A Call To Adventure
May 27, 2009
I always felt like I should take some kind of warriors quest to become a man. A rite of passage, something all to often neglected in our modern world. Now I am going on one.
I am leaving behind almost everything I know to go make a new life for myself. While I know where I am going, I am not completely sure how getting there is going to work out. Nor how everything is going to work once I get there. This is not usual for me given that I like to plan ahead, but this time, I can only get so much information, and some things I’m just going to have to learn on the way by doing.
I have spent the last two years reading about how money, business, and life in general works. I’ve studied literature, constitutional law, religions, alternative thought, propaganda, and careers. Now I want to find out if any of that is going to be useful or not.
I’ve always been intelligent, but I have never really seemed to know how to use it, and that is something that I want to find out for myself, first hand, if I can do or not. And if I can’t do it than I want to learn how. I know I’m going to need some serious mentoring. For the time I am looking to my quotes for that, but I have a lot more to learn. And so I will be starting my own version of the monomythic quest.
