Welcome

Welcome to My World! To me the goal was to Learn, to See, to Know, to Understand. Never could I glimpse a sail on an outbound ship but my heart would stumble and my throat grow tight. Up to a point a man's life is shaped by environment, heredity, and movements and changes in the world about him: then comes a time when it lies within his grasp to shape the clay of his life into the sort of thing he wishes to be. Only the weak blame parents, their race, their times, lack of good fortune, or quirks of fate. Everyone has it within his power to say, this I am today, that I shall be tomorrow. The wish, however, must be implemented by deeds. Louis L 'Amour in The Walking Drum
