Thought

Reading furnishes the mind only with materials for knowledge; it is thinking that makes what we read ours.
~ John Locke ~

This is the reading section where I've posted a few pieces which are either profound and make for good reading, or are simply informative.

Quotes

I love quotes, and I have collected a horde of them which have proven to be the most significant or profound... or just funny.

Desiderata

An insightful poem which complements the Modern Paradox very well. Should be mandatory reading for anyone who's life seems to be going wrong, who doesn't know where their life is even going, or just who needs their spirits lifted. In other words, mandatory reading for everyone.

Modern Paradox

I originally received this as an e-mail. A thought provoking message about modern times and society's direction. Were all the tradeoffs worth it?

Existentialism and Human Emotions

This is a brief overview and analysis of Jean-Paul Sartre's compelling philosophy of existentialism. Copyright 1993, Compact Classics, Inc.

Sports Injuries: prevention, treatment and rehabilitation

This is a set of brief informational pages on sports injuries. Pictures and greater detail on treatment, rehab techniques and injuries may be added some day.
