Another blog post I found from years ago..previously written 1/25/07 Ok, so…i was reading a friend’s blog today…shes an incredible writer, (I’ve probably told her that once or twice) and its not so much what she writes, but the way and how she writes it. Its the rhythm, the structure and the melodic details falling where they may. Whatever it [...]

First Impressions
Previously written 1/24/06…but in going through an old blog I found it still applies… There is a reason why first impressions, good or bad, last a lifetime…regardless of what was said, how or who said it…it in its essence is perfect. You can’t redo a first impression. You can’t call a mulligan or try it [...]
Anyone can be ordinary
Anyone can be average, mediocre, mundane or ordinary. Anyone. Anyone can walk, talk and act like the rest of us, be that “average Joe”. Anyone can talk about the weather, their work and their family. Anyone. Everyone can normal…but who cares? When you walk, talk and act like everyone else in almost every way, who [...]
At the end…
At the end of the day, we all want the same thing… that one person we want to come home to, that one person that we want to wake up to , that one person that just gets us, that accepts our faults, weaknesses and shortcomings, that makes us feel something no one else can, [...]

Quotes from Alfred Hitchcock
“Self-plagiarism is style.” “If it’s a good movie, the sound could go off and the audience would still have a perfectly clear idea of what was going on.” “In feature films the director is God; in documentary films God is the director” “There’s nothing to winning, really. That is, if you happen to be blessed [...]
Frailty
Every year, around this time or earlier I get sick. It’s humbling really, gives me the opportunity to reflect on my own life and realization of how fragile it really is. We tend to go through this maze of existence in brash overestimation that we are invincible beings. That we can do anything we’d like, [...]
Inconvenienced
So, this is going to sound weird but…I hope some day I am truly inconvenience. Someday in the future, I want a friend, loved one, even mere acquaintance to call me and need me…in the absolute worst convenient time for myself. Whether its on the way to an event or in the middle of a [...]
You’ll be different
Where were you last month? Last year? Last time you really thought about it? Things influence us, effect us all of the time. Sometimes for good, sometimes for bad but what ends up happening is…we change. We evolve slowly from the current to our future beings. It can be fun to think about, tomorrow I’ll [...]
Complacent doing
We go through life everyday with things that we have to do, get done, work on. Sometimes these things are small bits like cleaning, doing laundry or putting away items. Sometimes these things are more significant like calling a friend, helping a neighbor or just listening to someone. Then there are things that you probably [...]

One word
Congrats…you’re dying today. You have one word for people to remember you by. That’s it. One word. What would it be? It can be anything. When people think of you in the next days, months, years what would you like them to think? Say? I want to be remembered as genuine. I know it sounds [...]
Pulling
You pull different things from different people in admirable traits, characteristics, abilities, likes and dislikes. You’re constantly influenced or open to influence from the various people you meet. In living life you try to pull the best of each and use them to help shape a better you. For us, the people that want positive [...]
Realizing
Realizing I’m not perfect, keeps me humble. Realizing I have flaws, helps me understand people and theirs. Realizing my emotional and mental limits, forces me to try harder. Realizing I’m a selfish person, makes me want to be more self-sacrificing. Realizing I’m not at the pinnacle, leaves me striving for the top. Realizing who I [...]
