Exploring the smallest of things

Tiny Things Will Grow

Last week I had listened in on a podcast that my friend is in charge of. It is a small podcast and he is trying to gain a lot of recognition for. The talk of the show you may ask?The Conjuring Franchise.

Horror movies are something I love, so obviously this was something I had to listen to, he is also a very close friend so I felt it was right to show support.

Two hours later, I began to realize something I have overlooked for quite some time.

The smallest of things will grow

My thought on the podcast? It was actually funny and it was really awesome to listen to. Now I'm not just sitting here promoting my friends podcast, There is a huge point to all of this trust me.

Everyday following that day, I have been listening to podcasts by the smallest of groups of people. Aside from those I started watching small time YouTuber's and video game streamers. That's when it really hit me.

We are all at the point in our lives where we are being told that if we don't accomplish one thing we will never make it. We are forced to do things we don't like just so we don't succumb to being a failure.

So what if all you want to do is run a podcast show? So what if all you want to do everyday of your life is play games and try to make money off of it? So what if you just want to make pranks on YouTube and it makes you successful?

Of course you can't just abandon all your responsibilities, but that doesn't mean you can't do what you love. Sometimes you may start off small, but like anything else on this earth if you work at it and dedicate time to something, you will make it grow.

I can't even explain how many times I have seen small side things that all that stuff turn into major careers for people.

You need to work. Hard work is required for everything, but don't be discouraged and just quit on yourself or on the stuff you love to do.

If you're interested in the podcast just search up FactsNotIncluded on facebook and or soundcloud. Or maybe just click on the links.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
