Life is a journey with too many forks in the road. Does anyone have a map?

So I was sitting here just thinking about things and developed a desire to talk to some old friends. I was thinking back on all the fun adventures I had early in college and even as far back as High School. Lately life has been a little bland and I have been longing for something and I was not sure what it was, but I think I just need to re-establish some of my relationships with old friends. I have had many friends come and go over the last several years that I could try and get in contact with. I think it would be especially fun to see what some of my friends from back home have done with their lives. I often feel like my life is lacking excitement so I get a kick out of seeing friends on facebook and the adventures they are having with dating or with their little families. I get excited for them and the things going on in their lives. I also often wish my life was more eventful. Don't get me wrong, I have had plenty of madness in the past few years, but it has all been family related things. My life itself seems very plain to me and I am trying to find ways to make it more exciting. That can be an overwhelming task when you live in a town where the most excitement you ever see is when half the population responds to a car accident to see what happened. I think a change is going to be in my near future. I sometimes feel like I need to just go do something that is totally not my style like move to a new place where I don't know anybody, or maybe just be a little more daring with some of the business ideas I have had in my head for several years, or maybe I just need to take off on a vacation to some foreign place (I have a little over 100 hours of vacation time I need to use). I feel like lately I have made a lot of my decisions based off of what I thought other people needed and not what I need. The hard things is that it is difficult to make decisions for you when you don't know what you need. I just need to really need to spend some time pondering on what I should do next and how I could make things better for myself. Wow, that stresses me out, but it needs to be done.

My Father Lynn Moses and His Imprisonment

Hey everyone. Please read the articles below in order about the imprisonment of my father and forward it on to anyone you know. Also, if you want to email CNN, Fox News, Glenn Beck, etc. about it, we are trying to get some media coverage on this and by shear volume of emails sent to them hopefully we will be able to get them to pay attention to this. Thanks everyone, this is very very important to me and my family.

Life is predictable and unexpected at the same time

I am still here in the Burg working. I love my job, but sometimes my social life really suffers as I am probably the only person my age in this town that isn't married with children. Most of my long time friends have just graduated and moved to different places so I have developed a new group of a few friends that are typically a bit younger than I. I enjoy hanging out with many of them, but sometimes I don't think they relate because of the stuff I have experienced in the past couple of years. I think a lot about my mom and the struggle of losing her and the adjustment it has been for my whole family and they are thinking about how they have a hard test to take and how their roommate doesn't like them and how hard that is. I often get a selfish attitude and get mad that they could be so consumed by something so insignificant. I know and understand that in each of our own spheres we have problems that seem like a huge deal to us, but I just struggle to sympathize with some people because of my experiences lately. I need to learn to be more understanding as I probably had similar struggles and frustrations when I was younger. Well, that is all that I have for today, but stay tuned for an attempt at staying more up to date on here.
