I was recently made aware of a highly informative website for men. No, I don't mean to find porn or camping supplies. The articles and topics of discussion inspire deep reflection and action for men who want to practice the Art of Manliness.
I encourage anyone who wants some food for thought to examine this website and form a conception of today's ideal modern man. Is that even something people aspire to become anymore? Nobody is perfect, but any man can attempt to behave as civil, intelligent type of fellow. I feel the content of this site tries to challenge the normal man of today to be conscious of their image as a man in this world, and to inspire him to be as great as his will can make him. Lofty? Yes, but achievable.
Since I've been sick, I've tried to challenge myself to become well. It was like a back and forth game with my body, trying to find out what the next step was in getting well. It was like a multiple choice test.
-Bedrest and still not well? What do you do?
-You are now taking medication and fluids, but no changes. What now?
-Correct, a doctor's visit and prescription drugs should do the trick.
I haven't spent much time blogging, cuz of trying to make these games happen. I need to step up working on them even more.. aye I want this semester to end so I can start a real life gaming job and move to California. Getting ahead of myself? Yup!
At the same time, there is still a lot to do here at Ithaca before the semester is over. I'm getting the same sense of this place as I got at C.B. West when it was close to graduation. I find myself stopping and looking at buildings, realizing that I've spent so long at this place and this would all soon be a non-Now memory. I feel slightly jaded, in that I won't miss the weather here. But the experiences I had here also seemed like time-wasters in that I followed a dream that wasn't mine. Still, those experiences made me into the psych-minded ninja game designer I am now.
