the list.....

well, today I have nothing deep for you. This week school has pretty much drained me of all my deep, intellectual thought processes for the time being; so instead, I will give you maybe more of a surface level insight to my soul....important nonetheless. More and more each day, I am learning that I am a dreamer....an idealist....I live in this imaginary, magical world where I whole-heartedly believe that I am capable of doing anything in this world that I want. Caleb has on his profile a quote that sums up my life pretty well....it is from the movie "Amazing Grace" (amazing movie about the a man named William Wilberforce who worked for the cause of freeing blacks from slavery in the 1800's...watch it, you will love it) and it says "we are too young to know such things are impossible-so we do them anyway." I, like many, have a list of things I want to accomplish in my life time, some will stay on my list my whole life most likely, others will probably fade with time. either way, take it as you wish....
