Posh and Becks have moved to Los Angeles: [is this good?]

Being a serious soccer fan it's hard to say if this is a good move or not. For the U.S. league I would say yes they made a good move in bringing in one of the biggest names in soccer. For Beckham though, why come to one of the very few to only country where soccer is not viewed as the best sport ever? Wouldn't this be a downsizing in a career?

Where you come from is important. It gives you history. Besides you have to start somewhere. Where you come from helps mold you into the person you are today. You can strive to be nothing like those you grew up around or become the same carbon copies and even be similar to those around you. Being an outsider will give you a great insight to those around you. It makes you grow up faster I believe. As hard as being different can be, it can give you a perspective unlike those around you in that you can better weigh out what goes on around you. This outsiderness can either help you reach new heights or can cause you to fall into a hole you have to fight very hard to make it back out of.

It's not so much where you end up that counts as much as the journey you take to get there. The end result is just that the end result. The journey now that's something. You may have a planned spot to make it to but sometimes life just doesn't work out to make it there. You learn a lot about yourself and that can end up sending you in a new direction. 

Have you gone on a walk today?   

If you could eat only 3 foods for the rest of your life, what would they be?

Yumm food. First would have to be Reese's Peanutbutter Cups. Then would be a good homemade salad. Last choice would have to be Shrimp.

How many email addresses do you have?  What are they for? 
Submitted by clippedwings.

I like the question. I have three. The first being my school email. This is an important email for it allows me to keep up with the school happenings. It's always chaotic when the server goes down. The second is my personal email. This one is given to very close friends and family. It allows me to keep up with the world in my family. Then I have my curiousity/work/professional email. That one's self-explanitory.

This is not a simple question. Many people often wonder: Who am I? At age 21 I still look to what defines me, what qualifies as my identity, what do people see when they see me?

Apperances can be decieving so does that mean that my t-shirt and pants (the usual attaire) doesn't give me identity? But yet people see me and size me up by my clothes. You see clothes and apparence can be important. By the clothes and hairstyle, you use to determine my sex and/or gender. You determine if I am a threat, a friend, like you, different, clean, and countless other possibilities. Do I defy your perception?

Actions not words define the person. If so, do my actions scare you? What actions would one define character with? I stand in the middle of the quad to watch the pouring rain. Now, am I crazy or just amazed? Actions speak louder but do they define a piece of you? I seem to think so. What you do today will affect you in the long run. I look in the mirror; I can look myself in the eye; can you say the same?

Are words not actions? A favorite saying  of mine is words are worse than a loaded gun. The moment you say it you can never take it back. No thing ever heals the way that it was. 

I constantly ask who am so that I never forget who I am.

Afterall Identity is the only thing that no one can ever take from you.

Til the next adventure
