My friend Chris recently posted something on his Facebook page that touched home with me, so much so that I actually ditched the blog I was going to write and decided to write this instead. To do so I must do a few things first. Thing one is I don’t know this friend as Chris.… Continue reading October 30, 2013

It’s my birthday today and that calls for a special blog. In many ways it’s not much different from my blogs-insight into my personality, opinions on the world, ideas for a (hopefully) better way to and it even starts with a song for the soundtrack live-but in many ways it is. Mostly because I’m putting… Continue reading October 26, 2013

A friend of mine used to joke that he would give anything except the time and effort to get into shape. Making any change in your life requires both of those. Having the desire to make a change doesn’t accomplish anything if you don’t put the work in and recognize the time commitment. Change doesn’t… Continue reading October 23, 2013

I know I’m coming very late to this party, but I have to say that I just don’t get why anyone gives a crap about people who are famous just for being famous. It used to be that you became famous for accomplishing something, or discovering something or even just surviving something. And I don’t… Continue reading October 16, 2013

I believe that we, as individuals, are mostly responsible for determining if we have a good day or a bad day. How we choose to face the day and how we choose to react to what the day throws at us makes up ninety percent of deciding good day or bad day. There are certain… Continue reading October 12, 2013

One thing that I have noticed about me lately that is different than what I’m used to is that, for the first time that I can remember, I’m not concerned with the “end-game” of my actions. That isn’t to say that I don’t care what the consequences are or how they affect my life or… Continue reading October 9, 2013

In an effort to hopefully increase the number of people who read my blog, I am going to make sure I post every Wednesday and Saturday. The Wednesday blog will be more of a thematically connected one (as if it were one long essay that I was breaking up into 1,000 word sections) and the… Continue reading October 5, 2013

Like most people, I’ve always been a big believer in the motto “Actions speak louder than words.” I think the reason that this is basically accepted as a truth is because it speaks to conscious vs. subconscious nature of behavior. Maybe an even better comparison is to the two classifications of muscles: voluntary vs. involuntary.… Continue reading October 2, 2013
