I'm taking a little break to blog about it, because it's such an interesting concept. I chose to write my paper on this, because I see life as being all about our intentions and not about what becomes of them. Let me explain. Let's say someone gets into a car. They haven't been drinking at all and there's nothing altering their state of mind. They see something in the road and swerve to avoid it. By doing this they crash head on into an on-coming car. Someone in the other car gets severely injured. Was this the driver's intention all along? Of course not! Is this person a cold-hearted evil human being that rammed their car into another with the 'intention' of harming someone? No. Those horrible events happened, but they were never the driver's intention. It was an accident. What i'm getting at is that we are not defined by events that happen in our lives. We're defined by the honest intentions that we have, and the good things that we do. Intending to do something positive, then not doing it is a waste. At the same time it would have been just as wasteful to sit around never intending on doing anything at all.
And that's my point.
Our intentions define who we are.
wow, that's a cool picture
