**Personal Philisophy Statement:** Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today...as we grow older some say we lose our inner child, the one that dreams, discovers and truly LIVES, I believe that we should remain forever young mentally. We shouldn't be focusing on who we are so much, but we need find out how we can better ourselves and become in sync with the world and the people living on it. The world always makes the assumption that the exposure of an error is identical with the discovery of truth - that the error and truth are simply opposite. They are nothing of the sort. What the world turns to, when it is cured on one error, is usually simply another error, and maybe one worse than the first one. ~H.L. Mencken

**"Who is more foolish, the child afraid of the dark or the man afraid of the light?" ~Maurice Freehill**

"Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise. Seek what they sought." ~Matsuo Basho  **"He who is not busy being born is busy dying." ~Bob Dylan** "Philosophically considered, the universe is composed of Nature and the Soul. Strictly speaking, therefore, all that is separate from us, all which Philosophy distinguishes as the NOT ME, that is, both nature and art, all other men and my own body, must be ranked under this name, NATURE." -Ralph Waldo Emerson, "Nature"

"And I was 'round when Jesus Christ Had his moment of doubt and pain Made damn sure that Pilate Washed his hands and sealed his fate" -The Rolling Stones, "Sympathy For The Devil"

"She would of been a good woman," The Misfit said, "if it had been somebody there to **shoot her** every minute of her life." -Flannery O'Connor, "A Good Man Is Hard To Find"
