Prince, Delirious
I get delirious whenever you’re near.
Lose all self-control, baby just can’t steer.
Wheels get locked in place.
Stupid look on my face.
[The Best Prince Song]
Can You Take Me Higher? — Creed
It’s a legitimate question.
It seems I’ve been making a lot of friends lately. I even managed to repair a relationship that seemed to be on the fritz. I now officially have no reason to bitch, moan, shit talk, or otherwise be discontent with my circumstances. My bed continues to be made and order continues to be established in my life. I continue to read books and expand my knowledge. The exercises I put myself through are yielding proper fruit. Every day I become more disciplined, more open, more sociable, more refined. The pattern has been established. It is now time to change tacs.
Change, nothing stays the same .

Unchained, yeah you hit the ground running.

Add a little juice.
Personal growth is a valid topic of conversation and an adequate thing to write about so long as it applies and so long as it doesn’t become redundant. A rule that I instituted a long time ago is U.R.G.E. (Useless Redundancies Get Eliminated) This is so that I don’t sound like a broken record, waxing my ego and talking about how cool I am. I don’t need to repeat myself more then once (or twice) and my awesomeness speaks for itself. There’s just not a lot to gain by feeding that. It’s boring and hardly enigmatic. As I move forward I shall begin refining my focus and bringing my immediate and broad goals into the spotlight. I plan to lead by example and show the gains I make following the method. There are rules to this shit and if you figure them out you can make the rules. Here’s another rule: “Effort pays off.”
When wisdom enters your heart, And knowledge becomes pleasant to your soul, Thinking ability will keep watch over you, And discernment will safeguard you…
Proverbs 2:10, 11
Higher Ground — Stevie Wonder
Keep on trying.
I’m absolutely overwhelmed with gratitude. I understand exactly what it is I have and I take absolutely none of it for granted. I’m still figuring things out, so I’ll miss a step, skip a beat, and do things that humans do. That’s the nature of the beast. There will always be a lesson I have not learned. It’s not about being perfect. It’s about taking aim and letting go. It’s about readjusting and trying again. Masters have failed more times than a novice has tried. It’s about faith.
Give it to me, baby.
