I received a Facebook or text, I'm not quite sure witch but how it came to me does not matter it's the content that will blow your socks off.
It was JamJam... She posted on our blog! What a victory! Although she didn't speak to both of us, this WolfPack thinks she did wonderfully. We have both been very uninspired these last few months, and we both have been avoiding this blog like it was the black plague.
But we are back!
I have had a song lyric stuck in my head, it honestly makes me think.
"& it's hard to dance with a devil on your back so shake him off!"
-Florence & the Machine.
I find it powerful, moving, honest, and thought provoking.
We all of burdens and regrets but we need to shake then off, we need to dance.
Now the way I'm using dance is a cut loose and have fun definition.
Although we are all fighting a battle and although it may be tough, we need to learn to shake it off and have a little bit of fun.
With out that little break, crazy dance, or some slice of fun we may find ourselves crazy and uninspired.
So go out and do something for you and only you. AND it has to be something fun.
You are B E A U T I F U L.

Alive and Kickin... I promise.
If this blog and I were friends, then this, right here and now, would be one of those awkward reunions. Our conversation would go somewhat like this:
{{Blog, the friend whom I have successfully avoided for the past eight months,
catches my eye from across the bookstore... intentionally.
I freeze. My pulse quickens uncomfortably. My pupils constrict in dread.
With sweaty palms and guilt-stricken heart I take a calming ujjayi breath.
After assessing that there is no plausible escape route
via feigned blindness or ignorance,
I force my cheeriest smile and rush to over-enthusiastically embrace my friend.
Blog visibly stiffens in unease...}}.
Blog: So. [SILENCE]...it's been a long time, friend.
Me: Yeah... I meant to call [shifty eyes], but you know how life goes
[exaggerated and overly cheesy smile]...
Blog: Sure. So... [crosses arms sardonically]. You look well...
Me: Oh, thanks. [lack of genuine interest beginning to show] [forms plot for quickest escape].
Blog: So... what's new?...
Me: ... [favoring ambiguity]... everything....
If my metaphorical mental skit doesn't covey my sentiments on the matter... I have been actively avoiding this blog for months with the hope that Blogger would shut it down.
And, before that pesky one-syllable question pops into your impressionable young mind, I will explain:
The simple goal of this project was to inspire...
Creativity. Love. Compassion. Change.
I won't speak for WolfPack... but we wanted to be the flippin
Mother Teresas and Shane Claibornes of Blogger. Ambitious. I know.
It is that enthusiasm for life that I have been severely lacking for the past months.

Project Inspiration: FAIL.
How can the uninspired... inspire?
I can get wax-poetic faster than a New York Minute... but I'll get to the point.
God is Good,
This life is beautiful,
and
EVERYONE is deserving of love.
And, finally, I feel like myself again. Or, at least I'm getting there.
And, finally, I feel like myself again. Or, at least I'm getting there.
Reader, I wish you could understand.
Those three things are SO very simple...
they've been preached, cliched, and slapped on posters and bumper stickers so much that we don't truly take to heart their true depth.
[Honestly, the loss of value in our society is another discussion... we'll get to it in time].
But those three things: God, Life, and Love...
they are the essence of everything.
And it's all interconnected in a self-reflexive, introspective beauty that takes my breath away, yet revitalizes my soul all at the same time.
Gosh, I'm just so dang excited.
I can hardly wait to explore what's been going on in my heart and my mind for the past few months in relation to this fire of joy and of change that has hit my bones so passionately!
I can smell the freshness of the new year just around the corner.
Oh1 and what it will bring with it!
Are you coming along with me?
Peace & Love.

[The following two videos are crazy joyful! I love this sort of wildness].

Call the Po-Po, ho
Folks who know WolfPack and I know that we are nice people.
We love to have a good time.
We thrive on encouraging and inspiring others.
We're bubbly, energetic, eclectic souls who love life and positivity.
However, there is a small matter concerning our humanity and how it likes to show itself from time to time.
I mean, we could be walking around minding our own business then all of the sudden that icky side decides to jump out of the bushes in a trench coat to reveal itself to children and elderly women. You know what I mean? We're talking about swearing.
Sometimes, you just gotta let it out.
When I stub my toe for the umpteenth time, hollering "frickin' tartar sauce" just isn't up to par with my excruciating pain and annoyance boiling within me.
WolfPack and I are watching FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Part II... looooooong story short, shit's happening.
I VERY nearly yelled this...
"WHAT THE F*** IS GOING ON!!! EDWARD ELRIC JUST GOT MOTHER F***ING SWALLOWED BY GLUTTONY!!! MOTHER F***ING DAMN IT!!! GRRRRR!!!!! "
but instead, I very nearly posted it to my Twitter account. [Thank you, WolfPack for your discernment. I was caught up in the moment].
So, go ahead a drop that F-bomb that's on the tip of your tongue. Flip the Bird. Catharsis you little heart out. CATHARSIS. CATHARSIS. CATHARSIS.
But, don't make a habit of it, and don't do it around children.
and, mind some form of social manners.

With a heavy heart.
Although both spirit and heart hurt with all the life within me. There is a fire burning in my heart telling me not to give up yet.
You don't give up either it will help this WolfPack feel like there is a real pack behind me.
I love you all
You're B E A U T I F U L,

The Fire Inside ME
There are certain dreams that I have always wanted to come true. I want to meet people, listen to their stories, spread the word, and change a generation. How do I do this? I am not sure, but I know that one man had this very same dream and he made it true. His name is Andrew Jenks and he is coming to my school soon. He is my living breathing hero, he did it, made this dream we share come true.
I am not sure how I can start or if I will ever accomplish what I want to do but I am going to try. I feel that
F I R E
inside me growing and warming up my soul. It is just too hard to ignore.
My challenge to you is to find that F I R E inside you, feed it, follow it, and do some good.
You're B E A U T I F U L,

it's been a long, long time...
Dear friends,
Forgive me for my absence...
the way in which the world has been spinning these days has left my heart and head in a jumble.
Give me a little more time to sort out my thoughts,
and I'll be back and ready for action.
Get excited.
********************
But for now, here is a trail of bread crumbs.
Follow them and you'll be able to sneak a peek behind the veil of my mind and soul.
(sounds rather exhilarating, doesn't it).
ONE.
TWO
Read Colossians 1:9-14
(The Amplified Bible Translation is SUPERB!)
THREE
Mere Christianity by Clive Staples Lewis
Let's just say that, with the exception of my Bible, I've never written in a book more.
FOUR
2 anime series + 1 powerful song + 1 popular song =
one insanely powerful revelation that I can hardly wait to share!
FIVE
Sleeping At Last's March EP
SIX
George MacDonald
I'm currently reading An Anthology and Phantastes. I'm in love.
SEVEN
Yes, the earthquake and tsunami in Japan leaves me heart broken and devastated!
For now, all I can do is pray Japan and the broken lives and homes its people.
But, let's not forget that there is unrest in practically any nation you can name.
Incredible uprisings in Libya and Yemen...
The revolution in Egypt is FAR from over...
There are revolts in Tunisia...
and intense protests in Bahrain.
KEEP PRAYING
and thank God Almighty for the blessed life you have.
How can your life bring light and life to those in need?
think about it.
pray about it.
then do something about it.
Grace and Peace be with you,
<3 JamJam
