On Being Weird

I enjoy quotes; I am a quote collector. Facebook provides a lot of interesting quotes in late, so I borrowed this one that George Takei of the Star Trek series. Fortunately, I met my weird counterpart nearly twenty years ago. We call it nerd love. All nerdiness and weirdness aside, it's an off- the -vine concept to embrace who you are. I am weird. I like to prefer the term "eccentric", but weird will work. I think the world needs a little more weird, but in the best weirdly worldly way. :)

Start Something that Matters

The death of Steve Jobs this week and his inspirational commencement speech from 2005 inspired me to check out this book at the library: Start Something that Matters by Blake Mycoskie. So far, I've only glossed the cover, but it looks like a meaningful tome by a visionary named Blake MyCoskie. I am hoping this blog will inspire the 40 and better crowd. (I know, need to post more.) I am hoping to do something more with writing to help others. Anyhow, hopefully this book will help achieve my dreams and life purpose. I'm still figuring it out.
