I just went outside and smoked a cigarette, and decided that i have nothing useful to do so i might as well update again.
its time for me to dig through my closet and break out the old soap box and preach to an empty crowd. this update does not concern any events, it's simply how i feel at this very moment.
Now i realize that i'm just a simple little speck of dust in a huge universe size, donut shaped litter box, and lets face it, we all are. virtually no single person can affect the whole big picture in any significant way, however what we can and do affect each and every single day is those around us, and i'm not just talking about people we know, or people that know us, i'm also talking about complete strangers. i also have come to terms with the fact that no thought that i have ever had nor any thought that i will ever have is truly original, but oh well, i won't tell anyone if you won't.
simple acts of kindness taking the form of a smile to a stranger, or anything you might invision, can make or break someone's day. or a simple act of selfishness can push someones day that was teetering between bearable and loathesome, decisively towards the more unpleasant of the two.
this post will end mid thought because i have been called forth.
