Media

So lets talk about something near and dear to my heart. Real media to fake media. Why does it mean so much to me one may ask? Well, first off my generation is one of the last generations with physical media as the main and only media. A look to how media is now, its all electronic and almost everything is available at a click of a button. Now don't get me wrong, I think the internet has moved us ahead millions of miles and opened the world to huge discoveries, but it has opened other things too. So in order to open this conversation, I say we look into the negatives. Its like hearing the bad news first. So why is this none physical media. Isn't so nice that we can store our music, books and ability to search for everything in one place. Sure that is nice, but its also cause others to lose track on what should be know. On what they should know just in general and not what a quick Google search can bring to light. So lets go to the first media. Books being read in physica...

2 years of silence

I have noticed I have not been writing a lot, for almost two years on this blog. I have no idea what stopped me from  putting my figures to a keyboard, but as I am typing this I am starting to remember that feeling again. I am also still trying to examine the almost two years, looking for a blame other than me being lazy. It's amazing how many things have changed though in two years. Almost all my friends are on the path to being married or are married. People have left and moved on. Jobs have changed and new challenges have been accepted. It is truly amazing. As far as me, I have changed a position at my job and have been doing some work that I can truly be proud of and love doing. My life seems to be the same, and only once in a while does it feel stagnate. I still have not moved nor found the scenery that would just lock me down and give me the feeling of never leaving. I guess that may still come. As I think about it now, I am still in my late twenties and need to venture i...

A patience view

Being patience is something that seems like an almost lost idea in the world at this time. I remember when I was a child my mom and/or dad would tell me I needed to be patience about stuff and eventually it would come with hard work. I took that to heart very often, but at times I would let the thought disappear into the wind wanting stuff to happen right away. Hit me the other day that I have been drifting further the way of being a patience person awaiting and working hard to get to those goals and getting upset because things were not happening right away. I think this came to light when I was wondering why people in movies and around me in personal life and at work are not patience. At first I blamed technology solo, but I think that's just part of the issues and will be talked about later. After I began to develop that theory, I tested it against myself. What I had found was yes, in fact I did have less patience because of technology but that was just slightly the rea...

Bar pounders

It seems like an on going thing that I am at a bar thinking about the what ifs. Why do I pounder upon these thoughts so often? And why always at a bar? I guess the reason at a bar is well there is alcohol there and there is people watching. If you combine the two you have something that I am extremely good at doing. So natural when I do those things I start thinking about other people's what ifs. Why are in this place? Is it the same reason I am here or is their life in a downward spiral of doom that the only thing to make it better is some liquor in their system. I think the later is probably an over step but still I have a feeling it does happen at times. Anyways so this night at the bar I have noticed a lot of drunk individuals some of which didn't even recognize that the are at the point of blasted, yet believe they are as normal as possible. Is that how people feel in real. In their own minds they feel that they are just like everyone else, yet in reality they are not ...

A Moment of Peace

For the past couple of days I have actually found a point of quite and peace. Something that has been hiding from me for some time now. This is truly put me at ease and a relaxing feeling.  I guess the fact is stuff seems to be a place were I am finally looking past the trivial present items and see the large picture with the light at the end. It is something that I think a lot of people need to look for more often. Yet, I know that is really a difficult thing to do. The fact is a moment of peace is worth a couple of struggles. I'll push through those struggles as much as I can instead of dreading when that day would come. To be honest the simple fact that this moment came out of no where made it that much better. The fact is today, through all the calls and events going on, I was thinking of many things to write on here. The fact is I forgot them except this one thought. To be honest I am happy where I am and I know one thing about me. I well not just stand at where I am at...

Door of time

     So i decided to go for a walk today on my day off, knowing that I needed to get back in to the root of who I am. This is something that I have been failing to do for sometime now and it has hit me that I think that is the cause to some of my issues of late. I really, really need to figure myself out. The though part of this is starting at the very beginning again. So this walk was going to let me figure out my plan of attack. Usually how I start this process is much like writing for me, find something or think something and go nuts... Right now I feel stuck again repeating the process of what am I doing. The only thing that came to mind immediately was the fountain on the east side of the road. You can hear the roar of the captured water streaming down the wall feeling freedom for such a brief moment, only to hit the rough ending conclusion of pool of calm tranquilly water. That pool of water slowly circling around the grey walls with nothing to look forward othe...

Words flowing literally and figuratively

So I have recently upgraded my mobile computing device. I once had a very nice, fairly good spec laptop that was full of power. I have now I guess downgraded to a "tablet". The thing is I love this little power house. Sure it is not as strong as the old laptop, but with 15 hours of time with out a corded charge it pushes to awe for me. I love the fact that I can go anywhere in my house and start typing away. Yes, I mean typing full size keyboard that comes off instantly. I do not game as much as I use to but instead type, surf and read news and other items which again makes this 2 pound wonder if nicer. Only some small issues here and there but all new devices have that. Now that is a sales pitch right there... Anyways, because of this little beast I have been wanting to write again and I can just pick a nice place to sit and the words flow on the go. There is something so refreshing that I can just walk around and then start typing. Yes, I could have done that with t...
