Journey Infinite -- Intellectual musings (and some - not so much), satire, insights, analysis, current events, and a sweet hangman game. I'm also @ myspace.com/journeyinfinite and under my name on Facebook :-D
About me...
- journeyinfinite
- Lots of neat quirks, highly imaginative, a total daydreamer, happy, healthy, with a side order of the goofy streak. Finds interesting, new ideas and things to work on/play with/learn about all the time...and I kinda want to travel the world to see it all! The universe knows what it's doing!

Step out of your head sometime...
It is not so remarkable that our greatest joy should come when we are motivated by concern for others. We find that not only do altruistic actions bring about happiness but they also lessen our experience of suffering...the sufferings which undermine our internal peace -- anxiety, doubt, disappointment.
Since our every action has a universal dimension, a potential impact on others' happiness, ethics are necessary as a means to ensure that we do not harm others. Genuine happiness consists in those spiritual qualities of love, compassion, patience, tolerance and forgiveness and so on. For it is these which provide both for our happiness and others' happiness. --Ethics for a New Millennium, by the 14th Dalai

I so hope America can get past the color of this man's skin and the phonetic similarity of his name(s) to a terrorist's and ELECT HIM... his ideas about education are spot on, particularly his views on AP/IB courses, how minorities are underrepresented in them AND how our schools don't give minorities the tools to succeed in those classes if they do take them. Exactly the same things we've talked about at our school.
He's a smart one. Which will probably be why he doesn't get elected.
I heart the HuffPo. Think I'll jet over there!
Woot, Holmesie!
