and now, time for a bit of poetry, or possibly considered random rambling:

everything is a lie,
nothing is true,
we live in a dream,
but it is called reality.
life is momentary,
Death Is eternal
It may be a lie, but what a beautiful lie life is. I wish to one day wake form this world, weather it be to the abyss, or a bliss beyond any possible understanding. One must live life the way they choose, not letting any one other tell him the path he should take. We must make a place for ourselves in this world, and assure that we leave something, someone, small or big, behind to show that we were here, that we made our way, that we were able to do what we set up for ourselves, or at least that we enjoyed our stay in this place.

I do not know how much of an impact I have made on others lives, how others think of me, nor will I ever truly be able to understand another person fully, not because I don't try, it is because i am not them. One can guess on how another feels, thinks, or acts, but truthfully, everything is but a gamble. Every person is an individual, regardless of how much they conform or adhere to society. To say that one is nothing more than a shell that follows everyone else, one just needs to look a little deeper to see that that person is different.

I am but a man, such a frail being in this world. I will not call it harsh, but I will call it hard. If one does not struggle, if one does not go through any hardships, regardless of how small or unnoticed it is, one cannot grow and become stronger. The easy path may lead to the same place you want to go, but the hard path will bring you wisdom and strength, even if the only thing you learned was that the short path was probably the better one. The wise do not call themselves wise, and the truly powerful will not show their strength.

Walk slow and steady lest you run and stumble through life. I will enjoy my time here as much as possible, but I will work diligently when it is called for.

Keep ones friends close, ones enemies closer, and your most loved one closest of all, because they are the one that can crush you the easiest and without warning.

"I am but a rurouni, my blade is wielded for no man other than myself. My body may seem weak, but my mind and resolution will not bend, Life is desired, death is a given, I will fight to die, and live to see another day.
