I am neither pro- nor anti-gun. I am gun-conscious.

I can only write about personal stuff, about my point of view.

'The Great Gatsby' is a book I have read a few times, and it seems to get heavier every time I come to visit.

I just write what I think is good and keep it at a thousand words.

It took me until my teenage years to realize that I was medicating with music. I was pushing back against my stupid school uniform, instructors who called me by my last name and my classmates, who, while friendly enough, were not at all inspiring.

Creating problems is easy. We do it all the time. Finding solutions, ones that last and produce good results, requires guts and care.

I used to fight the pain, but recently this became clear to me: pain is not my enemy; it is my call to greatness. But when dealing with the Iron, one must be careful to interpret the pain correctly. Most injuries involving the Iron come from ego. I once spent a few weeks lifting weight that my body wasn’t ready for and spent a few months not picking up anything heavier than a fork. Try to lift what you’re not prepared to and the Iron will teach you a little lesson in restraint and self-control.
