"Human kind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one and only truth." - Hiromu Arakawa/Full Metal Alchemist
"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up. " - Pablo Picasso The funny thing is the more I read and whittle down my back log of material, the more I want to read. So, the pile begins to grow again. Of course, I wouldn't call it a problem. As I often tell my
brother, it's a good thing to never be able to read all that you want to. Writing comes in endless supply.
When I was a kid I would walk a mile each way to go to the library. Coming home, I'd have so many books in my arms I couldn't see over the stack. So many stories and facts. I was a sponge. Back then, anything was possible.
What happened?
It is clear to me now that my destiny lies in those same books. It never left. I love words. It's time to start making things happen.
Wheels are spinning. Cogs are turning.
True evil is never trying to live your dreams. Fulfillment comes from within.
