| The road of life always goes somewhere good. The loud sounds of freight train horns and cold whistling winds blister my ears tonight. As 2008 is coming closer to an end Purple53 will soon be getting a Christmas facelift, manicure and, pedicure. We are about 180 miles west of the New Mexico border resting for the night near a small shopping center that happens to be close to active train tracks. It has taken 15 years to come to this point. The reconnection of childhood friendships prove promising. My good friend Alex Nicholos, star of, Rescue 911, flew into San Diego 2 days ago, to help drive and journey along with Purple53 heading to his hometown of Colorado Springs, Colorado. Alex runs a precision welding shop and is anxious to upgrade and revamp Purple53, including a fresh coat of Paint! Jacumba California comes to a brutal quick end, leaving behind the annoying localized gnats, conservative hippie children, and over hormoneized foreign ambassadors. I try hard to feel safe. I try hard to connect with people. There are moments when I think the bad times outweigh the good because something always happens and I do not feel safe anymore and the people I connect with weren't truly there to begin with. Good friends are the best in these occasions, except when they snore all night long keeping me awake haha. I have acquired a motorcycle recently. Its a beauty, vintage 1975 Yamaha RD350. I have been offered a free motorcycle training course, which will get me a motorcycle license, from Motorcycle Training Academy, in exchange for doing some photography for them. This is another oddly randomly amazing connection I have made from Craigslist. I will post many new photos soon! |

| Maybe I'm approaching life in the wrong way. I attend college working on two majors at the same time; try everything I know to make money; since being laid off I have applied to over 200 places in an attempt to be gainfully employed; and I have to tell you that nobody has presented me with crap on a silver platter: Much less a motorcycle and free training class. Maybe I need to buy an old motor home, paint it a color that will stand-out in the dark and become a red-flag to law enforcement, start a blog on the internet that begs for everything it takes to exist in this world, and hit the road. Oh wait... I have school. I have bills that must be paid. I feel the need to be self-supporting. I have this strange desire to be part of a single comunity and maybe, just maybe, make a long-term positive difference. Oh well - that idea went straight to hell didn't it. This thing I have about responsibility and self-accountability sucks. |

| Yes if you want community I think you're going about it wrong but it is not like I'm an expert, I have yet to find a full whole community. Yeah money, it all depends on how much money you think you need, how many rules you chose to obey, how much money you are capable of making, how you make your money, how you chose to use the money, and if you even need it to begin with! Imagine driving from state to state in the country, what do you first think about? Personally I think about the fence surrounding the land. This causes the big chain reaction that most people will not stop and think twice about. I think twice. I am now living on a 40 acre ranch in Colorado. I have a stock of food that should last well over a month. I have internet. I have electricity. My only bill next month is my phone bill. To earn my keep on the ranch I will be helping the owner with his computers, his animals, and random tasks around the ranch. I only met the guy a few weeks ago and he seems like a good guy. I can not imagine applying to 200 places. That is unimaginable to me. Do you want to live in that world? |
