Very few people in life will tell us to slow down and not accomplish more, be more or have more. Yet, the best thing you can do is to take your time and be present. There is nothing that can’t wait to be said in person or on the phone. We are losing our ability to communicate as humans; forgetting the art form that is conversation and expression with the infiltration of emojis and lol’s and hahas.
Yesterday I had a free day which is the most amazing thing ever. I met up with an amazing friend and showed her around downtown Denver, jammed with some awesome musicians on the 16th street mall and walked all the way to St. Marks which is the greatest coffee shop in Denver.
This crazy things happen when you unplug your headphones, stop looking ahead in a dead stare and decide to stop and chat to another human for no other reason but than just because. As I was walking downtown after having an amazing lunch with a friend who just moved to Colorado, I checked out the centre of the 16th street mall and was immediately drawn to this awesome group of musicians jamming out with their puppies and rolling around in these funky, red chairs.
I would recommend opening your eyes as wide as possible at all times so that life can keep surprising you. Because there is no way to look at everything at all times, but there is time to look at everything if you are willing to work and wait for it.
It was the perfect Sunday that started with running a friends dogs in the morning, doing some life tasks then meeting a friend in the highlands at Prosper and Oats for an acaii bowl and then ended with a bike ride down to city park for the jazz concert with another friend.
Everyday is an opportunity to try something new that terrifies you and that you will most likely fail at the first, second,third time. But for most people, they never keep trying and never improve.
So it turns out that republicans and buffalo and wind are not the only things in Wyoming! The most amazing national park is there too: Medicine Bow National Park. This past weekend I went to Wyoming to spend time with family and get outdoors and have some mad fun! Warning: The video includes dad dancing and fun. So if you don’t like either..byeeeee!
Hi! Mostly to my mom who is the only person who reads this except isn’t reading this because she has no idea that I am back to blogging and has 13921038921 unread emails that she hasn’t opened including the one notifying her to stalk her daughter again.
Lately I’ve been somewhat stuck, trapped in the questions of college, identity and the massive future that is already happening. So much in our life is out of control which is equally comforting and terrifying. Because anything could happen.
