goals
Understanding your goals to help you achieve them.
Fact: Either you discipline yourself or somebody else will
There are a lot of people in this world who think that authority is a problem. They really have a tough time with anybody or anything trying to exercise authority over them. These are rebellious people. You've seen all sorts of kids in public places telling their moms or dads off.

Welcome back to the Roaring '20's!
Welcome back to the Roaring ‘20’s! What does that even mean? The roaring '20'? For centuries there has been an eventful decade of the '20's. In the 1920's we had with the Great Depression, with the first world war ending it resulted in a Great Depression. Also, the plague resurfacing but that didn’t stop the world from accomplishing things. Many American's owned cars, radios, and telephones for the first time.

There is gold everywhere, but almost nobody knows how to identify it
People have had to live through some pretty tough days, after the outbreak of a pandemic that until 4 months ago seemed totally unthinkable that it could happen, and that has questioned the future of many national economies, and that could imply a total change for international business policies and financial markets.

Dropouts Make Great Pictures
I believe that drop outs should not be turned a cold shoulder because there are many people who are meant to create and don't need to pay thousands of dollars for a continued education. I've made many decisions in my life and one of my most significant ones was the decision to drop out. All these decisions will bring me on to a unique path. Knowing this, I constantly remind myself that the future-version of me that is homeless was brought to that situation because of my own choices. However, my dream is to play professional soccer, so my choices will also determine if I get there.

Keep Moving Forward!
I'm moving forward. The best words of advice my father ever gave me was, "You can be whatever you want and do whatever you want by setting your mind to it!" He was an example of that. There was nothing I could find that my dad couldn't do. He spoke multiple languages, sang, played music, competed in bowling, was a black-belt in Judo, was a marksman archer, and had an intelligence position in the military that he never discussed. He became the sales leader then the sales manager at a major auto dealership after mustering out.

Handwriting Lover
Growing up, I found myself valuing papers. To the point where I found myself in my room with stacks of paper. After years of writing I wanted to do something with all the papers that I have collected. Therefore, I decided to design art pieces with my papers of words. Shortly, I started to take pictures and make small videos. Pretty much, writing allows me to tell stories slightly from the norm. Similar, to creating an unheard of universe and introducing it to the realities of millions. Leading into a new development of art that I refer to as scripted-blue.

Just a writer.
It all began when my mother brought me my first book ‘’The Adventures of Tom Sawyer’’ when I was 8-9 years old. As I had just learned how to read and becoming accustomed to it, my mother thought that it would help me to not only be better at reading but also to broaden my horizons and engross the brilliant world of literature. As mentioned previously my first book was ‘’The Adventures of Tom Sawyer’’ I still remember how excited my mother was to bring me that book as she was as well a great fan of literature, me being the ordinary young child I started acting unreasonably and getting upset that my mother would make me read my homework again; but when I first took the book in my hands and ran my fingers through the old pages of it, I started getting excited and happy. The story began and my mind and soul was completely focused on Tom Sawyer’s adventures. I managed to finish the book in 2 days since I was so engaged in the plot and when I did finish I was fascinated by so many things. First of all, by my ability to just recreate what I was reading and imagine it, I felt like I was directing my own little movie. Secondly, how attached I had grown to the main character, as when the book finished I got sad and didn’t want to say goodbye to his adventures and his personality that was full of braveness and mischief. Finally, the way that I got jealous of Mark Twain and wondered how he succeeded in writing such a great book that motivated me to start writing. The same evening I took out my little pink notebook, and i started writing short childish stories. I would go around and have this proud smile and tell people ``I am a writer``. Time passed rather quickly, and i found myself nostalgic of how reckless, proud and clueless i was. I started drifting away from writing, I started having this ideas that I was bad at it. Time passed. Until that summer evening... I was walking around in the town of Mykonos without paying attention on where i was going when i came across a small church, in front of it it had a small garden and you could see the whole town and even the old harbor of Mykonos. The view was breathtaking. The majestic orange warm sun positioned in the middle of the sky that was clear from clouds. The sea was calm, you could hear the distant sounds of the waves. The sun was reflecting on the refreshing salty surface,as it started going down as if it wanted to dive in the sea, the sky's orange from the sun started fading and a dark blue started appearing. Before you know it the sun has dissipated and in seconds it was replaced by the full bright moon along with his fellow yellow stars. I could feel the reviving air blow slightly to my face. The sea remained still, i was full of ideas and creativity and I knew then and there that I had to start writing again.

Curse of the Creatives
Born and bred a romantic; raised on the classics and submerged into a lifestyle where your imagination rules the daily narrative. Being a creative means a life surrounded by ideas, a million things before breakfast that you can only hope to complete. When you attend an art gallery, the first thought; maybe I should start painting again? Further still, pandemic inflicted isolation is leaving a longing in so many to be doing something, well, something more.

Crossroads
Start writing... That’s what it tells me to do More along the lines of start thinking... The world is upside-down now, or at least on its ear pear-shaped... Everyone is scared now, or rather, most are scared in the first-world countries... Others are non-chalant... Many are hopeful... The rest might as well be sheep...

What About Me??
I have never been good at expressing myself. I sometimes find it extremely hard just to formulate one sentence describing how I am feeling. Some I am certain would argue my environment is to blame; that my being forced to live in silence, my not being allowed to deal with my emotions, all contributes my lack of communication skills.

Stop Dwelling on the Past
No matter how hard you are on yourself, you can't be stuck on the past. If they ever had a time machine, people would be stuck on it. You know why? Because no matter the outcome everyone wants to always change one thing that happened. I have learned that no matter what nothing will ever be as fantastic as you would want it so just go with the flow.
