"To find yourself, think for yourself" - Socrates
"We are what we repeatedly do" - Aristotle
- I will be polite and courteous at all times and treat everyone with respect... this does not mean I will put up with your bullshit... so watch yourself...
- I will be a gentleman... this does not mean I am a pussy... gentlemen can handle themselves in a tough situation...
- I will defend truth... the truth will always be the truth - wether you choose to believe it or not... and those that speak the truth must also be protected... so much for my simple uncomplicated life...
- I will protect innocence...
- I will not tell others how to live their lives... but I will make fools out of those who tell me how to live mine...
- I will protect my faith... it is the faith I was raised in and it is the faith I have chosen... my beliefs are mine and I will fight for what is mine... I will not preach or push my beliefs on others... but I will push back those who try to push their beliefs on me... with a baseball bat and a brick if need be...
- I will find more work for my hands... sculpting... wood working... making books... and leather goods... gardening - I will find a patch in the yard to grow my own food...
- I will not refuse a young man who comes to me for advice... I will tell it to him the way it is and guide him in the right direction... if it is direction which he seeks...
- I will seek out like minded individuals and begin to form my gang... the few friends I have are scattered around the world, busy solving their own mysteries and finding their own place in this world...
- I will maintain a regular correspondence with new friends (of like mind and spirit) for mutual support and encouragement... that is what a brotherhood does...
- I will stop sleeping around with sluts... (ouch!) - if I am going to solve a problem I must stop being part of the problem... women are at the bottom of my list of priorities anyhow... this should not be very hard for me... getting woman is not hard for me and I do attribute most of that to my communication skills and my charm... but I will focus that energy on women that truly do deserve my attentions and affections... and stop wasting time with the whores and the tramps...
- I will sell the rest of the crap as soon as possible and return to South America... and build my farm...
- I will gather up my clan and build up my tribe... and prepare my body and mind for the moment destiny has set aside for me... because it is coming...

This is one I wrestle with. I've been trying to do the same, but then when you find a good girl and you find the two of you are not compatible, having already added to her notch count, it seems like you are always left feeling like a total piece of shit for 'leading her on' even if your intentions at the time were noble. I thought I would find this course of action simpler, and healthier, it has turned out to be anything but, but then I am far less experienced and most likely am not yet capable of drawing the line clearly for myself. It's quite a responsibility not to hurt those who are not yet damaged goods.
that's a tough one - I don't even know... we just have to roll the dice and hope for the best... it is the reason why I have gone through so many women... it is a weeding out process... looking for the right one - not the one... the right one... I can't explain the difference - but there is a difference.
