I Will Not Die

One of the coolest things in the world today is being able to share your dreams, goals and eventual adventures with the Internet -

Meet Dereck a guy that has decided to pack his bags and tour around the southeast this winter by bike, gather sponsors for the trip and donate money to charity. This he calls C.U.B.E.

Like most goal seekers (like me) he has had to modify his goal slightly to make this work.

He also needs your help to make this happen.

Please view his website and if you feel like I do, please give consideration.

Breathe. Live. Now!

Is there a time when you are so content with your life that you stop challenging yourself?

I hope there is never a time in my life that this question gets a yes answer.

Of course you want to stop and smell the roses. You want to take in the beauty around you and develop a peace within yourself that makes you content with life at the moment. Never do you want to relax so much that you dwell on previous accomplishments that you have no ambition to plant new seeds to smell the roses in the next spring.

My life has been a series of events that have led me from one path to another. Each new adventure has it’s own story and amazing moments that define who I am today. Without the lost loves, broken hearts, and curiously incredible mistakes. I would never had the ability to experience the beautiful sunsets,  wonderful people, and <insert special secret moment here>

I believe, for the most part, that I strive for happiness everyday. Realistically actually achieving happiness every single day is improbable. Life should have it’s up and downs. Some of the downs just suck. There is nothing you can do about it.

I am going to end this here with this note: If you cannot accomplish nothing else, breath. live. Now. and repeat as often as possible.
