The little things that matter.

By seanbartley. Posted in Uncategorized | 2 Comments »

Hey all, This post may seem deep in nature but they are just some things that are on my mind at the time that I wish to share with you.

Sometimes just living day to day I find that I take so many things for granted. Nothing bad, nothing really that interesting as we would see in this day n age. Just little things that make up the happiness we are strive to be filled with on a day to day basis.

Many people say such things as “Oh wow, we take so much for granted that we have a house, food, friends, family, tv’s and all the best electronics, some people have nothing and we have everything!” For me sometimes I think even smaller than that. Even if I was a poor person living on the streets and all I had was a coat, and a shopping cat as my possessions, (luckily I am blessed with an amazing life thank our God.) I would think of little things so much more as alot of people would. Let me give you some examples.

Today my nieces from grand rapids came to visit for our family Christmas. My brother, and his gorgious 2 children. It was amazing to see them and to have them there, but I felt like I was admiring the little moments and the memory’s/thoughts that I had in my mind more than anything. Seeing them grow almost makes me feel like they are a part of me. I grew up with my brother Troy, and throughout our life until I could remember me and him were the same. Loved the same sports, games, ways to annoy my mother. ha ha just everything and to see him be such a good dad, and to see him turn out to be such an amazing person just makes me admire that more than anything, the little things, that to me and my family are more meaningful then anything money could ever buy.

When sharing personal bonds and friendships, that you know will never be lost, or just being with family and taking in things that don’t fit into our “daily routine”, you have to remember what means most to you. We think of work, stress, money way to much. We all need to focus on things that really matter. Mostly, Personal happiness. I find personal happiness within my family, Maggie, my rock and my girl as well as my best friend, and My Lord. These things I know will never turn their backs on me, and nor will I on them.

Admire little things, things that you don’t strive to on a daily basis and I promise you that you will find things in your heart that you never thought were there.

Hope everyone had an amazing Christmas, I know I sure did!

Until next time, Take care all.

Sean

Mashup – Month in Review…

By seanbartley. Posted in Coffee, Music, Personal, Political | 1 Comment »

!WARNING!
This blog post is in no order, at all, no really its just going to be a ramble to pick up where I have not for the past month or so.

Oh and before I begin, just a FYI…BARACK OBAMA IS OUR NEXT PRESIDENT! sorry…had to do it…

On another note, the media needs to find something to cover, and FAST. Im sick of seeing president bush dodge a flying shoe and that was heading directly at his head. Its just not funny anymore. Now maybe if it HIT him in the head I would not be telling them to stop showing it, because I mean come on thats funny, thats REAL NEWS! :)

What has been happening with me? Not to much really. Now you may think that just because I have not blogged in a long time means that nothing has happened. Thats not true obviously, tho some things are good to limit because they just are not really fun to read. :)

I plan on getting my album done very shortly, I have already had interest from a local magazine in reviewing the album. This is a bit of a boost I need I guess to get the thing polished and done. I do know now that the album will cost 5$ and will be hardcover only at first so you will need to contact me for a copy. I plan to have it purchasable online by the new year, hopefully. I have been in talks with a website called trackitdown.net to set up my own digital label. I have owned a digital label in the past and made a tiny chunk of cash off of it. That was then, this is now. I hope to do this again and make a lot more profit on something I have worked so hard to finish.

Christmas is right around the corner and im ready for it. I have a lot of shopping to get done still, that is kinda of stressing me out because everyone is so hard to buy for this year. I got some awesome gifts for people though. I hope everyone will be happy.

We have made some awesome promo videos for Journeys Coffee. Paul did a awesome job of editing them, check youtube soon for them to be uploaded. I will post them here as well in the coming days.

Things have been good, life is pretty awesome currently. A lot of good things are happening for me and for that I am thankful!

As much of a boring blog post this is, you have all pushed me to write one so i did. I will try my hardest to keep posting blogs. As much as some things have frustrated me as of late im sure that will not be a huge problem for me haha.

I hope everyone is doing well and is having a great holiday season!
