Thinking Wheels

"Don't expect your genius to be discovered; do what you must do because it gives you joy. Don't expect your love to be accepted. Love because it justifies your life." 
~Paulo Coelho 


This quote got me thinking: no one comes knocking on your door for anything in your life (unless they're coming for a visit). My ideas are just that: mine. No one knows them but me. I want other people to know them, but they don't. And they don't because I'm not doing anything with them except thinking about them. These ideas may not be "genius" but they do bring me joy. So why not do something with them?! I need to add some coal to my slow moving train and do everything I think about. 


My chinese fortune cookie this week summed it up: "You can't fail unless you try."
