Nothing
Nothing was accomplished today. Nothing. Absolutely Nothing. Today is perfect. What a great day of doing nothing. Caught up on movies. Walked outside. Bought some tickets. This was all done on my timing. Nothing needed to be done. Nothing. I am happy. Well, it is only 8p.m. Who knows what tonight might bring? For me, nothing if I keep it this way. So I have been looking for videos on youtube. Not sure what I am looking for. Something to make me laugh, something to make me smile, something to make me think. Not quite sure but what I did come across is what I think to be a great music video.

Riddles
We speak in riddles, rhymes, and lies. Stuck between reality and what we like to think is our own reality. This is what we have known to become truth. I was watching the movie, "V for Vendetta" the other day and I realized how deep that movie is. It is such a great movie. What do we find to be truth? What is truth? Have we became so programmed in our thoughts that in all actuality what we know is nothing at all? Hmmm....Well, that is a little to deep for me. But, anyways, I digress. The movie really hits a lot of interesting topics. Love, hate, politics, religion, and so on.
The image I choose is what I thought to be one of the most influential and important scenes of the movie. This is that point when you let go of everything you thought to be truth. It is a time to re-program our own thoughts and identities and choose for ourselves. I am who I am because of you.

Chance
So I am a thinker. I love music, poetry, late night conversations, and art because it forces me to think. It offers me a different insight than what I would have normally thought of. Lately, I have been thinking about chance. Its chance that has got me to where I am. I have always skimmed the top in everything I do and it's due to chance. If I have a bill that is coming close, its chance that allowed me to have a good day at serving or I might get money from something I was never planning on getting. When I think about school, its chance that brought me to Augsburg. Its chances in my life that has caused me to be where I am. I am not saying that there hasn't been some thought on my part but a lot of it is because of chance. I am sick of chance. I am sick of not expressing my thoughts because of fear. I am tired of waiting for something "great" to happen.
But where do I start? Chance is all I have.
