-Ralph Waldo Emerson

More about Joseph:"I guess my favorite quote about sums it up.It wasn't always that way.The school of hard knocks you know.It would be redundant to go into all that,I had a tough childhood,I had a tough life,blah blah,yada yada.I think everyone has it tough in thier own way.Our lives are all the same...Expand for more
,but they're all different.That's exactly why I like meeting new people and learning thier perspectives.I started out in life knowing very little,then I knew more,now I know alot more,and eventually, I'd like to know everything.Not that that's going to happen,but I aspire to getting as close to that goal as I possibly can.And I know the only way to do it is by learning.I find that besides reading non-fiction,or actual experience, the best way to do that is by listening to others relate thier experiences.Thier successes and failures,thier likes and dislikes,what trully makes them happy,what trully makes them sad.My ambition concerning this issue has led me to seven continents in my lifetime, so far.Fortysix countries,fortynine states and counting.Everywhere I've been,I've met countless people,and every single one of them has had somethig to contribute,even if it was only something small,I found it useful, and uniquely informative.I try to be as empathetic as I can,always,and treat everyone I meet as if they are family.After all,wether you believe in creation,or evolution theory,they really are family.This,of course,is only a glimpse of me.I'm not proud,or macho,or timid,or effeminate.I'm not arrogant,or passive,extrovert or introvert.I'm no one inparticular,just...Everyman.".
