The soul has greater need of the ideal than the real for it is by the real that we exist, it is by the ideal that we live

HAPPY NEW YEAR!





Greetings! Salutations! I hope your New Year is happy!

I entered 2007 with great unceratinty. Not so this year! I've made resolutions.

Well, I made one. To have fun. I believe Sean Penn's character Conrad, said to his brother Nicholas in The Game, (one of my all time favorite movies) "Yeah, fun, you know what that is. You've seen other people have it." I believe The Game is proof of what David Fincher can do when he's got a good script. Zodiac wasn't his fault, there's just no story there.

Well I've got bad news for all you fun-hoggers. I'm in this year! I'm going to be much easier to get along with than usual, because I'm going to be having a good time. Got problems? Sorry! Got Drama? Really Sorry! Got a need to keep others from enjoying their life? Good luck getting your claws in me this year.

I'm going to laugh, explore, meet, learn, travel, and approach it all with a smile. There's too much to do, and too much to learn and too much to see not to get out there and spend every minute possible doing just that.

2007 turned out pretty good. I was happy with it. But 2008 is going to be even better. I now realize that the things I want aren't impossible. I have the skills, the tools, the credentials, and the desire to have all of them. The version I get may not be exactly the fantasy version in my head, but it'll be the best version I can manage.

I'm gonna meet me some men, go some cool places, and see some cool stuff.

Since it's a new year here's a little lovely for you to Start January with:
