Tower of Power

Tower of Power. Reach for new heights. Soar, Climb, aim for the sky, the stars. I don't know. What do you say about a picture of a tower. It's all about perspective? Where you are and where you want to be. One step at a time will help you reach your goals. Every little step you take will help you reach greatness. It is all a bunch of bull. I could go on and on (I think I may have), spewing these hallmark card ideas. I will spare you more of my sarcasm. I am at a point this week where it doesn't seem to matter how hard you work, how important you may be. Certain things and people stand out more. Have you ever known a time where the quiet, smart, studious thinker stood out and elevated up from the masses. Think about high school because it is kind of the same. I may be invaluable in a certain instance but if I'm not loud, obnoxious, or just flashy, I will continue to go unnoticed. That is where I am at right now. I know, I'm a little frustrated and bitter right now, but believe me, I am reaching for the stars. (or at least the top of the tower at Shawnee Mission Park.)

A well-ordered life is like climbing a tower; the view halfway up is better than the view from the base, and it steadily becomes finer as the horizon expands.
