I woke up this morning, under the dew of a gray sky with the sun trying to break its way though. The aroma of coffee tickled my nose as the low sound of the tv in the living room rolled into my ears. I stared up at my ceiling for few minutes before realizing what time it was.

-7:36-

I had to be in class at 8:00. I sat up at the edge of my bed a collected myself from sleep grogginess. I buried my face in my hands giving a sigh, before standing. I felt like a zombie. But on the bright side, it was a new day. New days are like unpainted canvases sitting, waiting to be made into works of art with the choices you make. With the decision that etch your day into a sculpture, into a puzzle piece that fits perfectly with the rest of your life. I threw on my cropped jeans, and my baby blue shirt, took a cup of coffee, told my mother i loved her and went off to school.

The sun started to peek through the clouds, the golden rays tearing through the gray skies washing against the Earth causing all the vibrant greens and yellows of starting fall to spark to life. Even the gray asphalt and brown buildings seemed alive in a rather strange way.

I turned into the college, parked, got out took my bag, and I slipped on my iPod and began listening to “Trippin’ On Lust”. A nice heavy electro-house track to further start my day. Ideas were dancing in my head about a new track. A new song. New songs. My life. How everything would be once I make it as a musician.

Starting up a new song is like picking up an instrument for the first time. Its ready to serve its purpose with no questions, no objections. Its ready to accept whatever knowledge you have to offer it. It’s ready to drink it up, soak it up like a sponge and keep it, hold it. It is ready to learn and express like a newborn child. No prior knowledge but than taught how to exist, how to live. Its moments like these that excite me the most, moments like these that make me appreciate life.

I will strive to make differences. I live. I will learn. I will love. I will Exist.
