Long Weekend
September 6th, 2006
Hey guys, how’s it going? Ya I keep on saying I’ll be blogging more often but it’s just not happening, is it? It seems like I only blog at the beginning of each month. So I’m not going to make any promises but I’ll try to blog more often but who knows if it’ll work out that way? Lately, I’ve been so busy at work, it’s been a lot of fun but very overwhelming. The new show I’m a part of, MuchAdrenaline, went to air finally and you can check it out every Monday at 7pm. That’s the new episode but it re-airs through the week. It’s a great show and it’s been a lot of fun to work on and put together; so when I’m not around and not on MOD that’s usually the reason.
But I just got back from the long weekend and I had a blast. My buddy got married and I was a part of the wedding party. It was really nice seeing old friends and hanging out with everyone. I was also asked recently what goals I have…I think they were expecting to hear “buy a house, get married, have kids.” But I didn’t think about it like that, I interpreted it in a different way…I was thinking more about what I want to do, what I want to see happen. I’ve been really thinking about what I want to do here at Much and what more could I be doing. This is the answer I gave my friend, “I’d love to impact society in a huge way, I’d love to really influence kids, teens, adults, people in general in a positive way, I’d love to help make this world a better place, where people are nice to each other, where we don’t pollute, where we don’t need drugs to be happy or high, where men don’t beat their wives, where babies aren’t born without a dad or grow up without a mom, where people don’t solve problems with knives and guns, where people don’t have to live their lives scared to be themselves or be scared of what people think, help build a world that is full of understanding and love and trust, and a place where no one will make fun of people and belittle them, where people don’t go home and cry themselves to sleep, a world where people don’t have to be scared to go to bed and have to wake up to another day in fear.” It was basically along those lines…
The reason I’m telling you guys this, is just so you have a little insight into what I’m thinking about. And I know that a lot of that seems impossible and will be something I can’t change or something that will require a lot of people to even influence change. And who am I to think I can try and bring about change? Well I’m just one person, but you’re just one person and so is your friend, or your teacher, or your boss, or the person you pass on the street. You walk past people every day in the halls of your schools, on the streets of your city, in shopping malls and where you work. Think about how fast a cold spreads. One person can actually bring about a lot of change, you just have to get infected. Let it be known, and it will spread.
Ya I might of said that it seems impossible but in the bible it says in Matthew 19:26 that “with man this may be impossible but with God all things are possible.” Now I’m not trying to preach or push my beliefs on other people I’m just giving you a little more insight to why I am, who I am and letting you know where I get a lot of my inspiration. The reason why I’m telling you this is because I still believe that we can make a difference, we can bring about change, I want to stop polluting and fighting and clean up our world even if it means cleaning up our lives. I’m not about to give up on us. I’m sorry if this has been a heavy blog but sometimes I get so down on myself because I feel like I can be doing more. And I just thought that maybe by telling you guys and letting you all in on what my “goals” are and what I care about then maybe someone will share these feelings and maybe that can help. Anyway, I’m done now, my last thoughts are…let’s get infected…in a good way haha. Later guys!!

I believe that our society needs more warm hearted, passionate people like your self to make this world a better place to live,and its just so great to see how much you want to help and influence others. Don’t laugh but hearing you talk like that just makes me even more happier that I voted for you. I sincerley hope that you will keep pn making a difference, and keep using that voice of yours because I can promise you , that you will definitley go along way.
Take care,

It’s really encouraging to hear other people with lots of motivation; especially living in a huge city like Toronto it’s often difficult to believe that individuality gets us anywhere. Here survival seems to depend upon trends, knowing what to be scared of and “safe” thinking.
It’s also incredibly easy to get sucked into a routine where we can shut out the rest of the world and everyone else’s feelings/well being, so again, ‘m glad you have your heart in the right place.
Haha and don’t worry about writing an indepth blog; typically things that take time to write are written with a worthwhile thought in mind =)

Hey man, I really like your new show Much Adrenaline it’s an awesome show that made m even want to try some of the sports that the people on the show where doing. I tried that Skate Boarding thing that the guys in Kitchener did but I couldn’t do it ha. Well anyways I think that the goals that you want to do are wickked because it’s good to know that there’s someone out there who cares, and I hope that you succeed with that and that people listen to what you have to say. Well i’m done. Later

Tim, I’m soo happy to see you branching out to other shows than Much On Demand. I’m so happy you’re hosting Much adrenaline. =D
I can see even clearer now that your purpose as a vj is not for the fame or the money. Its for the chance to influence the lives of our generation.
Keep on doing a fantastic job. =)

Tim,
I always knew there was a light about you and that you were meant to share it… that is how I knew you would be where you are now, doing what you are doing. Thank you for being open and sharing your innermost heart with us… it is not preaching in any way to quote an idea or thought that clearly motivates you.
There are many out there like you, ready to be an instrument for change… and sometimes it just takes the call, the reminder, to create the momementum among us; to wake us up to realize our own empowerment in the world we do shape, as impossible as that may seem to some. It is simply our self doubt and lack of belief in ourselves that holds us back from making the difference we so long for in our hearts… it is the ego, that selfishly wants everything but feeling unworthy to allow receiving it… so doing must come from selfless love, unattached to the outcome, that will shift our lives into being whole and complete with each other. We need those who are aware to speak out and trigger these deep memories we hold…
I appreciate what you are bringing of yourself to Much and am happy that increasing awareness of these important issues will continue, despite the changing faces we see each day.
Sincerely,
Leanne
