My life has been taken over by throwing out things I don't need and packing up the things I do. It has all been a bit therapeutic. I've also cut off my hair that I have had long and flowy since I could remember. I think this is where someone would say "in with new, out with the old" and that is exactly what it is.
I was wondering what sparked this need for change and I have followed the bread crumbs (or pieces of hair) back to spending the summer with just myself. I got to comfortable with the things around me that I adapted.
Moving out of an empty summer home to a house with my five closest friends, was the deepest, freshest breath. Cutting my hair, literally felt like a weight being lifted from my shoulders. Cleaning out all my old stuff, was like sending out an invitation for the new. I guess what I am trying to get at is, pack up the old and the comfortable and move yourself out, give it away, cut it off -- just do something about it. The more negativity and comfort you settle in, the more it absorbs the person you are. I feel happy, light, energetic, excited, and the best me I can be at this point.

Track of the day is from London duo, AlunaGeorge, called "Your Drums, Your Love."
