Intelligent Thoughts
I’ve always pondered how the brilliant memorable leaders of past times tapped into their extraordinary gifted thoughts? Martin Luther King Jr., Albert Einstein, Abraham Lincoln, and Beethoven are just a few to consider from so many wonderful people that have given the meaning of genius a run for its definition.
These pioneers simply thought different, resisted the flow, and contributed great inspiration. Their names are of but memory now, but the wonders and dreams they opened for the centuries to come are unimaginable. Is there a secret for thinking, acting, and living within this plane of creativity? I am willing to bet it has to do a lot with the old saying, “just follow your heart”. Doing what we really wish and enjoying life is very simple, but we ourselves make it overwhelming complicated. Gadgets, games, lost time, and unproductively acts are what daily life routines have become accustomed to. Digging deeper into an abyss of no satisfaction or true happiness.
I do believe this outburst is my brain’s yearning for knowledge, school, and expanding beyond the mundane living which I too have fallen victim to. What dreams may come? Time shall only prevail…
Imagination is more important than knowledge…
Albert Einstein – US (German-born) physicist (1879 – 1955)
No School Funds…
Well… I’ve been seriously down recently. It all began with not being awarded financial aid because of making too much money now. That alone was a wrench in my life’s plans; so I figured I could find alternatives to get me back into school. I applied at my place of employment for tuition reimbursement; which up until yesterday seemed promising to get me back into classes. Unfortunately, for me of course, it too was denied. So, now, I am lost for what to even do to get college funds!
What I feel inside that is quite disturbing is that why bring someone down that is applying themselves to trying to be successful in life? My sole dream that I have in sight is completing school here at my local community college so that I can then proceed to a more broadened university.
I am not giving up or quitting… something will turn positive. Never, never, never give up! (and Smile)
Thought of the Day: SMILE

“Smile, it is contagious!“
Just like a cold, being cheery, positive , or awesome can rub off on others throughout the day. I said that simple statement to my sweetheart and life of love Erin this morning on the phone while she was at work; then to practice what I preached I too smiled as I carried out my tasks today. Oddly enough, if you pay attention you will see your smile catch onto others! Watching the frowns, blank stares, and emotionless states of people’s expressions change to a smile brings a sense of giving and awe!
In part, I can give the love of my life a thanks for giving me my positive attitude in life; when I am my lowest she is there to show me the bright side of life! Erin, this is only but one reason as to why I love you so dearly!
So, just do it… (SMILE) you may too rub someone else into a positive mood today!
