Entourage

It's been said that, you can live without your friends, but not without your neighbors. But my first thought is, 'why not make your friends your neighbors?' Why not have the people who bring us the most joy in life always around us? If we are a product of our environment, then let us surround ourselves with the most solid people we know. They are the people that we want to grow with and enjoy life with.

Of course, there are obvious logistical and geographical problems that often stand between us and those we care most about. Everyone has there own path, and own journey that they must pursue. But, perhaps, we can slowly align ourselves, with the lives of our raddest friends & family. I don't believe it will be easy, but things worthwhile rarely are. Nevertheless, it gives us something to strive for. And who knows, life is funny that way.

The Mountain

I have always loved training montages in kung fu movies where the dedicated hero goes to the all-but-forgotten-temple on top of a mountain and learns from the monks how to be a bad mamajama. I have often day-dreamed about undertaking that journey myself.

Well now, living in Neustrelitz is about as close to metaphorical mountain as I have ever been. I am completely isolated out here. Sans internet, contact with family, and English speakers (a subtitle would be helpful), my goal only becomes clearer. But with only football on the plate, I have be careful not to let an unsavory performance ruin my meals.
