One Man and his Actions

“A man is the sum of his actions, of what he has done, of what he can do. Nothing else.” Mahatma Gandhi

Key to Success

I ran across this quote today and it made me think a bit.  If I was to be judged right now, this very moment what would the ruling be?  What have I done in my life? What am I doing with my life?  What will I do with my life?  I can tell you something right now,  I’ve not done much.

Sure, I have done some pretty basic things and met a few interesting people along the way but I really haven’t DONE anything of worth.  I haven’t helped people in need.  When I really think about it I don’t even try and better myself.   Sure, I’m doing “fine” as it is.  I have a decent job (something to be thankful for in this economy).  I manged to gain the love of a wonderful woman (something to thank God every day for).  My family is overall in decent health, nobody has to have constant care we have our own health problems but nothing super serious.  These are all good things to have in life but I sometimes feel like something is missing.

I feel like I need to go out and do something.  My only problem is I have nothing I really want to do.  I have no real passion.  I am very content with my life as it is now.  Well, I guess that’s not entirely true.  I would like to have Kat closer to me but other than that I really don’t need much else.  If I could spend every day with my Mom, Sarah, and Kat I would be set.  There is nothing else I need or could really even want.

Anyway, I’m needing to take action.  We are all marked by our actions and  I’ve been slacking off my entire life.  This really needs to come to an end.  I must find the key to it all.

Things don’t really change much

For me, things really don’t change much.  I’ve still be doing the basics.  I go to work when scheduled and then come home and watch a movie or two or play a game.  This has been my story for most days as I suspect it is for many of you.  Sure you may replace a movie or game with a book, but it’s really the same thing.

I’ve been thinking that I really need a change.  Luckily I have a pet project that is now coming back from the grave (See TekZor.us) that I get to spend some time on.  The really good part about it?  It is something I get to do with some of my friends which gives me yet another excuse to hang out with them and call it “productive”.

The fact that I’m also without the girl I love right now probably doesn’t help my current mood.  I’ve never been one to promote a long distance relationship and I always said I wouldn’t be in one.  Now here I am in a pretty long distance relationship (over 700 miles apart).  Luckily I do get to see her on Easter Weekend!  I’m also pretty excited to meet her family.  I tried a trip once before but it failed due to uncontrollable circumstances but this trip will be made no matter what I have to do.  So, for Kat’s family, I hope you are as excited to meet me as I am to meet you.  For Kat, I love you and will see you in less than a month.

How I’ve been spending my time

It has been brought to my attention that I really don’t update this site very much which apparently makes people slightly sad. So, here you go Izulien loving kids. I have an update for you.

I’ve not really been doing too much lately. I did get to spend a day or so with my friend Charaya on her Spring Break. We went to the mall and a few other stores to get her a new camera! It was pretty fun and we ended up only buying Girl Scout cookies and chineese food when we were at the mall but it was still amusing.

After the mall we watched a Alice in Wonderland in Disney Digital 3D. The movie wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t super awesome either. Definately one of those movies that is made by the company you watch it with. If you are unlucky and don’t have a fun-loving Charaya in your life you may not like the movie very much.

Note: All the pictures above were taken with the new camera!

I also went to “The Top of the World” with Fluffy and Charaya (the last three photos above are from there). It’s basically a lookout point here in TN that lets you see a few different cities. It was pretty nifty. Poor Charaya is afraid of heights but she wanted to go anyway. She just clung to the middle of the tower and had to be pulled away when we were doing pictures :P

Outside of fun times with Charaya I’ve been playing on the 360 a bit more. Mainly with Saints Row 2 because well… it is an awesome game and my roomie purchased the game from a friend. This game is very adictive so please play at your own risk. If you haven’t ever heard of it and you like GTA games you will definately like this one. Check out both Saints Row and Saints Row 2 if you can.

That is all. Hope you enjoyed the update.
