Returning my Appreciation
I am grateful to my friend for bringing music into my life. Before I never cared much about music, and there would be times where I actually listened to music. For christmas, I received this present, an iPod Nano, but I exchanged it for a iPod Touch instead. What matters is the thought. The music gave me a more vibrant life. The music has helped my creativity grow. The music has helped pull me through the hard times. The music has helped me keep my mind straight and has helped me sort out my thoughts as well. Music is now part of my creative process. When I need to think, I plug in the earphones and lay on the bed. I am glad he bought me this iPod- he gave me a tool to help me grow. Whether it was intention or not, I cannot return the favor. A present of this caliber is unmeasurable, so the only thing I will say is thank you. Show my appreciation by continuing to grow and make him and others around me proud. Show them that it was worth it.

Motivation is invisible force that keeps one engaged and moving forward to reach his/her ultimate goal.
What is your motivation?
Have you thought about it? My motivation spawned from someone who once told me I was not good enough, and it continues to push me today. I love to ask the question to people and hear their stories. These are one of the many things that people don’t often think about. Why is that? We all know it is important, but why is it overlooked…? Many people do not know what their motivation is, so what keeps them ticking? What is your motivation? Is your motivation to become a better person than the person that you were yesterday? Is your motivation to give back to the people that have taken care of you in your life? Don’t have one? Can’t find it? Go talk to people, ask them what is their motivation. You will probably not find your answer in their answers, but it will help lead you to yours.
