Living Life

I just heard a great saying here at my convention.

"You make a living by what you get, you make a life by what you give."

I love it here, and I will be posting a bunch of short posts as I here them this weekend.

If you know what the title of this post means, please let me know. I want to know how obscure it really is.

I know I missed yesterday. to quote a very funny, albeit a somewhat coarse comedian, Peanut, "(with a hoarse voice) Sooorrry! I'm headed out of town today, and I've been getting ready.

I expect to have a great time this week in OKC, and have many new ways of looking at life. I will be busy all this week, so if I don't make a post, you will know why. I'm having a great time learning.

See you all later, and don't forget to tip your waitress,

Wake up and Dream

We've all have had them, dreams about what the future holds and where we fit in.

For some it's paying the bills with that dream job, for others it's the fun toys in the garage. Whatever your dreams are, they can come true.

I for one have had some dreams of travel. Thank you Rick Steve and Rudy Maxa. If you don't know who those two are, they are hosts for some travel shows that I used to watch when I couldn't sleep at night. Now that I literally can't sleep because I'm at work, I can't watch the shows either. They would travel through Europe and more showing good places to go to learn about the culture of a country and also great hidden places to eat the local cuisine.

One of the places I want to go to is Greece. I've always been fascinated by the Greek Mythology. Mostly because of the great heroes and the quests that they had to go through to get what they want. Come to think of it, we all must do that. When there is something that we want bad enough, we'd go through Hades and back to get it.

I know from experience that I respect and take care of something more when I work hard for it than if it's just given to me. I definitely know that my wife will be worth the hard work to find her and 'convince' :-P her to marry me. Not only my family, but the life I want to have with them. I want to be able to be there for them when they need me there. I don't want to be stuck at a job when I can be where I'm loved and where it matters the most.

So whatever your dreams are, I hope you get and take care of them. They are the important things in life and should not be settled for. Live up to the desires of your heart and go get 'em!
