Stay Positive

Or rather stay realistically optimistic. Lately, everything has been pretty hectic and crazy. And there are times where I feel hopeless. There are several instances where I just want to give up and not have to worry about anything anymore. Then I really tried to take action to make those feelings go away. As cheesy as it sounds, I began frantically looking for inspirational quotes. You know those graphics that seem pointless - a photo of mountains and waves and then a huge ass quotation right in the middle of it. Well - I actually find them very visually stimulating. Thank god we've stayed away from using condensed and bold Helvetica for this. Instead, artists and graphic designers really put in more effort and thought by providing unique and one-of-a-kind typography (or I should say handwritten texts) to supplement the otherwise plain and meaningless landscape photo, awkwardly serving as the background supporting the text. 

And this pertains to my previous post about never wanting to stop learning. I really never do because knowledge is power. And it's going to be the greatest asset that nobody is ever going to be able to take away from me.
