Renewed senses

Bristol thus far has been kind to me. Since I got back from my big American dream. I feel as though I have a renewed sense of purpose and that I am on the right track to do and achieve. It's not a selfish sense but one of learning, understanding and appreciating a particular system which can be replicated elsewhere back in my home country. I am one of those sad people who is overly proud of his country and the more I live and work in the western world the more I want to go back and establish certain systems for the good of my countrymen.

When one buys a coffee or a burger from their local Starbucks or MacDonalds, one is a consumer of a simplified system. They didn't reinvent coffee or the or the burger, they just re-packaged it. I'm working for a company that created a system to distribute vehicles to a specific demographic of society in the United Kingdom. There's nothing amazing to it - that's why I like it. It's a grand business operating in the billions of pounds but it's main emphasis is on the individual person who they serve. In as much as it may be an unknown capitalist giant, it has a greater good and an ambition to serve.


The time there expires in a month but I believe I'll be back. I'm reconsidering what path to take with my honours degree. Should I go on to do a straight-laced masters and perfect my mathematics on should I commit myself to a strigent graduate program and return to the classroom to do my MBA? Hope beckons and glory shines. Regardless it's all going to be Ad Definitum Finem.
