New year, new beginnings, new revelations, more knowledge, more growth..
I anticipate good things, better things than the year before..

Revolutionize your own thinking!

This particular journey never seems to end, or even take a "pit stop"! Changing your way of thinking from a "de-activating" way to a "pro-activating" way is a non stop job! But when you reach "certain destinations" along the way, the new 'reveal'ations are sweet.

Who remembers, "What are you, nutzo?!"

As spoken by one of the ever coolest white dudes I knew growing up, Arthur Fonzarelli..
Don't ask why I remember that.
It came to my rememberance and I only said it after my brother asked me some silly question the other day. We often quote movie lines to each other for amusement, and he knew that this line was from something because of my emphasis on the "nutzo" part. He couldn't place it. That's because Arthur, Richie, Al(the Pat Morita one) and Pinky Tuscadero were before his time.

Heatwave in the Fall

"Feast or famine".
That seems to be the theme of things in life. When things are 'slow to come', everything feel like it takes forever to manifest. But when things 'liven up', it's a deluge, like a dam was breached or something. The weathermen here are talking about a heatwave in the next couple of days. A heatwave??!? In September, almost October?? I never look at things at face value, so maybe this wacky weather is an indication of 'other things' that are to come at some inordinate time. And not as in 'drips', but as a 'flood'...
Who knows anymore?

Is it Friday yet?

There's a timeless song by the O'Jays called, "Living For the Weekend"..
I'm playing it in my head until I find it..

"You think you know, but you have no idea.."

I'm full of questions.
All the time.
It makes me mad sometimes because it reminds me of a kid me and my childhood friends knew who asked questions ALL of the time. And they always seemed to arrive at the most inappropriate moments. Moments which, in actuality, didn't exist at the time in my 12 yr. old world, it's just something we boys used to conjure up. (Example: When trying to lie to our parents about how far we were walking to the "store", our inquisitive friend would ask loudly, "IS THERE EVEN A STORE IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD??"=inappropriate moment) Obviously, there was no "store", but in fact some girls we wanted to visit.
But I digress.
The question at hand is, do you ever think you know it all? I mean, up until 'that moment'? Or do most of us just wing it from day to day, ascertaining our 'facts' for tomorrows discoveries? And I'm not talking about the "idiot-know-it-alls" we've all come in contact with, I mean those of us who are tired of ambling through our lives because we thought we "knew it all"..

I'm going to try to pare down the amount of questions I have a day by just ignoring them. Simplify.
Then maybe those headaches will stop.

Have to look up

"Give myself explicit, positive and constructive instructions. Follow them to a "t". Never deviate from self betterment, no matter what my circumstances look like or how I feel. Never compromise. Stay prayerful, keeps me humble...."
I won't make this some 'mantra', just reinforcing a better way of thinking, that's all.
