The search for happiness
The whole in everything
When Ketu turned twelve years old he was sent to a master, with whom he studied until he was twenty-four. Upon finishing his training, he came back home filled with pride.
His father asked him:
How can we know what we cant see? How can we know that God the Almighty is everywhere?
The young man began...

did you see the SGLA group posting "Hang with Andromeda" You should come meet me! 
ed:
Did you write that or did you find that? Regardless, it's amazing. There is never room for the sorrows of mankind when I read your journal.
i had, what you may call, a parting of the ways with my graphic design job with this company i've been with for a couple of years now...
I say parting of the ways rather than fired because for two hours I was allowed the luxury of defending myself...

I'm sorry to hear about that. What Fuckers! It sounds like you did bring alot, they just don't want to admit it. They just use you and spit you out. I'm sure you'll find something much better, somewhere that will appreciate you and treat you well. Don't worry!
andromeda:
Ya know, a cool ass member from SG got me started into meditating. Oh my does it help. Have you been trying? I've been in a situation kinda like yours before. I can understand how you must feel, but trust me you are better off somewhere else where you will be happy!
so the new year starts...
a little something for myself...I am guilty on all counts....i am turning to the next chapter
Closing a cycle

The mousetrap
Very worried, the mouse saw that the farmer had bought a mousetrap: he was out to kill him!
He began to warn all the other animals:
Careful with the mousetrap! Careful with the mousetrap!
The hen, hearing his shouts, asked him to be quiet:
My dear mouse, I know that this a problem for you, but its not going to have the last...

The importance of others
The solitary ember
Juan always attended Sunday services at his parish. But then he began to find that the pastor always said the same things, so he stopped going to church.
On a cold winters night two months later, the pastor paid him a visit.
He must have come to try to convince me to go back, Juan thought to himself....

I went to the dentist and already I am better!! but I`m going to have an operation.

The whole self-publishing thing's my plan, actually. Most of my ideas don't really seem to be of the type of thing that would be published by any known people except maybe Top Shelf Comics. Ehn. I know I'm choosing the hard road.
That is an interesting story.

Where are you headed?
I am all for the rash decisions, if you can run-run, and enjoy your freedom while you can.
