Since sometimes I feel like I just don't have the right words, I'll speak to you a little bit about me in the words of others. Those much smarter than me. Writers... we can only create so much. We merely observe what we see and translate it into what the world can understand.

"You may admire a girl's curves on the first introduction, but the second meeting shows up new angles." -Mae West.

Don't judge by what you see, no matter how obvious it might be. Not everybody wears everything on their sleeves when you first meet. The same is with me. At first you might think I'm quiet, reserved... and that might be true. I like to keep to myself, but let the words transport me somewhere else. If you see me with a notepad and a pencil, chances are I'm somewhere else.

"The mind is everything. What you think, you become." -Buddha.

One of my biggest fears is that people will lose sight of what is really important, and will base all relationships strictly on the exterior, beauty. It's already started to happen. Look at Botox sales charts, you'll see what I mean. People can't be beautiful forever. Though some people will be known for their beauty, it's a hollow victory. You were born with good genes, hurrah for you. But the mind; that takes work and speculation. Sure, some people were born that way, but I don't believe Albert Einstein was born knowing that E=mc squared.

Beauty is fleeting. Intelligence lasts forever.
