Silly.

What be up my friends?
I'd like to talk about the powerful, but evil, thing we call procrastination.
Just kidding, I'm really only looking for an outlet to rant about my bad habits.
I came home this evening with beautiful intentions of practicing some music, finishing some math homework, relaxing, and what did I do instead? Spent an hour on Youtube watching music videos! I feel disgusting. Haha
So, let this be a word of wisdom... get off the internet, after you read this of course, and do something productive that you planned on doing, before you realize that it's time to go to bed.

Silly Colton!


On a plus side, I have had a really good week so far and I know it's only Tuesday, but I'd just like to throw that out there. I was thinking as I was driving myself to school, we have so much to look forward to every day. I can't stand when people foreshadow the day, by saying that they feel it's going to suck or be a "bad". LIES!

Everyday we have the privilege of coming in contact with other people, and either helping them out, or getting help from them, to have company, to laugh things off, to be blessed, to learn!
There is just a lot more out there to be thankful for then we think... I think. :)
You know, I have to laugh, I type in www.blogger.com thinking that I am going to have nothing to say yet here I am blabbering, hopefully about something, that hopefully, will help someone....

You know you're loved, you know there's a reason that things happen, and you know that when you keep your eye on the prize that you are going to have a reason to smile everyday, a reason to wake up and look forward to something.
It's a reason to love.

Come on, don't be shy.
Spread on the love.
Show me a smile!

False Alarm, it's all good!

Why hello there!
So this is what is up and shaking in my life.
I just wrote out everything that was feeling pressure for, or I wasn't feeling good about, and one of the items was that I didn't blog. So here I am, blogging. :)

This is short and sweet. I felt dumb after I described everything that I was troubled by, because on the grand scheme of things, those issues really didn't matter. And I realized that those issues block me from seeing and experiencing all the incredible things God has lined up for me....
I realized that I am kind of smart when I want to be, and I know how I work, so I decided to blog, and then I would feel slightly better. I know that I have to work in order to shake off this lazy spell, and I know that I have to keep my eye on the prize in order to feel this motivation that I need every day.

So here, I am blogging, and I feel better, I feel blessed, I think I am pretty darn well looked after and I really don't have that much to worry about, in fact I have nothing. So folks, the overwhelming feeling that I had earlier today and tonight was a false alarm, simply just the world trying to screw me over. But I am all good. As always. :)

Sometimes I feel discouraged by the people around me, or the things that I constantly hear and see that people are complaining about... well what is my complaining going to do to fix that? I need to be the light in these peoples lives. I need to help these people out and show them that it isn't really that bad. In fact, it's all good. :)

Night my friends,
hope you enjoyed that.
