I . . . Respect our past . . . Laugh at our present . . . and Weep for our future. . .
on a journey to getting it right . . .
its 31 December 2009, 10:49pm in Dubai. i am setting up this blog (yet again) to try and start the new year 2010 right. . . .it is after all a blue moon tonight, it gives a sense of anything is possible, so tonight again i continue the journey towards finding myself, the man i am, the man i want to be and perhaps reconciling the two and liking the outcome. . . i have too long looked for meaning and fulfillment from outside of myself to satisfy me and have come to the conclusion that i need to focus internally on myself, taking care of myself physically, emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually. i realize that, other than the people i choose to surround myself with, there is nothing out there that will help me anymore than i can help myself (apart from the wisdom of friends and scholars) i turn thirty five this year (more that a third of my life. . .optimistically) and i would like to think by then i would be on the path towards finding many of the answers that i crave (to finding true happiness). i'm going to keep this journal regulary (i want to say daily but i know myself yet once again i will keep trying) and document my journey, helping me express myself, explore my thoughts, giving me direction and keeping focused and accountable to myself. i will share my thoughts, and reflect on the past, document the present and ponder the future.
