The Single Best Story of All Time

TODAY. RIGHT NOW. RIGHT HERE. THIS IS IT, THE MOMENT YOU’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR. PREPARE YOURSELVES. The comedy oriented blog post of a life time is in its early stages of birth. Like a supernova about to shine its brightest, the Wright Brothers on the verge of mastering their flying machine, and water being bottled for the first time ever, this bang of a post is about to be so big they might even have to rename the show. When I first heard last week that it was finally time to let our creative minds dip their long, neatly clipped toes into the hot springs of humor  and dabble with all the endless possibilities it would present, I became overwhelmed. Like seriously, how often do we really get to write about ANYTHING as long as it’s somewhat comically based and doesn’t not un-deter from not at all making any anti- nonsensical statements. This actually is too good to be true. I feel like I should be out standing on a cliff somewhere overlooking a vast herd of majestic wildebeest as I write this in the vibrant Tanzanian sunset just radiating a valiant aura of epic proportions while being narrated by James Earl Jones (Now that’s a descriptor sentence). With every strike my fingers make on the keyboard of my 2015 Microsoft Surface 3, a golden bolt of lightning should stream out across the sky as the Old Spice guy’s face appears and says something like “Believe in your smellf”. Yes, its that big of a deal.

 Well anyway, enough about me. TIME FOR THE POST. Seriously, it’s so good. I can’t wait until you guys read it. UNLEASH THE STORY (Like the Kracken from “Clash of the Titans” but instead of a giant Octopus monster/demi-god it’s a blog post). PRETTY SIMILAR THOUGH IN MY OPINION. Ok, well here goes. I am now officially beginning my ascent to comedic blog infamy. It took me almost 3 full days of intense meditation to actually even come up with this idea too. That’s really the secret behind finding inspiration to write (Fun Fact). An intimate, uplifting meditation session followed by a good hearty bowl of Raisin Bran, an integral part of any balanced breakfast, will send the brain into a maniacally unstoppable rampage of writing genius. In fact, I’m eating a

bowl of those miracle flakes right now. One could probably pin that as the catalyst behind how astronomically astounding this blog post is going to be. Now that the feature presentation is about to begin, a few questions need to be addressed beforehand.

1.      Yes, this story is, in fact, based off of true events surrounding my life.

2.     Yes, this story is, in fact, excruciatingly embarrassing for myself and may or may not include tremendous amounts of nudity.

3.     Yes, this story is, in fact, not available to the public anywhere else, although purchase of said story is possible. Price negotiable.

4.     Yes, this story is, in fact, NOW for real this time, about to begin.

HERE WE GO…

Obsession with the Unexpected

To be obsessed with something is to have an absolute undying passion for whatever that something is. So instead of quickly deciding to write either about baseball or eating or Star Wars, which are like the 3 great loves I have in this world, I decided to delve a little deeper into the inner-sanctum of my mind and uncover another obsession of mine. It didn’t take too long for me to realize that I also have a passion for adventure. No matter what it is that I wind up doing on any given day, I crave excitement. Fortunately, for me, I have no problem at all finding it. From the moment I was born, I like to believe that I was graced with the ability to look at something from an extremely different angle than most other people. Constantly, I’ve found ways to do something out of the ordinary from most people. I am a trailblazer.

Yes, this obsession with the unordinary can, has, and will most likely to continue to blow up in my face from time to time, but I wouldn’t want it any other way. The way I see it, every time something unplanned or unexpected happens, I’m being given one hell of an opportunity. The gods themselves are reaching down to me, tapping me on the shoulder, and saying “Here son, you see that party bus over there on the other side of the street? Go have yourself a seat inside and see where it takes you,”. (True story, lets just say spring break was great even though I was not able to go to the Meek Mill concert it wound up driving to) Stories like these are ones I’ll be able to look back on as an old man and tell my grandkids without a regret in the world. A life filled with regret is one not worth living. Having the ability to look back on my life knowing I lived it the best way I could is something that has always been extremely important to me.

My obsession with the unordinary drives me to constantly explore new places. I want to see everything and do everything basically all the time. This drive causes me to constantly plan new trips with my friends to unseen places such as big cities down to even just a new restaurant that supposedly has a good sandwich. The potential for something exciting to happen is always at your fingertips and I strive to maximize the potential for something unexpected to happen. I find that this can help make even the most uneventful of days more exciting.

I have always lived my life with the mentality that any given moment could be your last. An obsession for adventure and excitement has helped me create a non-stop plethora of unexpected moments in which I’ve created a wonderful memory. Living my life to its absolute fullest will always be a main priority of mine and obsessing over making the next great chapter in the story of my life will help to ensure that I accomplish just that.
