Farewell

I have very little time left. Now that the end is near I have many reasons that make me wish I could stay behind. However, I know my duty and feel that I am making the right decision. I can only pray and trust in the Lord to allow my life to near perfection in the future.

Achille's Heel

One would love to think of himself as enduring, influential, above normal passion. However, all is not so: even the great Achilles succumbed to Paris’s poisoned arrow, his image of superiority was lost.
When the one that was allowed to be closest chooses a strange path, even one must admit his error- with a sad joy, one watches the dawn of a new day; not only for himself but for those one wishes best.
Good Luck

The Woman

"Is there such a thing as friendship between a man and a woman? Needless to say, friendships differ. A friendly relationship between men breeds respect, friendship between women can be admired, yet friendship between a man and a woman is often viewed with suspicion, mistrust, and even enmity on both parts."

It has come to my attention that a woman, at best, is impossible to cope with. At the fullest of times, man as an individual, cannot do enough to please or appease. Clearly, the ability to please a woman, in this world, is a spiritual gift, given to the few and the just. Unfortunately, High School students fall neither under the "few" nor the "just".

Surprisingly, women have the innate ability to throw various "screens" around their emotions, forcing men toward many false ideas, leading to the lowest levels of despair and disgust. As I have learned from those around me, any given woman plots further into the future than even a practiced seer would dare foresee.

A woman enshrouds herself in lies, if only to please the emotions within. Creating a haven that they believe to be in complete control. When something does not proceed according to plan, a woman will assume her interests were met needlessly. If plotting did not produce the desired end result, a woman will assume a man, deceived by various "screens", will provide for her lost whims and wishes. If a woman realizes that none of the previous is available to her disposal, she will weep into the arms of her fellow women, never addressing the problem at large, but putting her trust in another scheming woman, like herself, to complete the task at hand.

Men, do not fear, for the woman is only as strong as you allow her to be. If you allow her to control you in your High School years, you are doomed. If you allow her to dwell on your mind in your twentieth year, you are loosing hope. If you allow her to encompass your actions in your twenty and fifth year, you have overcome the passions within yourself, and are ready and able to take one to wife. But until that pinnacle is reached, be weary, for even the simplest of women are impossible.
