Survival Fact #2: To You, It's You That's Who

You are a traveler.

There was a plan in place for you to be born with this wanderlust long before even the sun was born.

Take in every moment, every second, and every breath you take and add it to the knowledge you've acquired.

You know that today's vagabond is tomorrow's wise elder.

A wise elder that still has a child's love of the journey, and the ongoing process of dicovering who you are.

And you know that process never stops, because you have never stopped.

Never stopped exploring, asking questions, and discovering the patterns that connect us all.

If you are ever afraid, or if you ever have doubt, just remember the child you were that always had to see what was around the next corner.

And revel in the fact that they are the ones still calling the shots!

Feel better? Good! Now go grab your English-Whateverish Dictionary and order that pizza, champ! Try rolling your r's when you say pepperoni this time! And speaking of things with lots of cheese, I need to tone down this post before the Precious Moments kids start appearing wanting to sell us things. The best way to do that is to leave you all with a story about a fellow traveler like yourself. Fictitious and geek canon as he may be, there's alot you can learn in these stories about feeling out of place.

Enjoy!

I thought I fixed it the last time you mentioned it! My skills with this Blogger system are lacking apparently. I think you just have to hit the link now to subscribe, located above my "About me" area.

And Nicole, I was perusing your blogs (new & old), and I have to say that you already are pretty wise. I hope this correspondence lasts a while as I am curious to see how you and your art develop (no pun intended).I'm really glad to have met you, and I had you in mind along with other friends when I wrote this post.

Liz, you have my email address, and an open line whenever you feel the need to vent or talk again. You've made it though your fist month, so hang in there!

What is that video from? That is too funny. I can't tell if its really bad acting or good acting? I am a big fan of Faulty Towers. Now, that is something I'd like to see.

Yes, I love it a lot to have longer lasting "relationships" on the web.
Often doesn't work out, because people real Life interferes, but sometimes it does :)

Keep up the good work!!
