Fickle Human Pondering Thoughts.

I would like to start this with a quote off a letter from the master Charles Bukowski.

“My dear,
Find what you love and let it kill you. Let it drain from you your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness. Let it kill you, and let it devour your remains.
For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.
Falsely yours,
Henry Charles Bukowski”

There has not been a time when I read this and it knocked me onto a seat and forced me to start pondering what my short 21 years I have been in this earth for. Specially after pursuing a career that I feel I thoroughly enjoy and see myself doing for the next 7 years. After all I am a creature of change. There have been many times where I have stuck through long term commitments with a length of years helping me yet it seemed as if I always had an urge to move on, learn and discover many of the unexplored subjects of life, like underwater weaving off the coast of Honolulu, Hawaii, just kidding but not really. The main reason I believe that can help a person really grow and discover his or herself is travel both physically and mentally to another place and time. Helping you analyze your present living situation, the company you keep around you (who is a major factor in your every day habits), and really see where your life is going, or at least a very close idea. But I live for change, yet always keep a conscious awareness of my past. After all if everyone says you live, you learn, then you die must have a grain of knowledge hidden in it. Do not take take life for granted because everything could be gone in a finger snap, and smile to someone random everyday they mostly smile back, and you might have made their day I know it would make mine.
