Libertas


I still am in awe that out my balcony are mountains that never stop.  It is indescribable.  There really is no place like San Marino.  I am grateful to have a lineage of people who fight for their freedom and keep their liberty theirs!  The ancient land of liberty is where my roots are.  No wonder I don't like to be restricted/confined.  I make my own rules and I live by them until I change them (and it can change at any moment).  Everyone has that power, just accept what comes with that power.  The challenge is to balance what is yours to fight for and what isn't.  As well as how to fight each battle.  Some require determination while others require patience.  First you must know your tools and their applications.  What makes it difficult is that as you develop, your tools become modified as well as the application of them.  You must always keep track of the ever evolving flux of your existence and understand that it is never complete.  A quote that I find inspiring: "Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody expects of you. Never excuse yourself."
