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!!
