Life on the Borderline

hmmm.... so I've decided to jump on the blog bandwagon for a few reasons;

1. I'm at a point in my life where I'm doing a lot of growing, I'm learning life lessons, skills and things about myself that I never thought I would. I would like to share it in a place where it's impossible to be interrupted mid-sentence...well unless my computer crashes in which case some of my newly learned skills will come in handy.
2. I like to write, writing has always been good to me... I can see my thoughts and this is quite beneficial to someone who has had more than the recommended encounters with foot-in-mouth syndrome.
3. Its nice to see how people think, feel and express themselves in a world slowly being overcome by such hustle and bustle. If you think about the past few weeks, days even....can you tell them apart? Or are they all smooshed together like one big day...i.e...alarm goes off, you shower, get dressed, check fb on your smartphone, drive to grab your coffee, curse traffic, arrive at work or school, sigh through the day, eat lunch, feel guilty about whatever choice you made for lunch, drive home....again cursing traffic and the traffic jams and wondering where all those cars miraculously go when the traffic opens...get home...exhausted...eat again, perhaps have the pleasure of seeing loved ones...again check facebook, dread the following day, sleep, AND repeat. Sometimes we have the pleasure of looking forward to a trip or get together and that's wonderful however I'm slowly realizing that one day if I'm blessed enough to make it to old age I don't want to look back and see one...long...smooshed day with sprinkles of fun. I don't want to spend time at jobs I despise, I don't want stress from traffic to take years off my life and I don't want spend my time obsessing over past events or worrying about the future. Why? because I can't live there, I can't go back and I can't catapult into the future. I can live now, in this moment. 

So - this blog is about my moments on the borderline of balancing life in a material world and life in a spiritual one. On the borderline of insanity from the material world and trying to escape into a world of bliss. I've always been one to challenge and question in my own way and I'll do that here. I'm going to push and question my way through this life sharing my lessons and my distress and hoping to not fall into the material monotony that so many of us fall prey to.

By the way- Yes, I believe in grammar. Yes,  I know proper grammar. However, there are many times I just chose not to use it. Why? Because life isn't about punctuation.
