Before all this, I have to say that I am committed to truth in my life. I am committed to the good, the bad, and letting myself take it as it for real - so if you feel bothered by someone really speaking completely as who they are, where they are, and just being real - I'd suggest reading something else. I have a lot to offer the world - but no one ( Read more... )

It's tough to tell if I'm a nice guy or an asshole at times.

I remember part of Kill Bill part 2 where Bill is talking about superheroes and how of all the superheroes Superman was different. Of all the superheroes, they would become Batman, Spiderman, Iron Man and woke up every morning as whatever they started as. Superman was different because he ( Read more... )

I don't know, but I'm confused about the messages people want to spread these days. We hear about the gaps between men and women in their pay at work, how women feel acosted by men saying "smile" or "you're beautiful" while these same women often listen to Jay Z and other rappers that have incredibly misogynistic lyrics.

As I've went through life I've had a pretty keen sense of people. My job relies on my sense of reading people and getting the best results out of my interactions. I do know I have a weakness though.

True self. I can see what people really are passionate about being or doing in life quite quickly or their true selves. Why is this a weakness? Simply ( Read more... )

It's almost a year since my father passed away. I remember a lot about him. The last few years of his life he was almost a stranger to me. I saw about 5 or years before I saw him again in his death bed. When he passed away I had a lot of different feelings.

Most puzzling to me is that he knew he was maybe headed that direction for about a year or so ( Read more... )
