Safe and Sound

"I remember tears streaming down your face When I said, I'll never let you go When all those shadows almost killed your light. I remember you said, Don't leave me here alone. But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight. Just close your eyes The sun is going down You'll be alright No one can hurt you now Come morning light You and I'll be safe and sound"
-Taylor Swift

Only Human

As I'm sitting in my thinky chair, I'm thinking about people who MUST be better than everyone. They MUST outdo all of them. You don't HAVE to. Its a choice that people make. Sometimes for the worse. Do you really want to go down in history as the person who ate 50 hot-dogs in less than 12 minutes. I hope thats an automatic no from all of you. You want to go down in history as the person who changed America. Think about it! Choice:
1. Say a swear every 3 seconds, wear tight jeans, call everybody that doesn't agreee with you a b****
2. Be comfortable, compliment everyone on SOMETHING, and make the most of every second as if you were to die the next?

Whats the better option? You're choice. What do you want to do with your life...? I'm taking JFKs quote, changing it a little, and giving creddit to him. Ask not what others can do for you, ask wht you can do for others.
     Today is the 50th anneversary of his innoguration. He is my all time FAVORITE president, next to Lincolon. He belived in equal rights for everyone. So did MLK. I don't think that people should be excluded because of thier a)race b)abilities c)Appearence.
     Tomorrow I'm heading off to a weekend with my best friend. She doesn't quite get all of this yet, but she's getting there. Anyway, She has a disability, But IT DOESN'T STOP HER!!!!!! She was born with no left hand. People pick on her and taunt her, but she's one of the strongest (mentally) people that I know. And one of the Happiest. Point being is that theres a whole weekend dedicated to people like her. Some with NO ARMS! When I arrive, I start to feel so bad for all of these kids and adults. But then, that felling goes away, as I realize they are all just like us. Normal people, living normal lives. Some of them are mosre spectacular. Like Jeff. He's like Katie (My friend), no hand. That doesn't stop him from being one of the most amazing guitarists I know. Last year he even invited us (Katie and I) to go to his house and do a recording session with him! He lives in Connecticut, so, we couldn't, But he is so kind!
     They all get it. They get the main goal in life. They understand that not everyone understands. They know that people discriminate them and put them underneath themselves. They don't care! Happiness is an ocean for them! Well, I bid you two adeau!


                                                                      "But of all these friends and lovers
                                                          There is no one compares with you.
                                                        And these memories lose their meaning
                                                        When I think of love as something new.
                                                        Though I know I'll never lose affection
                                                        For people and things that went before
                                                      I know I'll often stop and think about them
                                                                In my life, I love you more."
                                                              - - -Beatles "In My Life"

Oh, and these boys and girls, they are more than only human.


I woke up this morning,
Smiled with the rising sun,
Three little birds,
Perched on my doorstep,
Singing their sweet song,
A melody pue and true,
 This is my message to you ooh-ooh
-Bob Marley
Three little birds

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side.
The summer's gone and all the flowers are dying
Yet you, yet you, must go and I must bide.
(Thats to Katies dad...his favorite song)

Well, G'night! And think about the lyrics to row row row your boat...just think about the real meaning of them
