"Maybe you'll be someone who becomes so passionate about a cause
that you single-handedly change the world. But even if you aren't, if you take
action, even a small one, you will make a difference."
Mark Black
"There are two things a person should never be angry at, what they
can help, and what they cannot." Plato
"Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today."
Benjamin Franklin
"That some achieve great success, is proof to all that others can
achieve it as well." Abraham Lincoln
“Try not to become a man of success but a man of value.” Albert

encounter, within and without, the more significant and the higher in inspiration
his life will be.” Horace Bushnell
We can
believe the words of others, or we can mock them for their ignorance of what conflict
we may face. I want to stop mocking, I want to do.
I have the
desire to change things. I have the ideas, and the dreams. What I lack is the ability.
When I say ability, I do not mean skills. Skills can be learned. What I mean is
the drive. I can even say I have the passion, so much passion it hurts. The inability
to act on these dreams, these desires, physically pains me.
I can say
to you, without great certain, that I can be almost anything I want. I do not
mean to sound arrogant, but I was once an extremely smart guy, perhaps that intelligence
is still there.
Sorry for
this but…. What the fuck is wrong with me? (Stupid question I know, as we do
know what is wrong with me, ugh)
BUT
There has to
be something I can do to take that first step. To make the move towards
producing who I want to be.
And NO to
those couple of people reading this, just saying do it, or get off your ass, or
we all have problems just suck it up… you know who you are. It isn’t that easy.
If it was I would have fricken taken over the world by now.
I need some
help here people. I don’t need another famous or not so famous quote of encouragement.
I honestly need some physical assistance.
That
writing club my friend and I joined might be a bust, as she had to leave town,
and it was creepy enough that I don’t think I want to go back by my lonesome.
Would
anyone be interested in starting a writing group, or book group, or cookie
baking group (screw the baking group that sounds like a lot of cleaning) how
about a writing group where we eat cookies – AWESOME!!!! J
I think I
shall finish the show I PVR’d and head to bed, another day of struggle and
frustration awaits.
Talk to y’all
tomorrow…
