There's a quality I'm looking for that it appears is extremely rare. I'm looking for someone who chooses to be a good person. That means she has to have that choice, and then must reject all the temptations to become a greedy piece of crap, and become a good person.
My journey led me down a very dark path for a while. I was good looking, good at sports, went to an Ivy League University, was smart and clever... I had job offers for insane amounts of money. All I had to do was treat most people like pieces of trash, and I could buy all the cars and houses and women I wanted.
All my friends in that position took it with giant greedy smiles, but for whatever reason I thought it was a horrible way to live, and decided to attempt to be an actual good person.
Now I live on a little island where I build houses with my own hands, grow food, build inventions and sleep with a clear conscience. I can't reiterate enough how important it is to have a clear conscience. It makes life worth living. ...and it's something that no amount of money can ever buy.
If any of this resonates with you... please say hi. Maybe we'll hit it off, maybe nothing, maybe I'll become your mentor for a similar journey... who knows.
