There’s always enough time

We hear all to often that there isn’t enough time in the day, but is it really true? I don’t know about anyone else, but I always seem to find the time to do what I really want to do. In fact if I tell you I don’t have time, it usually probably means I don’t want to find the time or that I can think of 10 other things I need to do, that I’d rather do. I think everyone is like this, we all find time to do the things we want. Sure there isn’t enough time in the day to do everything, but as long as there is enough time to do what you really want to do, then does it really matter?

With understanding, comes acceptance

This is the first post of a new category about philosophy. I have plenty of ‘em, but I can’t ever remember where I came up with them, so please tell me if you know.

This is one of the core philosophies of my life and a big reason why I become so dedicated to learn about different topics.  There are many things in life that we don’t have any control over and that we are forced to blindly accept like, why aren’t there more HD channels? I’ve always found it easier to accept things if I understand them, so I go on quests for knowledge; but many times there are things that go unanswered and this is something I find very difficult to accept. Why would a parent say “because I said so”, maybe it’s the same reason Verizon won’t tell me what needs to be upgraded for them to compete with DirecTV’s HD offerings.

Regardless, it is, what it is, and I just hope everyone learns one day that with understanding, comes acceptance — for me at least.
