Ladies and gentlemen, I continue my semi long-lost tradition of writing one final blog before university classes start. Welcome! As I’m somewhat introspective, I’ve always taken the opportunity to put into words the way I feel prior to embarking on these ten weeks of schoolwork, late night studying, and the ever-eternal cram sessions prior to […]
There’s a growing fear in me that my ability to motivate others is not nearly strong enough to motivate the most difficult person to motivate; myself. It’s very easy to encourage others to spring forward with action. What I fear most is that my life will be nothing more than a propeller of others, with […]
“The trouble is that, as modern people, we have too much to live with and too little to live for.” Enough. Too many quotes are being displayed without anything to back them up. There’s nothing but a bunch of wannabe entrepreneurs, religious zealots, political activists, and unique teenagers who do little more than serve in […]

“When one ceases from conflict, whether because he has won, because he has lost, or because he cares no more for the game, the virtue passes out of him.” I’ve been doing a bit of thinking about the idea of having a clear vision of one’s identity and I have come to the conclusion that […]
So kill the evil desire lurking in your members: sexual vice, impurity, sensual appetites, unholy desires, and all greed and covetousness, for that is idolatry. Kill. Put to death. Extinguish. Eliminate. Be rid of. Repent. Turn away. Return no more. Mortify. Purge. These are not friendly words. In fact, these are things you would never […]
“It’s not what we eat but what we digest that makes us strong; not what we gain but what we save that makes us rich; not what we read but what we remember that makes us learned; and not what we profess but what we practice that gives us integrity.” It’s been an interesting period […]
