been there, done that

This week was spent more or less in a hole. I've been curious about those who stumble on their big break: Bourdain, Zimern and Brown on the Travel Channel are a few, and the countless others that include just about any pen-wielding hand that has ever created a real life story out of a real life experience that earned real life money. People, like those mentioned above, who live, breathe, and literally eat their passion, it's these people who inspire me.

I've written about my travel experiences, I've mentioned that I like writing an awful lot, I've mentioned to friends that living in these here United States doesn't seem like an option for me. My grandmother, when the conniption subsides, I'm sure will come around. I think a few post cards to a few key people in a few key countries are in order... contacts you know are the only way to make it in this world. And it's true what they say, you never can tell what's around the next bend. Who knows? Maybe I'll even start a business based on my own passion!

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.

I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love.
