Every Day
Every day I wake up and I just want to do the routine. The routine is what got me here. I was so frustrated, confused and demoralized late last year, when my building was condemned and I was forced to move. But the routine stuck with me that whole time. I was read, prepared to make the necessary adjustments. Nothing was stopping me at that point. I made myself into the man I am now. So much has changed in just two months!

The Reality
The great thing about living today is that life is so incredibly easy. All you have to do is go to the library every day and read (and browse the internet).

My Future
I want to create the greatest life that I possibly can. I want to do the things that I know will truly make me fierce, unstoppable. I know what I have to do. I have to try. I have to work on myself and take action.
When was the most successful time in my life? I think 2017. That was the year that I wrote my first novel. It was not the hardest thing that I ever had to do, but it was certainly the longest thing that I ever wrote.
Who am I kidding?
College was my height, and always will be. I learned so many frigging skills in such a short amount of time. I was doing physics animations in 3D Studio Max, I was editing video and making sound effects. I was drawing. It feels like that was my height, but objectively it probably wasn't. I think that objectively, right now would be my height. For many reasons, I have reached unprecedented levels in my life.
Actually, I think that I can safely say that College was nowhere near my peak. I was confused and just wanted to be a "good boy". Now I can be what I want to be.

Who To Vote For?
Ultimately, I made a judgment call when voting for Trump. It was a decision that I was glad to make. At the time, nothing else seemed like a possibility. Trump just has a way of making himself last in your mind. It's amazing, really. The thing that I wish I knew was that a lot of the complaining that Republicans do is really fake.
Republicans spend a lot more time funding liberal causes than fighting them. Ultimately, it would take a different national outlook - or a different reality - for me to achieve that which I have set out to achieve. Something has to give, and I'm willing to make myself work hard to achieve that which I have set out to do.
First, I would say, when voting, follow your own principles. If you don't like whining, don't accept whining. If you vote for the whiner, that says more about you than them. Whining never helped anybody. It's work that makes life better.
Second, do some independent research. A lot of the time, whining only works on people who don't know the truth. If you know the truth about America/China relations, or America/World relations, you'll know well enough to see through the whining.
Why am I whining about whining? Well, I'm whining about whining to whine about whiners who drink wine and whine the whine of the times...

Am I A Zealot?
It could very well be that I'm a zealot, that I'm making my choices based on emotion, not logic. But it's not likely. The most reliable belief system that I have learned in life is that those who tell you that you are not responsible for your own actions are your real enemy. The person who claims that racism is the reason why a black child can't read or can't stay out of juvenile hall as that child's mortal enemy.
The person who says that will do a complete 180 when it comes to their own kids. Only the best schools. Only the best tutors. Only the best nutrition for their own families. Only the best real estate. The actual point is that blacks were around 100,000 years before the first white person was born. There was no "free lunch." There were no food stamps or Link cards or SSI checks. We've already proved that we can do it.
It will happen for us one way or the other. We will find out what it's like to survive and thrive as successful people.
And when we do, watch out!

Global Economic Collapse
What would I do tomorrow if the entire world economy shut down. Before you call me a crackpot, let me say that there are a lot of shady things going on financially in this country, and in the world at large.
Without going into too much detail, we're in trouble. And we know we're in trouble. We don't have the resources that we say that we do, and the ones we do have are running out. Yes, I am a conservative (in the literal sense) so I wish to conserve.
But what would I do? I've been reading up on it, and I think the best thing to do would be to stay near a source of water. You know what they say about the Great Lakes. It looks like horse shit, but it's clean. The next step would be to get in shape. The bus and rail system may be ending soon, and it's going to be a long walk to downtown, or anywhere else.
We can survive, but we must be able to create an environment of prosperity. I'll keep going on this thread in the future.
Yours Sincerely,
