Freedom at Last

Oh.........Yeah.......... To be free again
that just sums it all up

Just open me up and let me out!

It's nice to know what ppl are talking about

The sky is something you need to see every once in a while,
otherwise you'll become a deaf mute

Road Block

When one door of happiness closes, another opens;

But often we look so long at the closed door that
we do not see the one which has been opened for us.

-Helen Keller

We need to take the blinders off and keep our eyes open or life will pass us by

In Search of Happiness

Happiness:

We rarely feel it.
I would buy it,
beg it,
steal it,
Pay in coins of dripping blood
For this one transcendent good.

-Amy Lowell

A Picture is worth a Thousand Words

What do you feel when you look at this pic?

A warm tingling feeling -

is it
Love
Lust
Longing
Fulfilled
All Knowing?

How can you express in words what you see here?
Can you even describe it

In Search Of Guidance I Find...

When all is darkness and we feel our weakness and helplessness,
give us the sense of Your presence, Your love, and Your strength.

Help us to have perfect trust in Your protecting love and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry us,
for living close to You, we shall see Your hand, Your purpose, Your will through all things.

- St. Ignatius of Loyola



Oh God! Thou art the Giver of Life,
Remover of pain and sorrow,
The Bestower of happiness,

Oh! Creator of the Universe,
May we receive thy supreme sin-destroying light,
May Thou guide our intellect in the right direction.

-The Gayatri Mantra

PeOplE

People, people, people, what are we thinking???

Just what are we doing to pass the time by? Why are we constantly searching for someone to share our lives with when we know we'll just get hurt - lets face it NO ONE is perfect!!!! something is bound to go wrong sooner or later. Wouldn't it just be safer to stay out and save yourself the heartache?

Just how many couples in this world get married and expect to spend the next 80 years of their lives together??? who knows how long anything lasts in this world w/ all the shit that goes on?

Things constantly change, nothing ever stays the same. So just how can you guarantee that you'll still be together after many years to come? Or is it all just a guessing game??? - Or is it just something we DO to make the time pass by?? Something we do to fill that spare time we have

How do people JUST KNOW??
What EXACTLY is it that they know? Do they know the other person won't ever do something stupid to hurt them? Do they know their partner will always be loyal? Do they know that they will spend every free moment they have together? How can they guarantee this 'all knowing' feeling will last? Nothing stays the same. Heck even the weather can change in a split second without warning.

I just don't get it

Seriously Can I get some Peace & Quiet?

What's the deal with ppl these days... do they just not get it? I work 12 hour days - (this is NON stop work might I add!! No breaks no lunch just WORK WORK WORK). Don't get me wrong - this is exactly what I signed on for - I don't mind it one bit, but I'd like to be able to come home after these crazy days to relax on my couch and not have to think. but i don't even have time to do that.

I just want certain ppl to understand just what my day consists of, and how it's seriously non-stop action, and when I get home i'd like to have some time to myself - to some ppl that's just too much to ask for. I'd like to be able to go out but I'm to exhausted to get in the car again after driving 30mins through rush hour to get home to eat dinner, cuz you know i'm starving by 8 pm. Then i'd like to rip off my work clothes and throw on pj's cuz the threads are just to constraining. i barely have enough time to eat dinner before i have to clean up and then make a lunch to take for the next day. Also i have pets which some ppl don't realize are hard work to take care of but somehow i do it with the help of some family members. somewhere in between all that commotion i'd like to see my b/f for a minute before i have to get ready for bed and then start the whole day over again.

is it really too much to ask for other people to be free for those couple of spare hours that i have free everyday? I don't think everyone is as busy as i am - so is it really that hard for others to reserve 2 hours at the end of the day to be able to see me??? Seriously if ppl are already complaining they never get to see me wouldn't they be more than willing to want to see me any chance they get?

Seriously I just don't get it - am i really asking too much from ppl?

Create a Day

Wouldn't it be great if one day we could wake up and everything would be the same. we all looked alike and wore the same clothes, same hair, drove the same car, ate the same food, had the same EVERYTHING? wouldn't life be simpler? that way ppl wouldn't have anything to fight and dissagree about - if everyone thought the same way we'd be like machines all running off the mainframe. So if one person malfunctioned and had a bad day - we all followed. This way there'd be no violence b/c ppl wouldn't have their own opinions and want to pick fights and find a need to compete with each other to be "Better"! This way if we all looked alike we wouldn't have ppl giving us the once over when we walked by and shuddering and thinking unkind thoughts to themselves. Who needs freedoM? just what comes along wtih getting this previledge. - is it a blessing or a curse???
