No one gives anyone a chance anymore, we all just look at the outside and don't think about the inside
I'm as guilty as the next, hide behind a veiled pretext
try to make a note of this feeling
trust me her eyes said
her smile said it hurts sometimes
her shoulders strong and proud
and then there's love
**************************
i wished i knew what to say or to do
so i smiled and looked at a bird
maybe it's different now maybe it's the same
last year it was somebody else
if i do or if I don't
it it doesn't matter
I probably will I probably won't
******************************
i could give but i never believe
i got my own but i need something that's different
and what do we do with our mistakes
do we just throw them away?
or are they dreams of what i am or what i was?
well don't give up your dreams

bring an umbrella if it might rain
you must finsih now, just try to remember
you know who's in charge? you are

What is this, Crazy-talk ?
First things first, Doctor do no harm.
Take your time, walking in the sun
When it hurts, she'll sound the alarm
Soldier with a never fired gun

and what did you think when they pelted you with eggs and ink?

high flying leaves blowing in the breeze
nettles that sting and bumble bees
never look back

the flip side of happiness is the standard: a frolic on my own
what would you say if that was you?
look to your left now look to the right and look straight ahead
there's no one around it's all in your head
never look back
two bananas turn black
never look back

stand up tall you know you are proud
just don't you forget how you felt when you were down

perhaps the closest experience to hell is that of being abandoned by someone you thought loved you
everyone has to wrestle with why
just take your time
pressing magnolia petals in the telephone book
never look back
two bananas turn black
never look back


after you've taken a drink from the cup
you'll see everyone and everything is pointing up

Here's something kinda cool about economics and stuff.

Word for the Day from Dictionary dot com . . . it's Dot Com!
tmesis \TMEE-sis\, noun:
In grammar and rhetoric, the separation of the parts of a compound word, now generally done for humorous effect; for example, "what place soever" instead of "whatsoever place," or "abso-bloody-lutely."

Examples of tmesis:

If on the first, how heinous e'er it be,
To win thy after-love I pardon thee.
--Shakespeare, Richard II

His income-tax return, he remarked, was the "most rigged-up marole" he'd ever seen.
--Frederic Packard

In two words, im possible.
--Samuel Goldwyn

Tmesis is from Greek tmesis, "a cutting," from temnein, "to cut."

I'm figuring something out, something that in order to find the answer, you must first ask the question. I'm figuring out how to ask that question.
Question asking is an important element, and I'm practicing that more and more. That question asking practice is important because once I find my answer, I think there's gonna be a lot more questions. Part of what is involved: think about what you are thinking, how you are thinking it, and why you are thinking it.
