The Return of the Jedi

I chose this Title because Star Wars is a set of movies that just wnen you thought they were gone they came out with a whole new series. I realize that I haven't written on this blog in quite a while. Its been just under two years in fact. These two years have helped me discover quite a bit about life. I have learned things about myself. I've learned things about others. And I think I've become a deeper person over this time. So today I just felt like writing. I felt like saying something. I didn't feel like being clever or creative just expressing myself. When I write I feel like I am touching a deeper part of myself. That I am communicating with people something that until I begin to type remains only a feeling. At times when I write and I want to express something I have to really focus and then the sentence just comes forward. And then the Thesis just writes itself. It isn't that I have to come up with something to write as much as I have to get inside and find that something that is already written within. It is that clarity that makes writing fun.

The thing is it would be great if life were a bit more like writing. It would be great if there was a bit more clarity as to that thing which is our purpose. And I really don't know if just focusing harder is enough to get us there. I think the equivalent to focusing harder is learning to endure for a dream. I know suffering and sacrifice are key elements to attaining purpose. But to achieve a noble dream perhaps it takes more than a moment of suffering or sacrifice. To achieve a noble dream, that which is worthy of the life we have been given, takes full commitment. I believe it is at that moment that the Thesis writes itself.
