stay young
We had a few beautiful days! I feel like I can take on the world now =). I hope you all got a chance to enjoy the weather because its going to be bad for a few days. Im getting the hiking itch already so I fully expect to have some snowy pictures of moutaintops for you all in the coming weeks, check back soon!
Other then this Ive just been studying, learning, waiting… pretty boring actually. One of my cousins recently got divorced that was rough.
I have something to say on the subject of relationships and commitment. There is no real secret to a loving lasting relationship as far as I have seen, the trick is finding someone you can have a lasting relationship with. I have been with a number of women, most of whom had some interesting feature that attracted me but soon enough I found something important that would sour my view of them. The key is to not look for money, sex appeal, convenience, status, other peoples views, what matters is that you find someone you would want as your best friend. Someone who may be different then you or may be very similar but who you are able to develop a special bond with. Finishing sentences, knowing when they are sad or happy, someone who you want desperately to make happy and who wants to do the same for you. Someone who would go to a baseball game even though they hate baseball just to hang with you. Someone who would go to the ballet even though its boring and homosexual. It is out there but if you settle for good enough you may never have that joy and you may find that good enough was only good enough at that time and not good enough anymore. Divorce is not the product of any one action by an offending party, instead it is the product of a long line of bad choices of which becoming married was the most obvious.
Thats not to say that two people who are married that do not have this bond are doomed. It can be cultivated. Some of the most interesting friends I have ever had were at one time enemies. If both are willing to put some elbow grease into it amazing things can happen. Like Jesus said ‘faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains.’
well thats it for now. check back in a few weeks I should have some great pictures up.
The flesh, it is weak.
I am so incredibly sick its hard to believe, at least I have been. Im feeling a bit better today. I guess thats the thing about not getting sick often, when you do get sick its like the sky is falling lol.
It amazes me how the winter is so grey, there is a DMB song I think of every winter.
winter has usually reminded me of death and sadness, spring lifting my spirits and a sign of renewed life. The landscape is so desolate and life seems to be in a state of hybernation. I have learned over the years to have some appreciation for this season if for no other reason then how it provides a greater apprciation for the summer months. Many things in life do have their ups and downs, their summer months and winter months but I guess thats how you truly learn what is important to you, the things that you hold on to that get you through those cold winter nights and provide hope of summer days.
“Absence diminishes little passions and increases great ones, as wind extinguishes candles and fans a fire.”
the truth!
Through many countless years of searching the recesses of my mind I have finally found the reason for my insanity! Oh how long i have looked for the truth, over oceans and mountains and inside the dark hollows of empty toothpaste containers. No more!!! My mother is the direct cause of this insanity, let me explain how I have come to this conclusion. When I was a child this woman decided what movies would be acceptable to view. During this impressionable age she allowed me to watch, over and over, movies such as these…
Lol, I loved that movie. No wonder Im off my rocker. =)
Thought everyone would get a laugh out of that clip, I sure did. Things are going well, at least as good as can be expected. Patience is not one of my strong suits but I guess doing what is against your nature builds strength… at least thats what the general tells me. Ive been so busy with this business and studys, time seems to fly by. Youtube is great! I like smoked guda. random stuff cuz i dont have hiking pictures. Anyway Im gonna post a 10 part series on one of my favorite mistery science theatre 3000 episodes. This first one I will include 2 since part 1 is half intro. I hope it entertains you and brightens your mood as it does me.
I suck at predictions
blah blah music…
blah blah ramblings…
Yep, I was way off on that superbowl. Ive been pissy for days and still am. Screw all you Giants fans! Yes Im a sore loser, yes I am a baby, sigh. I guess I should just give up and end it all!!…. lol
Oh well, always next year eh? Its amazing the things that can happen in a year. My life hardly resembles what it was a year ago. I guess thats a good thing, change is good.
If I could have one wish it would be a neck massage, seriously my neck feels like a roast of beef thats been cooked for like 5 days. For those that havent learned to follow the strange path my mind takes that means its as tense as a slab of overcooked meat.
This video has helped me to chill =)
Must see movie!
Just got done watching a movie called Return to Paradise with Vince Vaughn, Anne Hache and Jaqouin Phoenix. I never heard of it before tonight but it is right up there with the best Dramas Ive ever seen. Not many times do I watch a movie and feel so inspired… Anne Hache is hot by the way =P, thats not why though. Watch it!!! Anyway snow night tonight, getting ready for the superbowl. My prediction is the Pats 24 Giants 20, there you go you heard it here first. Hope your February is better then you January.
Mike has been scouring the internet tonight trying to solve the mystery of the werewolf, I told him tomorrow he should find Elvis. He showed me a few pictures of something that may resemble a hairy blob of something so perhaps there is truth to the myth after all
.
little known fact here, February was named after the Latin term februum, which means purification or more widely known as the drink preferred by Owen februumandcokekthxbye!
