Howdy,
I'm Jonathan, I'm in college, and still figuring shit out, while struggling with loneliness and trying to find an girl while being too analytical and self aware about almost everything. I'm also always on quest to better myself and my mind. I'm always seeking a higher perspective or the mythical enlightenment that comes from higher thought. It seems like every few weeks I'm on a search for new strange, cool interesting music. I have no idea really what I want to do other then greatness so in the mean time I'm forcing myself to excel (perfectionist) in classes to become a biomedical engineer. Psychology and philosophy are fascinating as well.
Some quotes to live by.
We're fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance. ~Japanese Proverb
Read, every day, something no one else is reading. Think, every day, something no one else is thinking. Do, every day, something no one else would be silly enough to do. It is bad for the mind to be always part of unanimity. - Christopher Morley
He who learns must suffer, and, even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus
Follow the path of the unsafe, independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the dangers of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of 'crackpot' than the stigma of conformity. And on issues that seem important to you, stand up and be counted at any cost. - Thomas J. Watson
Be fit for more than the thing you are now doing. Let everyone know that you have a reserve in yourself; that you have more power than you are now using. If you are not too large for the place you occupy, you are too small for it. - James A. Garfield
What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal. - Albert Pine
In any case, stop worrying about finding a girl, and focus on becoming a man, and by all means have as much fun as possible along the way. Eventually, the girl will find you. - anonymous
"If you fail at being yourself, you're destine to fail at life and who likes failing at life? Plus, you can never waste time living as yourself. It's a fool proof plan, ; D" - me
I've met so many people, often the scum of the earth, and found them, you know, quite decent. I am an uncomfortable stranger to moral indignation. ~W. Somerset Maugham
Wherever there is a human being, there is an opportunity for a kindness. ~Seneca
