meds because they help me stay level headed and I don't experience any side effects.I just rely on medications to survive which is little to deal with compared to what others deal with on a daily basis such as someone who has fibromyalgia.Tourettes gives me a unique perspective and intriguing thought patterns.It gives me a massive amount of energy and intense thoughts which gives me even more drive because we are thought driven.I try and embrace it which is not always easy some days but majority of the days I remain positive and feel my genuine self.Just some thoughts of the day I thought i'd post.

RelaxingListeningToMusic

I'm just sitting on the pc relaxing to some music and pondering.Music is a strong form of communication that grips your heart and soul.We have many ways of learning but the deepest is through sound because it pulls you in.It's what I would call magnetic.If you listen with an open ear and an open mind I believe anything is possible.

FindingLoveOnline

Love is like life and it takes careful planning to succeed.Love can be a gamble because some people like to play games which i've experienced on the site.I'm not going to give up after all even if you fail one time you might succeed the more times you try.I think online dating can work out as long as your honest and upfront about who you are and what your needs are.Just some of my thoughts I feel like sharing :-)

RamblinOnMyMindJustMyThoughts

I'm just sitting eating & pondering.Life is truly simple it's simply how you approach it.I've always viewed life in a positive light and I try and keep my life as simple as I can.Having "Tourette Syndrome" hasn't made it easy but it teaches me and I continue to learn because learning is a life long process.

Music

When I'm listening to music I go where the music's vibe takes me.All I have to do is listen with both of my ears and it takes me into a spiritual sphere.It sucks me in and I try and learn from it with the tools I'm given.Just my thoughts on music.

I'm reading a book about the history of "Texas" by author James A Michener.What attracted me to the book is because of my grandma "Eugenia Royal" who reigned from 'Texas" & my love & passion for blues.Texas has a very rich history.It has been faught to sanctify the land by many different cultures of people such as the spanish,french,the apache native indians,etc.Don Ramon Saldana the "father" of the Saladana's family decide to settle in Texas and two of his son's Fray Damian and Fray Domingo end up getting killed from the native indians also known as the "Karankawa" doing what they believed in.Don Ramon has a daughter named "Trinidad" and is determined to find a pure spaniard for her to marry.It's a long frusterating process both for him and her.Later in the book Don Ramon ends up having a duel with an americano living up to his reputation and honor and dies because of it.It's fascinating and is stirring my curiousity.I want to know and see the birth place of the blues because of how greatly influenced I am by the music.Blues music is about honesty in every shape and form, whether your ideas come from alocohol,drugs,etc it all shares the same divine message

LivingInFear

Fear is a strong emotion similar to worrying just like anger is and being angry.It's apart of the mood complexion which can give you results fast.I have a silly fear always lurking in the back of my head ending up being alone.That is because majority of the time a people person and like being around people and if I was to be alone it is like torture to me.Fear can be overided if you realize what your thinking about and why it's popping into your brain.You can use the energy it gives off to your benefit.Just some personal thoughts of mine I feel like sharing.

StevenMannetteMyLifeInGeneral

This is my first blog on blogspot so i'm going to try the best that I can.I am passionate about many things in life particularly life itself.I live my life to the fullest and live my passions after all what is life without a little bit of fun as well as seriousness, a mixture of both.I truly believe life is as simple or as complicated as you make it, and it's your attitude that counts.I have a positive order called "Tourette Syndrome" which I consider to be an asset because I don't let it slow me down.It can be tough at times but it also has it's rewards.It's taught me many life lessons that i've learned from and continue to learn because life is an ongoing process of trials and tribulations.I believe there is a reason behind everything, and if your not sure what that is to you there are ways to figure it out.I would have to say that i'm overall a "spiritual" individual and follow my own philosophy of living but at the same time respect all religions and faiths.I love to write,read,listen to music,philosophy,psychology,lending a helping hand to others,etc.This is just the beginning of my 1'st blog on blogger, and I hope you find it inspiring.
