I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult. I just want one thing from this life and thats a happy ending. I doubt I will be lucky enough to see that though. "Wishing for the best and expecting the worst" has always been a saying that stuck. To see my family and friends make it in this world would be a wonderful thing, so striking and powerful, hopefull is how I will stay. After all.. its under my skin..
I'm afraid that it's not one just one person bearing the weight of the world anymore.. the world bear's our weight and will until we cease to exist.

People need stories more than bread itself.. they teach us how to live.. and why.

I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. and maybe we'll never know most of them. but even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there....
Laugh as much as you breathe and love as long as you live. I would be happy keeping who I know now, forever, but without new people to meet.. life becomes rather boring. It would be quite an extraordinary day when all your old friends came over for some coffee.. but hey.. I like a challenge so give me your best shot world.Be kind. Be generous. But NEVER, lose yourself.
The difference between a moral man and a man of honor is that the latter regrets a discreditable act, even when it has worked and he has not been caught. -Mencken

We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature. -American History X
