Is love selfish or is it selfish to love?

You know… we lose ourselves in so many things in this life. We get so wrapped up in our time and how to best utilize it. But if you were to think about what you lose yourself most in…that would be our loves wouldn’t it? Wouldn’t you agree that we spend most of our time reaching for the ability to live out our dreams?

Now our loves and dreams may be; our work, our hobbies, our pets or a special person- But regardless we spend so much time devoting ourselves to these loves … why is it that we find ourselves sometimes feeling guilty when we maybe want more for ourselves? Really…don’t we all just want to find ourselves…don’t we all just want to let our guards down and do what makes US happy? Not necessarily something or someone else happy? You will never know what you don’t know …meaning when you let those guards down it could be the best thing that ever happened to you, but you will never know if you keep them up. I learned that a couple years back.

I think there are a small number of truly, good-hearted people in this world--they always put others first. Now this is an amazing attribute to hold however; this good-heartedness comes with a hefty price. What if your love was making other individuals loves come true? What if your love wasn’t as significant to someone else as it was to you. For instance; we have people out there who are not capable of seeing their true abilities to grow. They are fine with settling and they are fine with mediocre ambitions. Well a person like myself is quite the opposite. I set larger than life goals for myself because I know one day I can attain it, because I am very driven. Because of who I am. Someone else may not think that for themselves, which is fine. Yet as a good-hearted person, wouldn’t you want to help motivate and push someone to reach their full capacity..? To reach their potential....just like you do for yourself? It’s human nature to want to do so. When I see someone who has so much talent, or intelligence, or spark and they do nothing with it…I question why? Why does that person not love to love? Why are they okay with settlement? Why do they not partake in activities to attain a richer life? My natural reaction would be to push that person until they saw for themselves their abilities, but another person would just give up. Is that selfish? I have thought about it for the past couple days…and to be honest I don’t think so… I think any ‘normal’ (what is normal anyway?--I hate using that word) rather a lot of people would choose themselves over another. They would choose to let go of helping one reach the ability to love something, in order to maybe spend that time reaching their owns loves. And you know what…I think that’s okay. If you see something in the world that would make your life potentially a better life…wouldn’t you want to reach out for it? Wouldn't YOU want to push YOURSELF , (just like you were trying to push that other person) to gravitate towards reaching another love for yourself as opposed to pushing someone who never really loved a love? Ideally isn’t that what you would be doing as the good-hearted individual? You would be pushing a person to reach for something they really never wanted, as if your love of helping someone actually conceptualized a love that was never there for that person? I don’t know that’s just my take on it. I think love should be patient, love should be kind but it should also be true. True love can be to yourself and not always towards someone else or something else.

Sometimes I pace back and forth in my own mind wondering what I would of done if I attacked certain loves instead of running from the fire they ignited in my direction? Where would I be now? Would I be more in love or less…? Would I be helping myself more or less…? Would I have been dis servicing someone else by taking my chances with a certain love? Now not to say I regret anything…because every single decision in this life has made me a much stronger person. Love is such a huge part of my life even if it is love of my career, self love, or a person…whatever it may be. If I didn’t know what love felt like you wouldn’t be reading these words right now. Love is really the best kind of inspiration to pull from. It has every emotion snuggled inside of it battling to come out. But you know what… I believe in more than one chance at A certain love. If you get what you need but not what you want, if you try your best but don’t succeed, when you feel in stuck in reverse, when you lose that something you just cant replace or you love someone and it goes to ultimate waste…do not give up. Do not subdue to the defeat but rather fight harder. If it is your love…(you career, a person, any venture) it is worth fight. It IS worth it. If you never try you will never know. Is it selfish to fight for something when it’s not yours? No. Life is a spiderweb of loves intertwined with one another to bring us to a blissful happiness. Loves are Loves whether they are yours or someone elses. Just be able to draw the line between what is truly your love and what someone elses is. You do not want to be stuck, twisting and turning on the spiderweb of life unable to move forward. Sometimes you have to put yourself first, regardless of the circumstances, in order to be happy ....and guess what? That is okay.

nightly gratitudes.

So tonight is going to be a little different then most. Tonight I am going to talk about only one thing I would like to dedicate my gratitude to.

'Season Premiere video is amazing! Great stuff, would like to see more of this band'
'The Season Premiere's music video was PHENOMENAL!!'
'I love love The Season Premiere's music video! It's more than pretty amazing and the ending is golden. :) Not to mention, now I can't get Anything But Love out of my head...:)'
'The song Anything But Love by the Season Premiere was awesome! I can't stop listening to it!'
'The featured video by the season premiere, is awesome. catchy song, great lyrics, and incredible video - extremely talented guys and stoked to hear more!'
'Ni**a I aint made of money but The Season Premiere's new video is gold.'
'Just saw The Season Premiere's new Anything But Love video and I am in love...amazing video!!!'
'Great job with the music vid, Crystal Kimberly!!! I was so impressed--great job putting this all together, and I wish you tons of success!!'
'Um, Loved the video. :) The videography was awesome--angles, light, everything. And the music is awesome. :)'

Above is a very small taste of some of my favorite comments left on the Glamour Kills Facebook Wall since yesterday when we released the video for 'Anything But Love'. Never did I think a year ago when Justin and I were talking across the country to each other (he in Tempe, AZ and myself in Albany, NY) that this would be happening. That this much positive feedback would be coming our way. Hell never did I think I would get a three person crew together to drive across the country with a couple hundred bucks in our pockets that we raised through Kickstarter. The boys of The Season Premiere have really changed my life...all corniness aside. I am not just referring to the video and the career opportunities...but I'm more so referring to how real, talented, down to earth, passionate, unique, and insane these boys are. Their music brings such a catchy, uplifting, 90s throwback feel that I think maybe the music realm has lost touch of. Their music isn't just about the cliches but the true and bare emotions that they personally have endured in their lives. Isn't that what music is supposed to be about? I know it used to be.

Less than a month ago I was sitting in Justin's car with Jami(part of my lovely crew), Travis, and Terrence listening to the full EP (to be released on the 23rd of August) called 'For All the Lovers' for the first time. And I remember to this moment how lost,in the most amazing way possible, that I got in the music. Maybe that's because I knew where a lot of the stories told in the melodies came from, but maybe it was also because of the sound they offer through each note Justin sings, to the smoothness of Travis's back up vocals and raw guitar talent, to Riley's insane ability to pound his heart into every beat of the drum, and Terrence's love to strum the bass. Yes 'Anything But Love' is a catchy-radio friendly-fun song, but the rest of the EP?! Pheww you better watch out.

I am so grateful for not only meeting these boys but for the opportunity of working with them and helping them live their dreams. The smile across their faces when they pick up their instruments and see a crowd in front of them is just unbelievable. If you doubt The Season Premiere at all as a band go to The Glamour Kills Facebook page and that doubt will surely disappear. I myself know from working at Glamour Kills that they seldomly get a response like that to many bands. The fact that so many people responded in less than 20 hours- over 1300 views on youtube, traffic like crazy on the Glamour Kills Blog, over 175 facebook comments, and tweets up the Wazzoo--is nuts. Quotes right from some of my good friends at Glamour Kills were 'We were so impressed.' 'What the hell did you do right for this to happen?!' Everyone keep in mind The Season Premiere is an unsigned band and I think they have proved it is possible to get somewhere in this music business even if unsigned. Mike Gentile from Hey Monday, Mark from Glamour Kills, Brian the lead singer of The Summer Set, Craig Owens of Drugs, The Gunz Show, and The Downtown Fiction are just SOME of the people already in the business who believed in The Season Premiere enough to spread the love.... That's not even including the hundreds of fans, family members, and friends who took the time to listen, enjoy and spread our hard work. Now it's your turn....what do you think? Check out our video at www.glamourkills.com/blog and you will be just as amazed.

I think we were all very lucky to meet one another and I know we all appreciate one another more and more everyday. ( Love you boys-Justin, Travis, Terrence, Riley and Matt & to my crew all the love in the world- Jami, Alex ,Dan & Joe)

I am grateful for yesterday. I am grateful for today. I am grateful for tomorrow. I am grateful for them. and I am grateful for us.

crazy. stupid. love.

Awhile back i wrote a blog that contemplated the rules that govern love. Well through all deliberated viewpoints i say 'screw the rules.' In the time it takes you to learn those rules you have potentially missed out on all the raw emotions and moments. I mean really...what happened to romance? What happened to secret notes being passed + car doors being opened + lame pick up lines + slow dances in the rain in the middle of the street + her favorite flowers + cliches + raw first dates + hopeful forevers + awkward silences + spelling your feelings in candles + picnics on the beach + so on so forth. i mean when someone says 'ohh those things only happen in movies.' Well yea sure... hell why do you think that is? It's because we are all busy saying that + not doing it. romance is not about being lazy and unthoughtful...it's about the significance of your conversations with someone + knowing what makes them smile...knowing what makes them tick...the significance of GETTING to know all of that about a person. i mean the trip to loving someone is almost equal to when you first realize you DO love them. Effort is the first way to a persons heart, girl or guy. it may be crazy to love someone, it may be stupid to fight for them, but when you find your soul mate their love is worth the fight, the will to never give up. Through all hard, through all good, through all. just a thought i had tonight. a thought we should all think about from time to time.

no longer fixed at zero.

man oh man. hey World! If you haven't noticed--lately writing in this beloved blog of mine has come far and in between with the life i have developed this past year. between the most draining full time job to hours upon hours of passion filled freelance work to finding a second job i have little time to pour my soul to all those who care to read. neglecting this blog-i realized-isn't just hurting those who enjoy the read but myself. i have realized that although very public, this typed diary helps me cleanse. it helps me rid my days of negativity and inhale a positive aora. we all know the positive is necessary to survive in this life we live. the negative i have undoubtedly been rained on by was like a vulcher on my shoulder telling my to give in. to give into the comfort of settling. to give into the unhappy endeavors i was partaking in. to give into the laziness. to give into my biggest fear-failure. never did I think that after 23 years of life i would still be in this small town with barely anything checked off my list. so what you ask is my determination to all of a sudden get out of this quicksand that I unfortunately have been slowly sinking in for a year? well i intend to share with you a bucket list of the things i have already checked off my list but also the things i want to and will complete in the next six months. now six months may seem like a long time..but really is it? what were you doing six months ago? that was back in March. ! . yea people it is already August! we have to get on our goals. whether i am sleeping 8 hrs or 2 hrs a night i will do the things on my list because i know these are the things that make me incredibly happy. they make me who i am. i went from being an incrediblly driven individual to that person who gets caught up in comfort, bills, and busy life. i lost track of me. crystal kimberly. time to change that. no longer will i be fixed at zero but rather i will be reaching for dreams, goals, love, freedom from disappointment and negativity. i will surround myself with only positive passion and fulfillment. and i hope you do the same. my next blog will be the bucket list i intend to complete in the next six months. stay tuned.

much love

What does Lovestrong mean to me...?

Lovestrong is much more than just a word. It is much more than just an idea or an emotion. It is much more than an action or a potential. It is a movement. A movement both internally to the individual and external to the masses. We love and enable ourselves to fall victim to vulnerability. We may even lose ourselves in that vulnerability in hopes of gaining just as much love as we give. Well... lovestrong is when we fall so far into vulnerability and then come to the realization that we are much stronger than that. We gain control of ourselves in order to crawl out of that hole of lost emotion. The hole of empty love. The hole of lost thoughts and feelings. Lovestrong is the amazing feeling when you realize how much you're worth. Lovestrong is the incredible dance we dance between the gray shades of black and white of a relationship. It's getting back onto our feet, letting go of the past and our misconceptions of a relationship in which did not work out how we presumed it would. Lovestrong is saying it is okay to be sad and taking that sadness and utilizing it as fuel. Fuel for the heart to be stronger. Fuel for the heart to smile. Fuel for the heart and soul to no longer be governed by rules. It's believing in a better tomorrow even if pain is what you must undergo. it's fully admitting to how you truly feel as opposed to submitting to it. It's transitioning from a caged heart to a freed soul through a fresh start. It is finding peace within and spreading that to all points in your life. Lovestrong is utilizing your wrongs in life in order to inspire your rights in life. Lovestrong is knowing that no matter what ...There is good around the corner and you will do whatever you have to to pick yourself up to get there. Lovestrong is taking your black and blues and ridding them of all pain. it is basically to me the happiness you find in yourself by picking up pieces and utilizing what made them fall apart to better yourself.

Do you ever wonder about the good behind each word?
The feelings in which each of us have undoubtedly preferred.
As you go left I attempt to go right.
A dance lost in the gray shades of pure black and white.
Finding a place to stand, while you swirl around the potentials.
Instead of finding a place to land, we jump the puddles of all nonessentials.
Worries are lost in the shadows of what unknowns we once were.
While happiness crawls in the being that meeting made occur.
Wonders hung over the pedal of an unforgettable calla lily.
Is this perfectly imperfect moment too good for a being like me.
Happiness is much more than a smile to a face, or a beat to the thriving heart.
Happiness is conceived in the center of the soul, the pain of fire getting a restart.
When a never says never, lovers say love does exist.
For love is forever, a feeling one can't take and ignore or try to resist.
While most lovers grasp the love they are proud to wear on their shoulder.
Some lovers hide in the past love that most lose when they grow older.

lovestrong.
Who says love has any rules or that rules are what govern love?
Who says that there's a right or wrong when a heart beats so strong?
Who believes in forgetting yesterday in order to be okay today?
Who believes in a better tommorow, if pain is what you must forego?
Why not be governed by love rather than trying to control it?
Why not reveal how you truly feel as opposed to choosing to submit?

lovestong.
Deliberations of a street no longer walked.
slowly losing concrete in the whiteness of a passing season.
While eyes had once been deeply interlocked.
transpired into a blindness with an age of underlying reason.
What was brought up suddenly.
began to ice over as one sat too quietly.
Something one never thought to expire.
a lonely girl tangled in life's neverending love wire.
Caged by a heart and freed through a fresh start.
Never really knowing what to say, emotions always getting in the way...

lovestrong.
her chance to turn and run.
even with love in plain sight.
choosing to stay-for the past is over being done.
No more divided black and white.

lovestrong.
a feeling of release emits into the air.
an emotion existing for which you can not prepare.

lovestrong.
life has brought us to this moment of fearless heartache.
it's time to push on the gas before hesitations urge life's emergency brake.

lovestrong.

lifestrong.

So...it has been months upon months since I have even attempted writing a heart filled blog. These past couple months have been filled with changes...changes I would of never imagined. Changes that have consumed me not only physically but emotionally, mentally, and both externally and internally. Changes in my career. Changes in my personal life. Changes in my wants. Changes in my needs. And most importantly changes in me as an overall person. I've dealt with success and failure at the same time. I have felt pain smack me across the face as happiness made my heart beat to shy away the pain. I've traveled and not traveled enough. I've loved and not given love enough. I've cried and laughed. I've helped and been helped. I've dreamt and dreamt bigger. I have checked some things off my list and added ten more to fill it's place. I have watched those who deserve to be watched and hid from those moments that need darkness. I've been between moments of black and white only to fall into the shades of gray. I've reminisced of the past and lost myself in the potential of a future. I've thought of the present and ran away of change needed to get to that future. Yet even when trying to avoid change here I am...changed.

I have had much time to think about life-as i always do regardless of any time restraint, but I recently came to the realization that I am a person of question marks. There is always more that I want. And yes this want factor makes me a very driven person but there is never an answer to all the questions of Crystal Kimberly. I guess that is what makes life ...life though. Aren't we all searching for an answer? Aren't we all living life to strive for more and in the process grow? Whether you are in repair from a loveless bruise or running around with the heart of life you will always question and search for an answer. That i think is what makes me lifestrong.

You have to have a good head on your shoulders in order to prosper in life. I've had both detrimental and amazing times in a matter of months. I've road tripped across the country and shot a music video while meeting amazing, incredible people, but I have also lost some significant people and moments in my life. It's a give and take world and I have just learned what taking means. You can't go through life being 100% giving. I have tried that and it was great but it also always left me with a mere empty feeling inside at times. I could never figure out why I wasn't one hundred percent happy when I had such a great life to be thankful for. Well traveling across the country, taking an idea I had and transforming it into a tangible, full scale production made me realize why I had that once empty feeling. You ALWAYS have to take time for yourself and do something YOU want/need to do regardless of what other people think. Who cares if someone doesn't think it's possible. Who cares if there are those who deny you'll reach success or those who refuse to admit you are right in doing what makes you happy. It is your life and you have to be lifestrong in order to make the best and most out of it. It's your path to paint, it's your path to follow, and it's your path to conquer. Don't let bumps in the roads or negative situations ruin your ability to conquer your painted path. Give while you take and take while you give for that mindset will get you where you want to be, and those who love you will be right by your side helping you paint a longer and greater path to conquer on your way.

Dress your wounds, trust your strengths, and face the night. Crave the touch, feel the pain, and know the signs.

I have a quick topic I'd like to blog about. Short and sweet but it's a topic I was discussing with a friend of mine and I want to express my views on it...Sometimes individuals go through things we can't seem to explain or comprehend no matter how many hours are spent interpreting or contemplating different situations. Ultimately some things are unfortunately out of our hands. And really sometimes we must take certain endeavors and learn from them as opposed to being defeated by them. The best example that can be utilized is love. Ideally individuals use love as an excuse to not work hard at a relationships. They say 'All that matters is that you are in love.' Well I am sorry to break it to everyone but love isn't always enough, and getting to the point where you accept that is the most mature level one can be at. We all go through the ups and downs of relationships, but no one should ever regret any experience they have had. Each experience grows a new characteristic, a new knowledge in each of us. That knowledge then begins to turn into a fundamental stepping stone in life. These stepping stones are the mind's thoughts expressed in each heart beat. Now I think some of us tend to get so lost in the arguments and the problems that we rely on hope to get us through. Yet there is so much more involved in a relationship. It really isnt just about love or hope. It's about the fight, about the will, about the appreciation, and about the happiness. When you get to caught up in the bad..you tend to forget the good and your begin to lose not only the relationship but yourself in a black hole of whys. Contemplating why all the time is more detrimental than anything, and ultimately it leads to defeat. So you must; Dress your wounds, trust your strengths, and face the night. Crave the touch, feel the pain, and know the signs in order to be okay and live life the way it's intended to be lived. That is all:) Goodnight bloggers!!

The power of a Social Network-

So as I arrived home today after seeing the movie Social Network I could not help but think about the significant influence and affect social networks actually have had on this world- internally and externally that is. I mean think about it...How many times do you check your facebook, twitter, tumblr, blogs, myspace... a day? We basically have computers in the palm of our hands and eyes glued to those devices 50 percent of the day. Think about the potential and ease of access connected to that fact. Our world has been externalized on this thing we call the Internet. Now not only do our roommate's/friends/family/significant others know what we are doing, but so does everyone who we choose to share that with on the lovely 'world' of the Internet. Think about the capabilities that these social networks have and have had-good and bad.

But.... what really is a social network? Is a social network an external device utilized with the tip of our fingers across a keyboard.?.?.Or is our social network the many face to face encounters we endure on a daily basis? I mean ideally we want both..right? To be able to keep in touch with people, and share our lives with those who would not necessarily be able to be part of it on a daily basis. Yet at the same time we want to be able to walk away from that network and go to real life encounters and socialized settings. I guess that is why there is such an enormous buzz with things such as: facebook and twitter. I, personally, use both plus some of these other social networks and I think they have been a very positive addition to the lives of many. It is actually crazy to think how fast information spreads utilizing these sites, as if it wasn't flowing fast enough before all of these sites came into existence. You can type something on twitter and all your followers, whether you have 30 or a million, will see it within seconds. This is significantly beneficial in so many ways. Think about the possibilities it has brought to charities, movements, and businesses...

Being that I have a marketing degree- I have learned the power of words, and the power of words on a network where thousands of people tune in JUST to read those words....the possibilities are endless. That is REAL power. A power of intriguing people to the point where they fixate on these status updates and picture uploads... it is quite incredible. But then there is also debate as to whether this is actually a good thing? Do we really want people to know every detail of our lives?! Some write where they are and what they are doing constantly on the sites...is that really safe? People share their lives with friends AND strangers...is that responsible? And then what about the professional realm of it?? I have heard so many stories of friends being denied jobs or fired for things they said on twitter or pictures they posted on facebook? Yes- everyone has their skeletons, their personal lives...but should we integrate that personal life into a network that blurs the lines of professionalism and socialization? I'm not too sure we should. Facebook went from a very exclusive network to a network like all others. Once strictly for college students, facebook has opened it's doors to any single person with a mere email address. What really sets it apart from the rest anymore? Of course some may argue Facebook is worth the amount it is worth (25 billion dollars) because it began to integrate: business, advertising, and no strict exclusivity. However, did that in turn take away it's diversification? I don't know...I guess this is a personal opinion each individual has to arrive at on their own. It is just quite crazy to think about how the youngest billionaire in the world, Mark Zuckerberg-26 years young, was able to create this online hang sesh where people spend a significant amount of time on each day.

Someone said to me tonight,

'It is crazy to think that every individual is just one idea away from being a billionaire.'

Now I being the person I am... do not agree with this statement 100 percent but with the right resources, knowledge, background, and drive an idea CAN form into a monumental movement in this world that will go down in history. And that IS a power many can inherit with hard work.

Think about it....
