a Romanian philosopher

"What a man knows only through feeling can be explained only through enthusiasm."
-E.M. Cioran
Enthusiasm is the essence right now. That is how I can sum up my attitude and out look on life. My relationship, romantically speaking, is very positive. The closeness that I have with my family and, more specifically, my cousin is key to my current position on life. Things aren't perfect and I don't expect them to be. Life is never easy and what fun would it be if it were? The pool team is struggling but growing. I credit that aspect of my life to complementing my leadership abilities and learning life skills. I find more and more that I can learn from people around me, that aren't experts on anything, in comparison to experts or professionals. I never block out good advice but I can't help to be enthusiastic about the future. I know there are many tests and obstacles in my path but I say, 'bring it asshole and controller of life'. Also, I would like to say, "Mr. Pool God, if you could not fuck with my pool game anymore than it already is, I would appreciate it……..that is all. Oh and your awesome, amen." I don't really have a message to send out here but I am encouraged and looking for more no matter what the test.
