“the only people for me are the made ones. the ones who are mad to love, mad to talk, mad to be saved;
the ones who never yawn or say a common-place thing,
but burn burn burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars”
jack kerouac
~
oh my does that just resonate within me
burn burn burn
partly because jack kerouac can string words together like a symphony
and partly because those words make you believe that you can live a life like that
a life filled with burning passion and excitement and chasing your dreams with ferocity
burn burn burn
~
but if you’ve read ‘on the road’
or even seen the movie
you’ll know that jack spent a lot of time on the back of trucks
endless hours waiting to get somewhere
and his searching
did not come without cost
~
so in this life
my life
how do i
burn burn burn
keep inspired
keep moving forward
keep dreaming
and
keep on top of the laundry?
some days it’s hard
some days the fire burns brightly within
i’m so inspired and filled with fabulous yellow roman candles exploding ideas
and other days
well
not so much
~
what do you think
can we do it all
just not every thing every day?
how do you find
balance?
