Keep Breathing

Day: 328

Goal: Start down the long road to getting… CAUGHT UP!

Ok, so let’s just take a moment of silence for a couple of things… 1) My Blog: It suffered terribly in the last month due to an overwhelming schedule and lack of sleep of it’s writer; and 2) Team USA, as they have been eliminated from the world cup… a tragic loss.

I can not believe how long it’s been since I wrote. It’s absolutely embarrassing. More than anything, I feel so bad because there are actually a few (very few) people out there that were actually reading my blog…. And I feel like I’ve let them down. I am so glad there are people that are interested in my crazy life and I really hope that my lack of posts of late will not completely discourage people from reading…. Because I’m BACK! And here to STAY! It was just a lot at once in the past few weeks and it took a lot out of me mentally, but I think I needed the crazy as a wake up call and to remind myself what I view as the big picture.

So I know it seems silly to recap every single day that I’ve missed, but it is something I need to do for my own personal OCD. One of the goals on my list (#30 actually), is to write about everyday of this adventure, and so I really feel like I need to recap even though I missed those days technically. It will satisfy the bucket item in my opinion… hope you can understand, hang in there, and maybe even find some joy in reliving the last month with me.

I’d like to start by posting a song that I think I’ve been listening to everyday, all-day, for the past few weeks. I don’t know why, but for so many reasons it touches me so deeply. It has inspired me in the studio and really helps me find a little bit of clarity in my cloudy life… it’s helped me gain perspective to what is really important in life, particularly when I feel like whining about things that are actually quite trivial. Will this song keep me from complaining, dragging, worrying, and feeling like life is really hard for me sometimes?? No, probably not, but it will help...
