About the red boxes...

Dear readers,

I am here to announce that the "True Grand Rapids Library Project" have been so very successful and I am so thankful for all your support and participation. I am also here to announce that the project is going to come to a close as the date of the Art Prize weeks are approaching. I need to gather the red boxes up and have them ready to be a part of the display which will be showing in the UICA (Urban Institution of Contemporary Art, the old building on Sheldon Av.) I am going to gather them all up on next Wednesday which is August 25. If you want to put few more of your thoughts in the books, please do so before it is all gathered back by me.


Thanks again for all the great entries that you all had contributed. It was a great success and it cannot had done so without each and every one of you.


Thank you so much.
and upon the gathering, I shall post all the entries on the blog so that you can read and learn it all.

I learned to live for myself, seek the unknown and you will always discover and uncover. There is so much world to see. Also, “It’s a scary business waking out your door, if you don’t keep your feet there’s no telling where you might be swept off to.” Don’t KEEP YOUR FEET!!!

In order to truly understand something you must live in it. If there is something you want to know about just immerse yourself in the culture of it. In time you ultimately will become what you wanted to understand.

Only Nick Mames knows the exact details of the agreement and the secret come to unleash anmegeddon. By him a few DBN’s @ meanwhile and he will tell you all about it!

There is no easy way to be left. No circumstances would have made heartbreak less painful. Accept responsibility for your pant in it but don’t blame yourself

It’s going to get better

All education is expensive; Whether it costs your time, money, or your ASS - spend it meaningfully. (and no one else can really tell you how much or little it means to you)

Whenever I feel sad or depressed, I just think about the men in my unit who didn’t make it out the war and then I just want to do things in their honor.
