Breakfast at Letterman's

It is a new day. I woke up today and I went to class and went to Letterman's Diner for breakfast afterwards... When I was there they were packed and the waitress was running in circles trying to get orders and clean tables. One of my old professors came in with his son and sat at a table covered in dishes and food... So to help the waitress and them out. I cleared the table and put the dishes on the front of the counter (the diner is literally just a railway car) and gave my professor a napkin to wipe down the table. I had a positive effect on 3 people today. It's not much, but even the smallest gestures and signs of good will can bring about a major change.

It's Only The Beginning

Today I had the pleasure of helping two organic chem students w/ some of the study material I had left over from my semester of organic chem II. It isn't much, but a positive effect none the less. I also am signing up to be a tutor. I will be tutoring Gen Chem I and II and also Organic Chem I and II. I am looking forward to this. I used to be so busy that I wasn't able to do things like this, but if I can help other peers of mine to become better students. That is definitely a positive effect.

On a small note, I am still trying to think positive and be happy. It's the 2nd day that the woman that I love is in Washington state and there is a year yet to go... Sometimes I wonder what to do or I feel like I am lonely or destined to be alone. I hope that isn't the case. I guess all I can do is push forward and make every day the best I can and live as a positive force for those around me.

The Positive Effect

I am new to blogging. My cousin and a few other peers of mine said that I should try to start blogging to get my ideas out there and to possibly have a change in the world. I want to change the world, but I know as an individual, this is nearly impossible. Day in and day out I look around at the world and wonder how it could be the way it is. So many people use the term "That's the way of the world" or "That's human nature." The thing about being human is that you have the opportunity to avert human nature. You have the ability to be something different and set yourself apart. Digressing and explaining that we are just animals, just so that we can be animals shows a lack of discipline and a lack of understanding in yourself. We as opposed to other animals have the ability to control our actions which is what sets us apart from other people, but it seems that society is heading to a point in which people are giving up on what it is to be human...

As you can see I am a thinker... I think and analyze things a lot day in day out. I have seen a multitude of things that would make people cringe, laugh, or even be shocked. I have also said some of these things. This is not a bashing blog. This is a blog of ideals and purpose... Each day that goes by I want to positively effect one person that I encounter in my life. It is so easy to share the misery, but how often is it easy to share the happiness. My goal  is to effect 1 person every day. If I can effect or plant a seed in one person's head and they are better for it. That's all that matters to me.

This is my first day posting. My final point is that I will explain right now that I am not prejudice against anyone or anything except immorality. Even those who are immoral, I judge not. Judge not lest ye be judged is a position I have held in my life. Those who are immoral that I mean who seem to have strayed, I try to show them a better way. This isn't through christianity or any type of religion, but for a better well-being. To be better people and better members of society and to give unto others and they wished they would have someone give unto them. I may not have people who read this and I may never have people who read or follow me in life or on this blog, but if even 1 person reads my messages and notes and are moved by it or if buy some miracle something sparks in their mind that maybe these aren't the way things should be. If it makes 1 person a better person, then I have done all I need to do. I am gonna live my life from this day forth in trying to be a positive force in a society of anti-depressants, psychological problems, hurt , sorrow, and negativity. If I can touch your heart or someone else's... Then I know that my purpose on this earth has been complete and even if I don't know your name or know who you are... I hope you read this. I hope you find happiness and I hope you find comfort in my words and find peace in a world gone astray.
