Don't Dream It, Be It

Although borrowed from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", these are words for me to live by. Someone asked me, "Aren't you a little old to have such big dreams?" to which I replied, "Am I too old to be alive?"

Self Esteem

Hey, I got into my Blog! The past few times I tried to do an entry, the site was down. I have been talking to myself more, since the site has been down and I find myself practicing more and more impersonations of people while I am on long car trips by myself. I am aware of the fact that I am doing this, and although I am not truly qualified to diagnose myself either way, I do not believe I have a multiple personality disorder.

It is amazing what school has done for my self-esteem. I made a New Year's resolution in 2003 not to take crap from anyone, but I never really have kept that resolution, until recently. With that said, I am so happy I did not go to college right out of high school. I am practically addicted to the college thing. I am a firm believer in the theory that learning new things all of the time helps to create new paths in the brain, improves memory, and indeed keeps the mind sharp all around. That's enough of that.

I found a great interview with Tim Curry on the internet from NPR's program, "Fresh Air." I was bummed to learn that the man is agnostic, but I suppose faith happens at different times for different people. I have a friend like that to. I think it is certain tragic events that happen in a person's life that make him or her have faith or not have faith and that a person is agnostic, really bothers me. I suppose it's none of my business and I am not one to push my views on a person. It does not change the way I feel about my friend or Tim, for that matter. Anyway, here is the link to the interview: www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4535516.
Enjoy!
