Every day is ice cream and chocolate cake

I have had so much time to reflect while I've been here in colorado and as much as I love it and I feel like every other minute I am thinking about the reasons why i need to be here forever...Part of the reason for that is because its easier to believe in God here...i know you are confused, I am too but when I see the kind of beauty that I saw at sunset tonight you would understand why too...

but more than anything I have been thinking about contentment. The moment, your life, the current situation..it all is what it is. you cant change it...And I am in philadelphia now, although I hate the city I love the people. I have amazing roommates, friends, and a church that I wouldnt change for the world. And for that. I am truly thankful and content. It is what it is. And to me it is wonderful.

These are some lyrics I have been listening to on repeat from the weepies...

You can ask about it, but nobody knows the way
No breadcrumb trail to follow through your days
It takes an axe, sometimes a feather
In the sunshine and bad weather
It's a matter of getting deeper in, any way you can

All this beauty
You might have to close your eyes
And slowly open wide
All this beauty, we traveled all night
We drank the ocean dry
And watched the sun rise

I can see your new awake
Let me assure you friend:
Every day is ice cream and chocolate cake
And what you make of it, let me say
You get what you take from it so be amazed
And never stop, never stop, never stop
You gotta be brave
