Have you ever noticed how much credit we give to good writers. You could call them storytellers and you could call them manipulators. Both words fit, and still they are more... Most easily attribute wisdom to people because of how they present information, analyzing the presentation and ignoring the content. People have always been susceptible to grandiose speeches, from Alexander the Great, to Winston Churchill and Adolph Hitler. people are so driven by their emotions that if you can tap into them you can change people's beliefs. The problem is they will continue to change like the direction of the wind, easily believing in the next New Truth just as easily as the Last. Not everyone, just the ones who are over ruled by emotion. A fine line exists between people who are guided by their emotions and people who simply let the emotions sweep over them overruling sense. Lastly their are the people who lack emotion, if people you can call them. And still it seems that a person devoid

A thousand dollar Mistake. I'm not the kind of person who has twenty dollars to blow or even spend frivolously. So kissing a grand good bye is not even something I thought I would have an opportunity to experience. Everyone says don't mix business with pleasure, but I find that most of them are hypocrites. $1,000's later I am here to tell you that just because you are a hypocrite doesn't make you wrong. I bought A car from the best of friends and do you know what I have? I have a promise to fix it, a car that runs when it feels like it with no way to predict when that will be, and a best of friend that no longer returns my phone calls. I never thought I had the words sucker tattooed on my forehead. I never liked tattoos. (she has a tinkerbell tattoo, do you think there is a connection?) I never figured that I could afford to purchase a thousand dollar lesson, but now I just have to say: Lesson learned! I think I shall become a hypocrite, do you think there is a job open
I had always planed to go to college. I'm two years out of high school and still not in college. It doesn't bother me though, which is good since it seems to bother everyone else. It's funny, really, I can't see putting myself in that much debt not knowing what I want to do for the rest of my life. It's an expensive venture and not one I plan to fail at. I have a high school teacher who understands me. I had gone back to see him and I was talking to him about what was going on in my life. He told me that the peace I had in my life at the time was worth more than being where everyone felt I should be. He is also the one who has had more faith in me then most. It's funny really because although I do have many interests I have always wanted to attend one school. I have a lot of hang ups about applying there and it has taken me a very long time to decide I would go for it. It's funny how one persons belief in another can have such a profound effect on someone. I
