“No, somebody told you that.”
THIS IS FOR ME. I AM NOT AMING TO IMPRESS. I AM NOT AIMING TO SERVE. I AM NOT HERE TO SATISIFY. I AM HERE TO BE I. I AM NOT HERE TO BE MORE OR LESS. THAT IS ENOUGH. I AM. ENOUGH.
It's been a while...
…since I’ve posted anything on here. I’ve been preoccupied and have chosen to post on my new tumblr page (asitsalwaysbeen.tumblr.com). As of late I haven’t been feeling like I have very much to say, nor have I been feeling very creative.I’m currently in a state of stuck, which I’ve been before, but usually I’m quit good at unsticking myself, evaluating my...

Wes Thinks I'm Cool
Enough with cool.
Enough with interesting.
Enough with right.
Enough with wrong
Too much wanting.
Too much waiting.
Not enough letting
Not enough being.
One side says this.
The other says that.
As without so within.
As within so without.
Enough with it.
I’m finished.
Now I can begin.
Vita Tranquillitas
What is it?
It’s not what you think.
It’s not?
No.
How can you be sure?
Do you know what it is
That I think?
No. If you know then you do not think.
How can I know if what I know has not been thought?
If it has been thought then for certain it is not what you know.
How should I find it?
It’s there.
Where?
It is there. There! It can only be found when you have stopped...

(Untitled) (Original Poem)
I sit and wait for something to happen A knock at the door Should I let him come in? I suppose he’ll tell me What I already know I’ll look him in the eye Allow my annoyance to show I walk to the door No one is there It was the wind that had knocked It was the eager cold air I hang down my head And walk back to my chair I’ll never have a visitor Except the eager cold air

Living in the Shadows (A Stream of Consciousness)
Over the past month I’ve been underlining all the words I like out of the dictionary. I started doing this because I wanted to expand my vocabulary and put together a list of words that I could use as a reference. While I was looking up words and reading the definitions something dawned on me. I realized that words are almost like a shadow of reality and the definitions of words are the...

Random Things I Wrote In My Journal
- Humans are just as much a part of nature as the trees and the birds. Many believe that the world belongs to us and that our lives are the lives that matter most. The problem with that is there are no lives, only life.
- When you take the time to look at nature you will notice how easily it flows. It would appear that the birds fly without worrying about where it is they are going.
- Perhaps we...
Don't be yourself
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the notion of self. By self I mean the feeling of existence, the feeling of “I am someone”. Sometime last year it occurred to me that words like, ‘herself’ or ‘himself’, imply ownership. When you look at the word, ‘HERself’, the word seems to say that the self belongs to her. Why the implication of ownership? The implication of ownership suggests that ‘self’...
I recently came across my friends tumblr page and it’s inspired me to do more writing. Thanks Kseny for reminding me why I started a tumblr! You can check out her page at:http://maybeitsrapture.tumblr.com
There is a lot of writing and personal commentary on her blog, which is really refreshing for a tumblr page.

And It Begins
Writing a blog seems like an appropriate addition to my life at the moment, so here it is. Seeing as this is my first attempt at writing a blog my posts might not be completely coherent, so bare with me. I’m not entirely sure whose going to read my posts, if anyone, but nonetheless I figure I’ll cater to my own interests to start. I guess to a certain extent most bloggers post what...
