Inspiration!

Find and be your Authentic Self....I heard this in a movie and of course I can't think of what movie but I know that the line was delivered in a comedic tone, but I really liked it. Find and be your Authentic Self....I mean I guess it just sounds like something that we should all be doing. It may sound easy, but I don't really think it is. There is a lot going on in our lives and in this world that stop you from expressing yourself truly and honestly, but I think it is important to find a way to really be yourself. OK, so I don't want to get preachy and weird, I just want to share with you what I will be trying to implement in my everyday life. I mean I guess it is just something that has kind of sunk in and I felt like I should share it with all of you :-) I even like how it sounds, Authentic Self, it just sounds like something you want to be.

Another fun little line that I heard this weekend while cleaning my room, I like to have background noise while I clean and that is truly what this movie was; Step Up 2 Take it to the Streets! Ha, so anyway the lead girl says to the lead boy that of course she is falling for; "My mom used to tell me to always be myself and I couldn't go wrong, And I used to think well duh, who else could I be?" OK so the line itself is quite simple and silly, but it is true and sweet and always good to keep in the back of your mind. OK enough of the silly inspirational talk I just wanted to let you all know what I have been thinking about the last couple days :-)

Alright, moving on I want to talk about something else I can't get out of my head and it is a song, well an entire album now! There is this new band that I have discovered that has really just knocked my socks off and after hearing their song on the radio I went out the next day and bought their album and found that all of their songs are pretty fantastic. They are Mumford and Sons and they are a British Band and their album was under Alternative at Best Buy, though I have to say I don't know if I would categorize them as Alternative, I think they are more folksy/indy/alternative, anyway I really like them a lot! Here is the video to their song that is on the radio right now and that I can't stop listening to! The music is amazing and the singers voice is so different and GREAT! Well I hope you enjoy
