I am Rockie Coppolella. Thanks for visiting my time warped web page. It is dedicated to discovery and enlightenment. No one comes into life the same way they leave it. Life is in session, so be a pit-bull and charge ahead fearlessly taking the world by storm. Whatever happens next just don't let go!

If our wisdom were an ocean, then it would only be a raindrop in the bucket of true knowledge. Worldwide problems and human suffering are often seen as intractable issues requiring complex solutions. Things need not be so dire, but as a species we have to wake up to the reality, that we are all on this small blue planet together, with nowhere to run and nowhere to hide.
Cowering fear never helped anyone to achieve a purpose except to cover up till the storm passed. That's OK to not charge boldly ahead into a hail of bullets. Just use your common sense and do what is right for you, and if you have any aces maybe time to start think about playing them before touring the casino and leaving empty pocketed and heart-broken, again!
