Impossible is nothing...
...At least that is what the commercials tell me, which I am suppose to believe rather than relying on something called common sense. Impossible is flapping my arms fast enough to fly. Impossible is punching my hand through a glass window and not breaking it. That is something, so while in TV land impossible may be nothing, to me impossible is something. It's tangible. It's like acknowledging that the rate at which we are using the earth's resources is going to destroy the poor thing before its time. It's a fact, it's there, but for the most part very few of us actually think anything is wrong, and will keep going about things in the same manner until we are violently forced to do otherwise. Acknowledgement of such things is tangible. While it's good to dream, and aspire to achieve great things, these goals need to be constantly examined, and adjusted throughout the process in order to keep sight of what's important. We won't reverse the effects of pollution, and convert to alternative fuel sources over night. Instead it will come from years of dedication, sacrifice, and work across the board. Confucius once told me that it's okay to take things slowly, as long as I don't stop. This is important. Nothing that is ever truly worth it will be easy, and quick. The path may often be narrow, and over grown with obstacles, but each hard time serves a purpose. Insert ending cliche here - Choose the path less traveled. It will take you where you need to go faster than you think.
