[FOOD • 4 • THOUGHT]

"Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it."

Let's Say It Together..."I AM A WORKAHOLIC"

They say that the first step to recovery is to admit you have a problem...so here goes nothing.

I...AM...A...WORKAHOLIC!!!



Yes, I am a workaholic and I know it. I honestly believe that I was born to be a workaholic, a "break my back because no one can be better than me unless I let them" hard worker. I was taught that a rigorous work ethic would be my flotation device in a world full of drowning procrastinators...thanks DAD. lol. I was also born in the year of the Ox. We have an extremely high propensity for working. When others are throwing in the towel exhausted and out of breath, that is when I am hitting my stride, my pace. I have yet to fully isolate if I like working just for the sake of working or if I'm in it for all the financial gains...((shrugs)) maybe it's both.



Now, the above statements aren't necessarily bad, but my constant need to be busy is starting to effect my health and my sanity. I have extreme insomnia...my brain is constantly plotting out my next move. I find only a moments peace in a 2 or 3hr rest and then I'm back at it. I also feel as if I am missing out on adventures and opportunities. I am a free spirit for sure...the wind is constantly trying to blow me to greener pastures, bluer skies, and crystal clear waters of possibilities, but my anchor has always been work ((I'm sure this is a feeling that most 9 to 5 corporate workers share with me)) lol.


Anywho, the other night when I was working out and listening to my iPod, Kanye West's song SPACESHIP came on. These few words are still echoing in my head.


"I've been workin' this grave shift and I ain't made sh*t. I wish I could buy me a spaceship and fly past the sky"



Somehow...I'm gonna find away to fly my kite and be the kite at the same time. (if that makes any sense)...Somehow.

Thanks for listening to my thoughts of the day. I appreciate each and every one of you!! xoxo ♥

MORE (("POWER")) TO YA...Kayne's Back!!

Ahem...(clears throat)...Kanye West is back with his newly released & much anticipated single "Power", off his upcoming album Good Ass Job. The beat for "Power" is crazy and intricate as usual, but the song in itself lacks an addictively memorable chorus like some of his other singles that have been so popular.



As for Good Ass Job, Kayne's 5th Album, it's set to come out sometime around September, and I personally cant wait to hear what Mr. West has in store for us this time. Roc4Life indicates that we will see Kanye collaborating with artists like RZA, Drake, Q-tip, and Pete Rock among others. Another Classic Kanye Album? I'd say it's shaping up to be that way. Hopefully this newest album will bring back more of Kanye's rap and less R&B, even though 808s & Heartbreak were alright in their own ways...((shrugs)) I guess.



Below is the a YouTube link to the song. Take a Listen.



What do you think of Kanye's newest single, Im interested to know?!

Thanks for stoppin by to read again loves!
