What is it to be blank, to be boring, to be absent minded? Does it mean that something crucial is missing, something so important that when deemed blank there is  nothing to survive off.  Truly blank is the greatest of complements. When someone believes that there is the potential of becoming anything, or completing any accomplishment known to man. Blank is truly the only thing that everyone once was and wishes to become. What is it about infinite opportunity that is so appealing? Why disrupt the purity at which everything has from the start?  Blank is truly experiencing the infinite world of opportunity, where anything can become everything, and everything can turn into anything.

            Blank is a unique word, one that has no comparison. It is a word compiled of interest, intrigue, and intensity. The four letters B L A N K create something mysteriously magnificent. They are pieced together sparking curiosity that cuts the cats in two. Leaving the imagination limitless on the ideas that one can call their own. Blank is truly the beginning of everything. Before there was anything, everything was blank. Blank is the jumping off point at which everyone starts.

            Everything tends to start with a blank slate, and sometimes people get a second chance and they get to wipe off all that has been done, and begin a new with a clean slate. Everything has been washed away and they have reverted to what is truly pure and trouble free. With the aspect of absence, becoming blank is an unrivaled opportunity where anyone, or anything can use the delete key and remove all the wrong that they have done. The five hundred-word papers can reset and change back to their most pure  form, one that cannot be judged for what it is, but be inspired into becoming something great. Blank has more potential than any one-person, already begun life, or any halfway-completed essay. 

Being Blank is truly the virtue that any person, place or thing aspires to be. At the beginning of everything there are truly options. Infinite opportunity is open to any one, or any thing that has yet to venture out in to the world and begin inscribing what may be the track that, someone or something is connected for the entirety of its existence on planet earth. The minute a five year old child steps into his kindergarten class room, he will be directed into attending school for the following 13 years. The minute a word is written on a piece paper it is destined to become an article of some sort. Whether it is a five-year-old’s first letters or if it is the Declaration of Independence that piece of paper fated to become one of the trillions of articles written by the human race. The five-year-old will soon become one of the billions of people writing those articles. Whether it is in a fifth period Essay Fundamentals class or inscribing the law for a new society on some remote island, his life will be full of disrupting the unique emptiness of that special blank piece of paper.
