This is always the hard part, isn't it? How do you explain yourself, and/or what you're looking for without sounding like a greasy used car salesman? It's something that I've yet to figure out, but I can't help trying, just in case something I say, someday, somewhere, sparks just the right amount of interest in someone else. You never know when a good friend can pop into your life. Every true friend is like a puzzle piece, fitting amongst the moments and experiences that make up who I am. With that in mind, every moment that passes, every person I meet, every thing that transpires, I'm one step closer to my futureperfect.
But where to start? I never know.
I guess I'll knock the basics out with this handy, bulleted list and work it from there.
o - I love music.
o - I'm a pretentious asshat.
o - I'm usually pretty blunt.
That about sums up the basics. I'm a relatively easy-going kind of guy with incredibly varied taste in a vast amount of 'things.' I'm having trouble pinning down anything more specific than that, at the moment.
My goals in life are pretty basic, too. I have high hopes to find a partner: someone I can share everything with, both support and be supported by, and in general experience life with. I suppose it sounds cheesy, written out like that.
I'm in the process of putting together a concept album. It's looking to be a combination of industrial, futurepop, alternative and jazz. Expect sprinkles of other miscellaneous genres. Hundreds of songs have elicited emotions in me, and if I can somehow bring that feeling to other people in the world, well, I have to try. It'll probably be years before it's done, but it's something I'm pretty passionate about.
Lastly, and this is more of a recent revelation, I want to live my life in such a way that I'm a good influence on everyone around me. Not in the manipulative sense, but in the benevolent, passive sense. I want people to spend time with me because they enjoy my company. I want people to walk away from me with a sense of well-being; a sense of comfort. I want people to feel better about life, enjoy a sunset, fucking smile when I'm around. And most importantly? I don't particularly care whether or not they notice it's me that causes it. I just want people to enjoy all that life has to offer.
Those are really my only three serious goals. I'mean, sure, I want money, a house, good food, fast cars, yada yada. But none of that really needs to be explicitly stated. And a lot of that is relatively petty, to boot.
That's about all I can think of for now. There's a lot more, but nothing I can particularly put into words without sounding even more pretentious and greasy. Atleast, not yet.
