Wake up
go to school
do homework
but every so often there will be a glitch in the system
a spark of sorts
something different
something that makes them realize that THEY ARE ALIVE
and then they slowly fade back into their routine.
They have a hard time recognizing that life is more than just a 4.0
more than their BYU acceptance letter
more than the car they drive
more than the shoes they wear
more than followers, likes and comments
more than everything they were PROGRAMMED to be
life is about making a difference
touching lives
relationships with people not phones
being spontaneous
lasting memories not 24 hour snapchat stories
Dates not DM's
leaving only footprints
taking only experiences
loving and being loved
pursuing your passion
time spent with your mom instead of under the knight.
crying
dreaming
falling in love,
and having your heart broken.
they don't know how to properly appreciate a spark when they see one
so next time you see someone who has been programmed,
try to put a spark in their life,
you never know what they'll do with it.
After all, sparks are what got our fire burning.
SO beautiful! brought passion into my life. Thank you for your spark!
