The more I experience and the more I see, the more I watch Zeitgeist, the more I am alert, the more I simply just open my mind . . . the more I realize that college is the inverse think-tank. They train you to jump through the hoops of bureaucracy, pointless and staggering amounts of self-confused red tape to prepare you for the rest of your life in a politics-based, greed-powered world. Conformity and non-confrontation is what’s taught, complacency exemplified, belly-up and mind-numbed preferred. Conspiracy! Conspiracy!

I was raised by my parents to do the right thing, to not quit, to love, to dream. I raised myself to love, to dream, to fight back, to protect. I will fulfill my name and what I understand as my meaning.

The good hands must take hold of the bad souls—careful not to let the demon touch them.

Commitment is not so much the allotting of time or resources, but the making room for, welcoming, and pursuit of love–from the first long stem to the room of standing wreaths.
