What do I mean?

Last night, I was having a chat with a newer friend of mine and he said something that inspired me to do brave things. What did he say?

ty: heheh your Character... I like it bro

It really was as simple as that. With that, I felt... armed to the the dangerous and impossible. Someone saw something in my character that was good. I liked that and I wanted to protect that statement.

Sometimes, all it takes is encouragement. In my case, when someone encourages me to do something good, I want to do things to protect the encouragement they gave me. I don't know if that makes sense to you.

It's like when your sibling says, "You're a good brother/sister" or when your parents say "You're a good son/daughter". It makes you want to do things so that they always see that in you no matter what.

I went and did some inventory and I cleaned up some things. Things that will make doing the wrong things harder to do and make doing the right things much easier. I was happy with that. I felt... well.... encouraged.

So thanks, Ty, and to all of you that have ever encouraged me to do the things I know to be true and good and noble. I thank all of you for that and I'll keep using that encouragement as power to do more good for myself and others.

In other news, I am putting rubber to road. Yesterday was a bad day for moving, but today is just fine. It's overcast, but not raining. Allow me to show you what we'll have here.

First, we have the books I need to donate:

... and the goodwill items...

There will be more of each of these in the future. I have some books I have decided to read, so as I read them and finish, I will be donating these books to the library as well. For now, this is a pretty big haul. I am excited about it; I'm getting things done and moving in a positive direction with my efforts. This is the beginning of many good things, so it's hard not to be excited (relatively).

I feel good. I'm going to take a shower and get started.

Whatever you are trying to do in order to improve, please remember: TODAY TODAY TODAY is the day of doing. TODAY.
