Is it just me......




...or does anyone else suspect Matt Damon of channelling "Mr Raditch of Degrassi Junior High" fame, in his latest film, "The Informant"

Filling my brain....but with what

I am in a bit of a conundrum. I want to learn something. Long term, short term, I don't really care. I hate studying, but I hate not studying a bit more.
I have some ideas, lots of ideas in fact, many different coloured ideas. I have to chose one, just one, otherwise I will end up a jibbering idiot with Glandular Fever (been there, done that, got the t-shirt).
So here are my thoughts:

Theology - something I have wanted to study for ages, but never got around to it. It will screw with my head, it will make me question everything, but I also think it will rock my socks!

Writing - I love writing, but I don't think I am very good at it. Educating myself might make me gooder.

Finance/Insurance - Then I can be good at my job and have a career path of sorts.

So do I follow head or heart?

Truth

"Life is difficult. This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths. It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend it. Once we truly know that life is difficult - once we truly understand and accept it - then life is no longer difficult. Because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters."
M. Scott Peck, Author, Psychiatrist and all round pretty cool dude.

In other words, sometimes your the pigeon, sometimes your the statue. It happens to us all, just slap a smile on and get on with it!
