found

i found a sketchbook the other day outside of a 7-11. I saw it, went into the store, came out and it was still there. so i picked it up and have been reading through it. The guy who wrote in it has spent some serious time talking about goals and failures. I am not alone! It appears that he has graduated college and is working on a masters or PHD... his handwriting is absolutely horrendous. he has a girlfriend from Alabama and he still has zero ideas or clues as to how he will achieve any of the things he wants to do out of life. he has written that he just needs "to do" these things without the thinking part... whatever works, ya know? I think we are all just as lost as this guy and that to find the direction you want to go and have the conviction to go there and succeed in your own goals is really hard to do. This guy is obviously really struggling, he last wrote in it at the end of December, 2010. I suspect he has been missing this moleskin for awhile. He seems to be an engineer that wants to own a business. There is no information as to how to get this book back to him, so I suppose I will just try to read his atrocious chicken-scratch and learn a few more things about him, myself and the rest of humanity. i'll keep ya posted...
