passion.

We have all heard the phrase "Good things come to those that wait."  But in true Cicero form I decided to analyze that phrase today and decided it is completely false.  It's false for me, at least.  I took a mental inventory of some of the highlights in my life thus far and every example was filled with a passion so strong that at that time I was willing to go against all odds and accept potential hardship in an effort to make myself happy.  I have not yet achieved "good" without said passion.  So, in short, you won't find me waiting for something good to happen.  I haven't done so yet and I am not going to start now.  With all that said, I am happy in this moment on this day.  I am excited about a bright future but living each day as if it were my last.
