The struggle of one can become the savior of many… Read, write, and share!!!


"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 Einstein

“Every artist was first an amateur.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

Horace Bushnell 
“The more difficulties one has to 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…
