Circumstance and the Domino Effect
Have you ever wondered how we became the people we are today? Have you ever thought about why you think the way you think? Most people do not, or they do but in only the most generic sense. Imagine the universe as a giant domino setup, where there are millions if not infinite possibilities of […]

Greetings!
“Hey, you!” “Hi,” I greeted her back. She smiled and continued walking down the hill with her children. I smiled and made my way up the hill to go to class. Here we could observe two adult humans in their natural habitat, concrete sidewalks between brick buildings featuring scattered and almost inexistent plant material. She […]

End of a Chain
Enjoy life. Why? To understand the complexity of life, one must understand the beginning. In this beginning, should it actually exist, we are the end in a chain of a very long list of events. How many planets have tried to develop and never were able to support the right mix of hydrogen and nitrogen […]

Daily Dose of Politics
I’m sitting in a 16ft box truck doing a promotion for Pepsi. I sit listening to NPR, usually my favorite station to listen to for news information. I’ve been extremely aggravated by the lack of media attention to lesser known candidates. For me specifically there is Ron Paul, but there are others like him who […]

What’s the Point?
Recently following a conversation with my friend, Edward, we discussed the greater points of history, how it matters, doesn’t matter, or is completely irrelevant. His stance if I understood him correctly is primarily that history itself is irrelevant, thereby life is irrelevant, and finally that nothing we do is relevant or matters at all. We […]
