It's easy for work or school to drag you down everyday. Sometimes that person that you see in the mirror every mornin' kinda forgets who he or she is and get's lost in trying to keep up with those things that take up so much of your time. It's almost so heavy at times that you wish you could breathe.

Sometimes a phone call from that "home boy" you haven't talked to in a long while or the sudden urge to write poetry empties all those stress induced thoughts and emotions and makes you sane for at least a little while.

What I mean is, is there something or someone that pushes that liitle reset button in your head that makes you say to yourself, "Oh that's right! I am this person."

Personally, my ambitions remind me of what I wish.... no.... will accomplish years from now. I kinda get in a rut when college and the ominous thought of having to find a a job to start paying back those student loans. I kinda get complacent and shit kinda gets put on the back burnner.

Really, the only thing that reminds me of who I am is knowing that I got a lot of shit I want to do and I ain't gonna get done if I allow those thoughts to get me down. Of course, that makes me a bit too driven and I tend to stay up long hours working on projects and to see that everything is perfect with a capital P! I think my Pyscology professor would say that I'm motivating and pushing myself so much that I'm moving out of being complacent at times into putting too many things on my "to do lists". And she'd be right. Oh great, now I'm thinkin' like her.
