Self Reliance

Often, countries and groups of people desire to be self-sufficient to be able to stand by themselves without another's support. However, while this is a very secure, prudent course of action for a people, I do not think that this is a very wise decision for a person. Humans were meant to be social, and in relation to one another. I embrace a social lifestyle very heartily, in moderation of course, heartily in moderation. I depend heavily on my friends to sate my social desires, but I am also reserved enough to take any fluctuations or strife that may arise for me socially. People need people, but also themselves. Relationships between one another are like walking on a tightrope. If you are going to walk the walk, then have the precaution of setting up a safety net for yourselves.

Appetizer #3: Quote By Nathaniel Hawthorne

"Words -- so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them."

Words are more than enunciations and pronunciations created and shaped by the tongue, vocal cords, and lungs. More than ink inscribed into specific patterns, figures, and shapes. Those things are mere manifestations of the intangible knowledge blooming to existence. Words are the medium through which the wellspring of information, knowledge, and wisdom is passed from one to another. Also, they are the conduit for the expression of emotion, whether positive or negative.
     A spiteful word can create animosity which can cause one to murder another. A kind word can take save somebody from taking his own life. There is great power whether for salvation or damnation in the core of words.

Memoir Title

Trying to Be Better. I would name my book this because that is one of the most prominent actions of my life. The reason I try is because I have a standard which I will probably never live to reach, but with every step closer, I relish my success and see where I can improve more.
