Moving Out West

As the month of May comes to an end, I realize my move out west is approaching faster and faster. Months ago the days seemed long, but now things are getting surreal. Of course, I am going to embrace and enjoy my last summer in Milwaukee. This bitter sweet feeling is filled with curiosity, joy and great passion. Many people has asked why I am moving out west? My response is why not? I created many friendships and met a lot of great people. At the end of the day I hope I can continue these relationships with them. These people has inspired me in many ways. Although people do not want me to leave, but I hope I can give them the extra opportunity to come visit me out west and seek new things. In my mind I contemplate rather or not moving out west is for me? One of the hesitation is I may miss out on a relationship here. Another reason is financial risk and lastly I'll be the first one in my family to move far away. All of these questions are valid, but the only way to answer these...

Try something New

Have you ever seen somebody in public by themselves, and felt sad for them, or thought they were lonely? My question is why do we quickly assume these people are unhappy, sad or lonely? As a society, I have noticed it is Taboo to do things in public as an individuals and not with others. Some of these activities includes eating alone, drinking, going to the movies, and numerous other activities. In my opinion, I feel the ability to do these activities alone represents a strong independent trait. I do understand not everyone is outgoing or outspoken compared to others. At the time rather you are shy or spontaneous, I recommend you should go and try the things you like to do.  The reason why I wanted to discuss this topic because I want more people  to go out and do the things they love to do. I've talked with many people who were either married, engaged, dating and single. The common answer people told me why they don't do certain activities because they didn't want...

Dreams

Have you ever wonder where your dreams are from? Or even a better question is why we even have dreams?  Dreams are interesting because it gives us the ability or the illusion to see the future. This feature can help us analyze the things we are going through at the present moment.  I have notice there are certain clues and objects in which I came across in reality, and they some how appeared in my dreams. During these times, I wonder if I am over thinking or shall I follow what my dreams are telling me? The crazy part about dreams, is that it can take years until we get an answer. Like that phrase goes "being patient is a virtue".  The bottom line, a dream can be our ultimate fantasy film. Sometimes it ends in tragedy, often there are happy and sad moments. Most times we can wake up angry or continue to wonder why a particular dream you just had happened? I would like to hear some feedback from your experiences of dreams and to dig deeper in this topic. The mind w...

Primary Elections Wisconsin Edition

Image
G'day Mates, Today marks off the Wisconsin Primary Elections. It is an important day to go out and voice your opinions. Unfortunately, many people do not care enough to go out and exercise their freedom to vote. Some of the excuses I hear is that their vote will not count, or they do not know enough information about a particular candidate. On the contrary I do understand these concerns. The other issue is that the people who do care are confused about the new ID laws to vote. For example, a person was able to register to vote, but could not vote with the proper ID. This can be confusing and frustrating as well, but I think the way to eliminate this issue is to consider early voting. This process will eliminate any issues that may prevent them from voting. Hopefully, this solution will encourage people to vote for the elections in November. The reason why I vote because many people died and fought hard to have the freedom to vote. Throughout history, there has been numerous of b...
