Recollections.

Hello. Im Ronnie. Nice to meet you.

you think you know, but you have no idea; shit I have no idea.

aspiring for the future as well as learning to live for the present.
music, food, friends, family fuel my determination.
laughter and chilling are an essential part of my diet.
spontaneous occurrences are better than planned occasions.
artistically expressed; words are not exactly my specialty.
values sincerity.
perspectives change, as does mine; open minded.
seeking adventure; stepping away from the familiar into the unknown.
gaining wisdom through experience.
strongly believes happiness can be found in the simplest things; people tend to look for happiness in all the wrong places.
views life at different perspectives; there is more than meets the eye.
acknowledges that life is not constant but rather life is in constant motion.


food for thought:
search and question to find understanding. But it is not necessarily coming to an understanding that is most significant, rather it is the constant pursuit for understanding that makes life interesting. life is not intended to be easy. life is intended to be fun, vivid, and vibrant; live and experience. feel pain to feel love. be lost to discover. There is no such thing as perfection, perfection does not exist, for there is always room for growth. and in order to grow one must struggle, experience, and discover; life is not handed but is ultimately constructed by it's beholder. therefore, construct wisely. carpe diem.

Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.

2010 Resolutions:
+ Take a snapshot everyday
+ No more sweets
+ Stick to my philosophies
+ Find out what matters to me the most.
+ Rediscovering my passions
+ Better myself as a person/ friend/ son.
+ Discover something new about myself
+ Look forward.
+ Go to the gym on a consistent basis, no bitchassness
+ "just do it."
+ happiness is a choice, lets make some good choices then.

humanity

…I understand our humanly imperfections and our desire to obtain happiness leads us to our struggle. Even as successful _____ was before, he showed me how no one can be prepared for what the future holds. To be human, perfection in character does not exist. Although we strive towards perfection and happiness, we fail to completely achieve either of these. We are constantly on the pursuit. But this is not a bad thing, it is in our nature to struggle and fail. I learned that struggle provides a place for growth. It brings us to our lowest in order for us to be potentially something better. But I think this is where most of us struggle, realizing that we must make change in order to gain what we desire. Again, we are not perfect. But we can attempt to be and that’s the beauty in humanity. It is struggle that brings out the worst and the best in us. The way we respond to it is what defines us as human beings and individuals.  As well, it is what brings us together creating this human connection. Listening to _______ story, I reflected on my own struggles and how they have deeply crafted the person I am today. It is amazing how you can relate your life story to another’s, grasping their emotions and relating it to yours. Struggle makes us feel and live and this is what allows us to emphasize with others. This is what it means to be human. We struggle through our imperfections on our pursuit of happiness. This is what connects us together.
