Best Approach To Possible Happenings 10.09.09
Hope for the best. Expect the worst.
That’s what I do. So much better than expecting things to work out in the best way when there’s always a chance that they won’t. It doesn’t give you as much of a let down if things fall through, yet sets you up for a nice little surprise if [...]

Response Suspense 10.02.09
I hate sending someone a message, someone you don’t really know but would really like to know, and not getting a response in a decent time-frame. I think it’s just really seeing acknowledgment that what I said was taken correctly. I’m always second guessing myself, the wording of things I write, wondering if I perhaps [...]

Integrity 08.31.09
Some people have it; some people lack it. Out of the numerous qualities and values defining a person’s character, integrity is one of the more important ones to me. A person’s word is not taken for much nowadays, and it really is a shame because if you take away all of the material items, your [...]

Holden Coat of Arms 08.17.09
The only thing that I’ve found so far is that the birds appear to be called ‘eagle displayed’. I’ve not made it to what the colors, shape of the shield, birds, number of birds, helmet, etc. mean yet, but will update this post as I discover.
If you happen to stumble across this post and know [...]

Umm Wow, Thanks Man 08.01.09
Yesterday I was asked by one of my friends through text message if my brother and I wanted to go with them and some other friends to Rod Run this September and split the cost of a cabin with them 4 ways for the 4 groups that would be going. Doing the quick math, the [...]

Sad But True 06.11.09
I’ve thought about this before, even before running across this image, how we get so caught up in everyday life that we lose contact with those who we used to be in touch with almost everyday. I’m just as guilty as others, even though our circumstances may be completely different. Like a few of my [...]

Brother’s Keeper 06.09.09
Seeing how siblings usually grow up and grow apart, my brothers and I sort of have this pact that we won’t end up like most families do. Both of my parents have an almost nonexistent relationship with one of their siblings, and as unfortunate as that is, it lies on the other side. The reason [...]

Sleepy Arms 05.12.09
I think it’s a pretty good sign that you need a new matress or a different sleeping arrangement/position when you get better rest and sleep better altogether on a hotel bed. We usually stay at Choice Hotels when we’re out of town because they usually have really nice rooms and have a hot breakfast in [...]

Impression I Leave 04.08.09
Today I was given a glimpse of the impression that I leave as a person through my actions and dialog. I do things daily, whether it’s just being friendly or maybe giving them a hand or something as little as holding the door. Not because I want to influence the impression I leave, but just [...]

All-Nighter And Much Needed Sleep 03.26.09
I’ve said a few times before that I “feel like I haven’t slept at all,” but after doing my first all-nighter and operating for about 36 hours, most of which was working, with absolutely no sleep at all, I know exactly what that expression is supposed to feel like.
Tuesday I worked my regular 8:30-5:00, and [...]

Because it´s only when you’re tested that you truly discover who you are. And it’s only when you’re tested that you discover who you can be. The person that you want to be does exist, somewhere in the other side of hard work and faith, and belief and beyond the heartache and fear of what life has.
