Conundrums

I have recently been offered a salary position with Valley Appraisal. As much as I wish to move to the west coast, it would seem that I can no longer justify giving up my current job. I have instead decided to remain here in Raleigh and go back to State. I am still very interested in prosthetics, though I have never been one to choose my life's path so easily. Not sure why, but my mind still races with the many possible outcomes of my existence. I've never really held belief in destiny, though at times I feel as if I were meant to do something specific. I'm sure everyone feels that way, so I chalk it up to the delusions of grandeur that plague the human race. Still, it would be nice to think that my existence has made a significant impact on this rocky little ball we call home. Something I always found interesting is the ratio of well known human beings as compared to the entire human race. In all of known human history, only a fraction have attained a level of ingenuity that sets them apart from the pack, securing those few a page in the history books. Does that mean that the majority of humans, existing or otherwise, are merely pawns? Merely genetic filler to perpetuate the species? Could it just be luck that led those great minds to discoveries that have brought mankind joy as well as sorrow? After all, no one knows the individual to first harness fire, or make a tool. Perhaps many great people have been obscured by the fog of passing time; their deeds and ideas long forgotten. Ahh well. No sense in wondering about questions that have no answers. To all my friends out there, I hope all is well. I know that I seem to vanish from time to time, but I assure I am always here if you need me. I may not be able to affect the entire population, but at least I can keep my family and friends happy and safe.
