I spend the vast majority of my life inside myself...
...dreaming, contemplating, wondering.

What I create with my hands is only a microscopic speck of sand compared to the endless dunes of what is created with my mind and heart. My greatest accomplishments are only able to seen by myself, locked forever by the restriction of reality.

Every day I attempt to pick the lock. As each day passes, it is slowly worn down, leaking out sand... speck by speck. One day I hope to peacefully play in the dunes of my imagination, but I fear that is impossible.

My Yin-Yang Book

Journal Entry: Fri Jun 4, 2010, 4:09 PM
Facebook l Gallery l dA Portfolio l Watch Me l Note Me

So, I came up with the idea after finally watching Amélie last night, one of the best movies I've ever seen.

Each day I will be adding two daily goals I wish to accomplish:
1: "Yin," focused on myself
2: "Yang," focused on others
Along with that, I'll be taking a picture each day to accompany the goals.
I plan on putting everything in a photo album I bought today, but I'll be writing the goals here too (sorry, no pictures).

Why am I doing this? To add another hobby into my life. With a month gap between spring and summer semester, I've had too much free time. When I have too much free time, it always seems to get wasted by doing absolutely nothing, so I want to do things that will improve my life and hopefully others' too. Also, nostalgia is an awesome feeling and I think it will be very rewarding to look back on the book.

Hopefully I'll be able to stick with this every day, but, knowing myself, I won't be able to...*sigh* ah well!
*Update* I haven't been keeping it up with it every day (oh so surprised...not!). Soo, it is now a whenever I can thing rather than an every day thing. :meow:

Anyways, here are the goals:

One
»Yin: Practice an extra hour of French
»Yang: Tell two people why you love them

Two
»Yin: Complete at least an hour's worth of Traffic School
»Yang: Brainstorm and begin the rough sketch for the 9-month anniversary present

Three
»Yin: Hike to the top of Cowle's Mountain
»Yang: Pick up all the trash you see while walking around

Four
»Yin: Try your best not to apologize if you didn't do anything wrong
»Yang: Make a yummy dinner for the family

Five
»Yin: Don't try to fix something that's not broken
»Yang: Write a letter to your dad for Father's Day

Six
»Yin: Try your best to not care so much about what people think about you
»Yang: Show Gabriel the places that mean the most to you while he's visiting

Seven
»Yin: Try harder to focus on the intentions of others rather than their expressions
»Yang: Try to make taking Hailey to the park a habit
