Hmmm... I must be doing something right.

So maybe the cliche "everything happens for a reason" is rather indefensible. Saying "some things happen for a reason" is not particularly telling. Perhaps slightly tangent yet still fitting would be "there is always a lesson to be learned."

Inertia is a property of matter.

Often times I observe how life has it's own momentum. When a few key things start getting good, more good things follow and vice versa. Feast or famine. The tricky part is finding out what those key things are and how to jump start them in the right direction. But once that's done, the rest should follow.

Momentum and inertia are different things, as momentum is not a property of matter.

I've been thinking about what makes up a good person. 'Good' in the more archaic sense might be connotated with being generous, but that is fairly one-dimensional compared to how we throw around the word these days. Also traditionally one might define a good person as of high moral value, though I feel there's been a strong permeation of relative morality in atleast the world I live in so that definition doesn't hold much meaning.

I guess I would say it is someone who is kind-spirited, both well-intentioned and sensible, and has a positive outlook. Maybe that's an odd combination of characteristics, but it sounds right to me. And as broad of a definition as it might seem, I feel like the times have been few and far between that I've met someone of good standards. It's really quite refreshing.

Do you ever think about how ridiculous our petroleum based fuel system is? The crude is pumped from somewhere in the Middle East and then shipped over here in a giant tanker. Then it's refined at some plant in the middle of the country, only to be driven in a gas tanker to be delivered to your local gas station. Then we have to drive to the gas station to fill up. Every single part of the process consumes it's own product along the way.

What if you had a solar panel that fed into a battery during the day, which charged your car overnight at your house? Beast.
