So here goes my first short thought. 

When I look at the world- I see bodies of people and aside from the minimal amount who create their own either incredible or horrific moral code the majority of them live by what society has set out for them; they are born, they are raised, they get an education, then they try find work and then they slave away at whatever job(s) they find for the rest of their lives encircled by the various relationships they form. 

So- what I thought about tonight was what would happen if individuals decided to completely reshape this majority-based moral code and live life in a completely reshaped way... think of it like this: you are born, you then get a general education for a few years (exploring all areas of careers and life) until they finally decide on their choice of careers- not for money, not for status, not to impress, not to live by someone else's expectations of you... but a career that makes you glad to be alive and happy for most/all of your life?

Imagine what a remarkably amazing way to live that would be. So, as I was thinking of personally what I believe to be a glorious way to live I thought about what it would be like to live in this way and what I would do... and so:

I'd be born (nothing would change family wise), I would get my basic education and most definitely find myself being interested in photography, writing, singing and acting- a lot of things but thats just a personal thing... I guess each does a different thing for me and a different part of me excels and benefits. I would take photos of interesting, intriguing and beautiful people all over the world whilst travelling with my beautiful boyfriend and dearest friends and family... I would write about everything I do on here and more as I matured and explored further areas of life and knowledge in general, I would sing and write songs about everything I love and hate at concerts performing in huge arenas filled with strangers (for some reason thats less scary for me) and I would act in movies and series getting to be a different character and have various part-time lives. 

Obviously this isn't realistic based on time constraints, balancing things and general life buuut you know what I mean- someone realises they love baking at a young age and instead of slaving away at 18 at science and math they go to cooking school young and excel in something they're good at, waking up every day loving their life because they love what they're doing. 

It just makes more sense to me- that each individual in this mad, crazy, huge world should cultivate what they specifically love and are good at with the absence of money or status in mind and live a life they love. 

I don't know... I'm probably just dreamy due to my lack of sleep.
Let me know what YOU would do if money(etc) didn't matter?

(Oh and while I was writing this I was drinking warm milk with honey and if you haven't already...TRY it.)

Hello! 

[So... the aim of this message is to prove my existence and tell anyone who is interested that I'm back to writing A Piece of Zoe. 

When I started this blog, my aim was to write constant, long, essay-type pieces based on around a number of topics I'd always felt (and continue to feel) strongly about. 

Somehow it seems I had more time or at least gave myself more time; I used to sit and get stuck in one of my pieces for days but then for some reason- I never checked my writings after sharing them (note the spelling mistakes and parts that make no sense...) and this is what I like to call the spontaneous-writer in me; the writer I believe I am- one who gets in a thought in their mind and writes it down the just way it was thought up. 

SO, basically what I'm trying to get at is I was finding it hard not only to find the time to write long pieces but also to distribute complex thoughts at such a rapid pace and so I've decided to embrace the spontaneity in my writing through shorter, more constant thoughts... as well as pictures and anything else I gather along the way.]
