Some Notes Worth Keeping

I don't know why, but I have always challenged status quo. Many call it breaking the rules, but I don't see it that way. I mean, don't get me wrong. Rules and status quo have their place.

I mean, if everybody broke the rules and challenged status quo we would have anarchy, chaos and even backwards progression.

We've all dreamed of being the President or the first person on Mars or winning the Indianapolis 500 or something along those lines.

The contradiction was not lost on me and set-off a flurry of internal reflection.
