Why You Should Put Yourself Into Your Work
Preservation Of Moments

We all have dreams and aspirations for ourselves and our work, but the work that is always remembered is done by people who allow themselves to be a part of their work.

What I mean when I say this, is that instead of just creating something and the best way you can end up describing it is that a certain thing happened. It can be a lifeless piece if some life isn't put into it.

When you put yourself into your work, this isn't the case. What results is that you are impacted by your work.

I felt inclined to write this piece because I was talking to a friend of mine a few days ago, and she runs a music blog. She made a post about a band called Joyous Wolf, and I really loved it because when I read her approach, you could see that she didn't just listen to a band.

She took the time to capture how Joyous Wolf made her feel, and it's so vivid. She discusses the songs in excellent detail and it's cool to see what stuck out to her.

The key to why her piece on them is great is that she doesn't just put a playlist and post it. She takes the time to describe why they are a group that deserves to be showcased. She went the extra mile to really apply her experience in something she enjoys and it's fantastic!!

It's important to put yourself into your work because it really shows that we all have a perspective. We all have feelings and we all explain these things in our own way.

So, if the opportunity comes up, put yourself into your work. Without you, your work wouldn't be possible. You have the capability to show your perspective, so don't pass it up.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
