An Ephemeral Update

Well, I thought I would just give everyone a quick update on how I've been doing, and what I've been up too.

This week has been quite mixed, but I would have to say it has been quite incredible in many ways. Mixed, more-so because my ex-girlfriend suddenly decided she did not wish to be my friend as I am an 'unhealthy' person in her life, whom she is better without. What caused the post-romance powder-keg to explode was my refusing to remove a blog-post I wrote-up on my feelings on the whole situation about a week or so ago that streamed directly to Facebook. I deleted it from the news-feed, as yes, I did not want it to be flaunted... but the only people that were going to look for it in my notes are the same people that would read my blog, and therefore, there was no serious problem... but her side of the argument was that I said too many personal things relating to her in the post, and although she didn't mind it on my blog, she thought it was an invasion of her privacy if released on Facebook. It's not that I didn't see her point... it's that I disagreed with it, and privacy is an issue she is hypersensitive about. She then proceeded to dump me as a friend and a Grad walking partner (which wasn't a huge issue at all, as I already had a few girls asking, yet had rejected due to believing I was going with her... but when she did decide to ditch me on walking, it didn't take me very long to find a new walking partner), and followed it up by deleting me from Facebook.

Sure, I did indeed make my mistakes, and it is hard to be friends with an ex, especially immediately following the break-up... but if she really thought of me as an 'unhealthy' person, and still holds an ill opinion of me, I honestly don't feel the need to care. I do think it's best we aren't friends for now, as so we can properly get over each other, as well as get over how we changed during the relationship for or because of the relationship, but I'd think it pretty shallow and petty if she decided to bar us from ever being friends again.
But yes, as I said, a break is appreciated, that's for sure. Friendship immediately after a break-up is close to, if not impossible, I've found.

Aside from all that jazz, I finished my latest short story, And the Angel Never Said Hello, for those of you who took the liberty of reading it. I think it's probably one of my best works, and I am contemplating a follow-up story as to further illustrate the prominence of injustice in the modern world, and how the main character, Dante, attempts to stand-up to said injustice. I would also like to delve, once again, into human misinterpretations of karma, as was illustrated in Dante's incarceration for accidentally killing a murderer.

Anyways, I should probably head out and continue packing for my trip tomorrow, in which I'm departing to Vancouver with my mom and brother for 10 days (until the 20th of March), as to visit with family and friends in the area. I will also be driving for a majority of the trip, which is a first for me, and that should be an interesting first experience.

Peace out, blue planet, and have a great Spring Break!

The world is meaningless,

there is no God or gods, there are no morals, the universe is not moving inexorably towards any higher purpose.
All meaning is man-made, so make your own, and make it well.
Do not treat life as a way to pass the time until you die.
Do not try to "find yourself", you must make yourself.
Choose what you want to find meaningful and live, create, love, hate, cry, destroy, fight and die for it.
Do not let your life and your values and your actions slip easily into any mold, other that that which you create for yourself, and say with conviction, "This is who I make myself".
Do not give in to hope.
Remember that nothing you do has any significance beyond that with which you imbue it.
Whatever you do, do it for its own sake.
When the universe looks on with indifference, laugh, and shout back, "Fuck You!".
Rembember that to fight meaninglessness is futile, but fight anyway, in spite of and because of its futility.
The world may be empty of meaning, but it is a blank canvas on which to paint meanings of your own.
Live deliberately. You are free.
