I got a new piercing today. I’ve wanted one in my cartilage for years now, especially since dating Chris. So, I got it done today. I went to Monkey Bones and it only cost $30. Tasty, no?

And for a close-up look:

In your existence, you are the most powerful person. In your world view, you are the one that makes the changes. If you want a change to happen, you make it happen. By saying that you can’t do something, it therefore makes it that you can’t do it. It’s a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy that way. Words have more power than you think, because words form thoughts, ideas, feelings. If you felt sad, you wouldn’t know how to feel it without the words that encompass the emotion. Thus, if your words and thoughts make such an impact on yourself, wouldn’t thinking differently change everything around you? The word “can’t” should not exist, because by clarifying the word, you give in to the negativeness of the word. You can do anything you want, anything you can dream of. You just have to believe it completely. You can’t have those thoughts in the back of your head about how it’s impossible, or you can’t do it, or it won’t work. See it, believe it, be it. If you change your world, the world itself changes. So think “can” and “will” and “am.” Because those words have a power. An amazing power. Those words can and will change the world. I am changing the world.
