Helping a Friend

I started this account so that I could post a comment to a friend's blog, but if this holds the same attraction for me that MySpace seems to for other teenagers, I may end up continuing what I have started.
I am a high school senior, currently attending a Jesuit high school in the Bay Area, California. As my blog title indicates, my passion right now is pursuing enlightenment. I eagerly look forward to each opportunity for the wealth of knowledge that it portends, especially interactions with my friend "Optimystic Bloghead." If you visit his blog, you'll begin to get a sense of why.
Life is exciting to me, and I am worried about missing a moment. Ever since I discovered Emerson and Thoreau I have had a profound respect and love for nature, and an observation of the interconnectedness of the universe. The depth and intricacy of life and its processes is awe-inspiring to me, and I am anxious to learn as much I can about it as I can, in any way that I can.
Life has only just begun, but it's already a lot of fun.
That's all for now.
