Tales of the Heartland: Jon turns 21

Jon and his best buddies from Dakota High School celebrate at his 21st birthday party at Cimino's Little Italy in Freeport, IL, on May 30, 2012.

My meaning of life.....

"It's only in the mysterious equation of love that any logical reasons can be found." (Said by Princeton mathemetician John Nash during his Nobel Peace Price acceptance speech. Source: A Beautiful Mind.)

And yet another take on love:
"Your heart starts to feel like an overcrowded lifeboat. You throw out your pride to keep it afloat, and your self-respect and your independence. After awhile you start throwing people out-- your friends, everyone you used to know. And it's still not enough. The lifeboat is still sinking, and you know it's going to take you down with it. ... I think that's why I'm sick of love." Said by Karla, in Shantaram, a novel by Gregory Roberts.

“Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing.”
― John Stuart Mill, Inaugural Address Delivered to the University of St Andrews, 2/1/1867

"And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it." - Roald Dahl
