hiatus
also. sorry for the hiatus. this is directed mostly at my friend rebecca and brother kevin who keep bugging me to write.
If you're 5 feet or below, you're a midget.
This doesn't even make sense, guys. I mean, sure. You're short. Sure, you're petite. — But are you disproportionate? If the answer is no, then you're not a legal midget. I might also add that midget is actually a perjorative term, so maybe say something else.
Acceptable terms include: little person and dwarf. I know, I'm a little surprised too. Those seem worse.
According to Wikipedia, a midget is sometimes described as someone below the height of 4'10. Whew. Just made it.

Inspiration is Creation
Quite the tight rope to walk.
But, alas, we walk it.
Inspiration is what needs to be defined here. Inspiration has the potential to come from even the smallest molecule of energy, thought, or theory. It doesn't have to be one kick in the bum. It's the act of creation that should be inspiration to others that they too must be creators. If you're not creating anything, then you're just taking stock of other people's pasture. It might just be a sad attempt at emulating the vastness of being God, but it's all there is. So, keep doing what you're doing, and at the end of the day, even if your sandcastle fades with the skyline, the memory remains. That's one more point for humanity.

Some people are simply destined for greatness.
One thing is for sure, however, if you live your life in a way that suspends the thought of failure, notice will be taken. For the same reasons people love shows like Mad Men, charm and grace are superior to skill, though surely it's clear that it helps immeasurably. It's more often than not that memoirs cause me to take stock of the life I'm building, reflect and figure out a way to build more by working harder and smarter.
If nothing else, I'm bulleting out talking points.

"It's nothing personal."
It's always something personal. Let's think about this: you're dealing with people. The word "person" resides in the phrase "It's nothing personal."
Boom goes the dynamite. Am I right?
