ending the three day funk right here, right now.


the past three days have been hard. i'm not sure why. it just happens that way some times.
so this morning i slept in good and late, woke and feasted on some hafiz quotes and reminded myself that i'm okay. for better or worse, i am who i am. and that it's not my job to please anyone but myself.

and then i grooved to this song for the better part of the afternoon. and my chest opened up. and i felt beautiful as i haven't in quite some time.

I'm not into that type of music...
I'm more of an alternative person. But, the the video is great and words are wonderful!

this is so not my usual thing either. but every once and a while a good pop song can go a long way for me!

Whenever I'm in a funk.
I put on some classic funk.

Thank you thank you thank you for posting this. I've found my new favorite song. I love the music video- the photography theme made my photo geek heart go BOOM. Time to dance in front of my mirror!

dancing always makes me feel better! Glad to see you are getting your smile back. Every now and then, life kicks the crap out of you. It takes a few days to find your way back :)

love the song. what a great way to say "hey, stop tellin' me what to think and do. get over yourself."

hope your hair adventures turn out well.
