Well....2010 is over, and like every other year, it has gone by too quickly. Many changes have taken place, as they should and always will do. My New Year's was good...The original plan was to rent a car and drive to the french side of the Island and party it up...but factoring cost, gas, the traffic that would definitely be encountered, and the lack of finding a designated driver on New Years Eve (lol), we decided to just stay on the boardwalk...and just walk up and down, drinking the night away...and thats what we did...free drinks, Champagne, fireworks by the beach, more drinking, dancing, very good time indeed.
Yesterday...rather day before yesterday, was a hell of a day..not in a good way... but the headache is over, mostly.
My favorite author, rather, essayist, is Ralph Waldo Emerson....has been my favorite for many years.
Ralph Waldo Emerson on CHARACTER:
"This is a natural power, like light and heat, and all nature cooperates with it. The reason why we feel one man's presence and do not feel another's is as simple as gravity. Truth is the summit of being; justice is the application of it to affairs."
not sure what the quote means but it is something for me to think about
