67.Want

Hello again, today is Wednesday, November 21, 2012. I don't know what I want. The question this mostly applies to is the question of career path. I don't know if I want to be a normal worker that isn't too poor, and isn't that rich, but just in the middle class, working with the occasional outing. That type of life seems dull and dreary to me. Like the stereotypical description of a dead end desk job. But on the other hand I'm not sure if given the choice I'd want to be a very happy pauper, or an incredibly dreary aristocrat. The two ends of the spectrum define the starving artist and the compulsive worker. I usually think a compulsive worker has to compensate for thier lack of happiness and a starving artist has true happiness. But on the other hand the financial benefits are the opposite. For aome reason I view a starving artist as a true intentioned person that values quality over quantity. So I probably would want to be a starving artist, because just one time of getting out there and making a name for youself, and the starving artist gets hungry. And when a starving artist gets hungry, they feast like a king.

As always,

Keep calm, and the truth needs no compensation.

I think a lot about many things, but don't like to think about one thing too much; I'm kind of a rambling man.

Suck It And See

So I got to thinking what life should be. Should I suck it and see. As my grandad would say. Should I live for every day. Should I be sensible. The one that is reliable. Should I break the mould.

Love Is...

Some say love is all around us. Some say it's hard to find. Some say love lasts forever. And that it never dies. But love can be painful. It can cause a broken heart. Some fear to release it.
