First off, I would like to thank Michael Wolfe for the previous post.  When people read about alternative perspectives and the political underground, they may have no idea what it entails.  What Wolfe wrote is just a fraction of what it entails.  Today I am writing out of inspiration from something that I saw only a few moments ago.  Take a look at the video below:

Notice the person always smiling and even joking.  When they said that at eight years of age, they decided they were never getting married, never going to have a job, and never going to have a real life, I had a flash back to several years ago myself.  I realized that I was thinking the same thing.  Of course, they were for different reasons (my limbs obviously being intact), but such thoughts are damaging to one’s self no matter the physical condition.  I’m doing things that I never thought I would be doing.

For starters, I am the President of the UCM Anime Club.  I am also going to be graduating college soon; even if it takes until the Sprign 2011 semester, I will finish what I started.  I am even running for the 4th Congressional District of Missouri (U.S. Rep) alongside Jason Braun in the Libertarian Primary.  If I get past the primary, I’ll be going up against Ike Skelton, whoever wins the Republican nomination, and the Constitution Party’s candidate.

The lesson for today is to never give up.  Even if it seems hopeless, remember that something positive will always come along in the end and everything will be alright.  You just have to stick it out.  Thanks to Phillip DeFranco for sharing the video in question.
