  If You Knew You Couldn’t Lose- What Would You Do?      Seriously, think about it. If you knew you couldn’t lose- what would you do?      Would you run to the casino and gamble away until you couldn’t carry any more chips? Would you pick up a sport you loved as a child, and become the greatest to ever play? Or would you simply approach that girl, you’ve been obsessed with for years, and finally make her your wife?      The question is thought-provoking, to say the least. The idea of being able to accomplish all that you wish, is something greater than winning the lottery. A feeling of invincibility, giving you the confidence to move in a way you’ve never experienced before.      Yet here we stand, lost in thought, afraid to make a mistake. Here we sit, waiting for life to happen to us, instead of going on and making it. Here we lie, day-dreaming about a million outcomes which will never show their face.    ...

  Progress.      Progress is never a straight line. No matter how much we wish it to be. Progress is not a walk in the park, leading towards so insane goal we have drawn out before us. It is not the desire to embark upon an incline path, leading towards a finish line.      Progress is a much more complex subject. It is a spiralling staircase, slowly but surely leading us towards whatever it is we want. We constantly walk these stairs, whether we know it or not. The never-ending ladder of chaos, which we must continue to climb in order to grow. Progress is something which cannot be simply drawn out on a paper, and executed without a second thought.      One of the more challenging aspects of progress is the highs and lows which come with it. The mountains we climb, only to fall back into the valleys. The great success which comes with accomplishing something meaningful- followed by the horrid lows after we realize there is still so much m...

  New Horizons.      After spending much of my time planning out my next move, I’ve come to realize that action is the only step necessary.        Most people spend their lives, trying to think they way into success. They spend days, weeks, months, years, sitting around and trying to map out their entire lives ahead of them. And what happens? Everything they have planned goes straight to hell. There’s an age old saying which says, man makes plans, and God laughs.      Action is the remedy to most of our problems in life. The sitting around and waiting is the source of most suffering. Waiting for something to come, which never does, can kill a man and his spirit. The reality is, success only belongs to those who are willing to reach out and take it. Those who are no longer afraid to sit back and wait for all the chips to fall into their lap. Those who are willing to risk it all, in order to achieve something most cannot even fathom. ...

  The battle continues.      Every single day, we draw closer to war. Every single day, we draw within a couple steps of firing the first shot. And yet, every single day, we the people continue to sit asleep at the wheel.      Things are in motion which cannot be undone. We are moving at light speed towards an inevitable truth. Once we reach that truth, I pray we are all ready for the price required to achieve it. The cost of freedom is never free. We the people, must be prepared to rise against the forces of evil, which look to defeat us and enslave our kind.      War is a very funny thing. It is the resulting conflict between a few versus the many. The only tactic the few have, which the many do not, is the art of deception. The art of lies and manipulation of the truth, so that other players rise and defend them. The literal act of pulling strings on a puppet, raising those who cannot think for themselves, to come rushing to their aid...

  Last night, I was haunted by your ghost.      I was visited by an old connaisance, and this morning when I woke up, all i could think of is her.        Funny how your brain works, eh? Haven’t seen or spoken to said individual for years now, yet after one dream- boom! Madly in love. Talk about insanity. I once read that when you dream of somebody else, they’re also dreaming of you. In all reality, I doubt that to be true. Perhaps, there is a version of them, somewhere out there, who shares your love in their subconsciousness. Perhaps, there is a connection, in another world. But in this realm, in this reality? I don’t think that to be true.        I find myself wondering how my life and relationships would be, if I were to ever pursue them according to my hearts desires. I often wonder, how things would be, if I was willing to open up, and give them a chance. Would I be happily in love? Would I have ran off, into the sunset, c...
