This blog will be the medium for my thoughts, sometimes it will be inane mutterings and other times it will be deep and thought provoking. Sometimes it will merely be what you should be listening to and other times it will be a call to arms. In the end, however, these are just the thoughts of one man. What do you think?
I think its time to introduce myself.
I am just an average person. I try to be cool. I try to live up to my own inflated self image. I constrain myself within my paradigm, the limits to my personal universe. I believe blindly in the power of science. I lose myself in stories: television shows, books, and video games. I hope for the fantastic, while at the same time informing myself that that will never happen. I try to make an identity for myself, find something unique about myself, something that I will leave behind as I leave this world , as I hope we all do. I have an on/off relationship with the idea of a God. I try to go through life with a smile on my face. I have my strong convictions and my weak ones. I fight what I personally view as injustice, sometimes incorrectly and without a view for others. I have to come to terms with my own anger, my own hate, my own laziness, and my own ignorance.
It sucks. It really does. We all know it, even if we don't admit it. But we can make it better.
We can hope for the fantastic, and work to make a miracle. We can strive to inform ourselves and overcome our own ignorance. We can work out our anger and hate, but not through mindless destruction. We can focus back on the problems of reality and work to make it fantastic. We can make ourselves unique through similarities and our own work ethic. Because in the end... its our choice. What will you do?
