"Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value."
Albert Einstein
Success is branded as people who are successful want to see others succeed while unsuccessful
people want to see others fall.
A man of success is only successful if his beginning values are unchanged when he becomes successful. Hence, remembering where you come from.
Albert Einstein is a man so widely recognized and known he almost needs no introduction. The German born physicist, who redefined the theories of relatively and time and gravity, is infamous for his work on the atomic bomb and spatial and time theories. Born to Jewish parents in olden Germany, he had an interesting life. I will write an article about him later on as he is one of my inspirations and early influence on my quest for knowledge.

Quotation of the Week, 1
"Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the
impossible."-
Francis of Assisi
The impossible is always achievable. There is no such thing as something impossible. Something that is generally seen as impossible is generally just incredibly difficult and may seem overwhelming. Look at it from a simple eye and deal with it one thing at a time and what once seemed impossible has now become possible.
Saint Francis of Assisi was an Italian Catholic Friar who was born as Giovanni di Pietro di
Bernardone in 1181 A.D. He died at the age of 44 in 1226 A.D. He had a couple notable accomplishments in his life, as he founded the men’s Order of Friars Minor, the women’s Order of St. Clare, and the Third Order of Saint Francis for men and women. He helped to reorganize the Franciscan Order. He was dedicated to imitating the life and work of Jesus Christ. He was a great read. I highly recommend reading about him as a life figure. For anyone wanting to be volunteer or for someone who wants to do good deeds, even if you are not religious, he is an inspiration.

Obligatory Introductory first post
I will start off by saying that this blog will be pretty simple, but it will also be quite impeccably random with its choice of topics. It will be filled with a variety of quotes from some of my favorite figures of history. I will sometimes provide some personal commentary about these quotes. I will also give a simple introduction or back story to the person who wrote the quote. Other times, I will just post them and leave them be. This blog is mostly going to encompass some editorials about some strange and weird subjects that I find interesting. I will try to, sometimes, keep it a little normal for a bit, but it will not always be the case. My topics will encompass several different types of posts; something that is strange, an editorial about something weird, a topic I am passionate about, and something a bit more average or normal. Among these topics I will be writing about them in a variety of ways. Some will be opinionated (personal thoughts). Some of my posts will simply be analytical (based on logic). Others will just be a factual or journalist like article. I will deal with subjects of language and other languages, philosophy, psychology, counseling, music, movies, books, life and leisure, sex, drugs and rock and roll, along with anything else that might come my way. I might go into some personal topics and subjects or things affecting my life. I will also write about relationships and friendships, it sounds quite cheesy thinking about it but it is something that affects everyone and maybe my personal experience with life will correlate with another person’s experience. I will write each entry to be from a couple hundred to a couple thousand words. I will keep them short and sweet and will attempt to not be too elaborate with my language and vocabulary, so as to not dissuade the reading of my articles (So I don't scare you away). I am a jack of all trades. I am a musician; guitarist, pianist, drummer, trumpeter, keyboardist, bassist, composer, music arranger, hobbyist audio engineer, Psychology and Criminal Justice Dual Major, and I am also doing a Pre-Med scholastic career. I will be doing an EMT-advanced course in December. Over this summer I am going to be hospital volunteering and Red Cross volunteering. I am also an independent filmmaker and actor currently working on a movie as the producer, acting director, assistant director, script editor, composer, musician, and arranger, assistant casting director. I keep myself busy with as much as I can. I am going to start working with children with autism as an assistant behavioral therapist. I am also a tutor for English. I am fluent in English and Spanish, I can read Latin, and I am learning German and Japanese, over the next two years I hope to learn Mandarin, Japanese, and German. I am also writing a couple of books and am an artist with a proficiency in sketching. I am involved in my university’s student government and have dealt with many political agendas within these past couple of months and will continue to do so.
I hope all of you enjoy my writing and reading my blogs. Please feel free to comment when you
feel like it.
