"TREAT PEOPLE AS IF THEY WERE WHAT THEY OUGHT TO BE AND YOU MAY HELP THEM TO BECOME WHAT THEY ARE CAPABLE OF BEING!"
- Johann Wolfgang van Goethe
Fun people who are not distracted by their ego's....
I know we have all spent so much of our lives figuring out what makes us special and unique but I think it is time we started becoming aware of just how much the same we all really areand how wonderful that feels to know...

"I See Who You Are"
Bjork (album Volta)
I see who you are
behind the skin and the muscles
I see who you are
and when you'll get older later
I will see the same girl
the same soul
lioness, fireheart
passionate lover
and afterwards
later this century
when you and I have
become corpses
let's celebrate now
all this flesh on our bones
let me push you
up against me
tightly
and enjoy every bit of you
la la la-la la la...
let's celebrate now
all this flesh on our bones
let me push you
up against me
tightly
let's celebrate now
all this flesh on our bones
and enjoy every bit of you
la la la-la la la...
I see who you are
"Origin Of Love"
from Hedwig & the Angry Inch
When the earth was still flat,
And the clouds made of fire,
And mountains stretched up to the sky,
Sometimes higher,
Folks roamed the earth
Like big rolling kegs.
They had two sets of arms.
They had two sets of legs.
They had two faces peering
Out of one giant head
So they could watch all around them
As they talked; while they read.
And they never knew nothing of love.
It was before the origin of love.
The origin of love
And there were three sexes then,
One that looked like two men
Glued up back to back,
Called the children of the sun.
And similar in shape and girth
Were the children of the earth.
They looked like two girls
Rolled up in one.
And the children of the moon
Looked like a fork shoved on a spoon.
They was part sun, part earth,
Part daughter, part son.
The origin of love.
Now the gods grew quite scared
Of our strength and defiance
And Thor said,
"I'm gonna kill them all
With my hammer,
Like I killed the giants."
But the Zeus said, "No,
You better let me
Use my lightning, like scissors,
Like I cut the legs off the whales
And dinosaurs into lizards."
Then he grabbed up some bolts
And he let out a laugh,
Said, "I'll split them right down the middle.
Gonna cut them right up in half."
And then storm clouds gathered above
Into great balls of fire
And then fire shot down
From the sky in bolts
Like shining blades
Of a knife.
And it ripped
Right through the flesh
Of the children of the sun
And the moon
And the earth.
And some Indian god
Sewed the wound up into a hole,
Pulled it round to our belly
To remind us of the price we pay.
And Osiris and the gods of the Nile
Gathered up a big storm
To blow a hurricane,
To scatter us away,
In a flood of wind and rain,
And a sea of tidal waves,
To wash us all away,
And if we don't behave
They'll cut us down again
And we'll be hopping around on one foot
And looking through one eye.
Last time I saw you
We had just split in two.
You was looking at me.
I was looking at you.
You had a way so familiar,
But I could not recognize,
Cause you had blood on your face;
I had blood in my eyes.
But I could swear by your expression
That the pain down in your soul
Was the same as the one down in mine.
That's the pain,
Cuts a straight line
Down through the heart,
We called it love.
So we wrapped our arms around each other,
Trying to shove ourselves back together.
We was making love,
Making love.
It was a cold dark evening,
Such a long time ago,
When by the mighty hand of Jove,
It was the sad story
How we became
Lonely two-legged creatures,
It's the story of
The origin of love.
That's the origin of love.
"Lazy Day"
Spanky and Our Gang
Blue sky, sunshine
What a day to take a walk in the park
Ice cream, daydream
Till the sky becomes a blanket of stars
What a day for picking
Daisies and lots of red balloons
And what a day for holdin' hands
And bein' with you
Lazy day just right for lovin' away
Lazy day made for a stroll in the lane
Baby you and me
(You and me)
And a honey bee
'Neath a shady tree
Lazy day, lazy day,
Lazy day for you and me
Blue sky, sunshine
Flowers bloomin', squirrels sayin' hello
Rowboats, bird notes
People smilin' everywhere that we go
What a day to be together
And what a sky of blue
And what a day for thinkin' right out loud
I love you
Lazy day just right for lovin' away
Lazy day made for a stroll in the lane
Baby you and me
(You and me)
And a honey bee
'Neath a shady tree
Lazy day, lazy day,
Lazy day for you and me
"The Promise"
When in Rome
If you need a friend, don't look to a stranger,
You know in the end, I'll always be there.
But when you're in doubt, and when you're in danger,
Take a look all around, and I'll be there.
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you I will.
When your day is through, and so is your temper,
You know what to do, I'm gonna always be there.
Sometimes if I shout, it's not what's intended.
These words just come out, with no gripe to bear.
I'm sorry, but I'm just thinking of the right words to say.
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be.
But if you'll wait around awhile, I'll make you fall for me,
I promise you, I promise you...
"Phone Call"
The Faint
i've seen you a while now.
long enough to be close.
there's some things about you.
that i should know
(i still don't)
with all the questions we didn't ask.
our conversations could never last.
our moments alone were scarce and few.
it was just easier to hide the truth
if all of our secrets were exposed.
would we be sharing the same bed.
how 'bout if i broke the silence first.
did i hear what you're thinking in your head.
i need to be talked to, i need to be touched.
i need you to hold me, i need to feel loved.
and if i could open up to you.
maybe i could open you up
but instead i got the phone call.
just thought i'd call to let you know.
i wanna be alone all night again.
with all the questions we didn't ask.
our conversations could never last.
"Peace Train"
Cat Stevens
Now I've been happy lately, thinking about the good things to come.
And I believe it could be, something good has begun.
Oh I've been smiling lately, dreaming about the world as one.
And I believe it could be, some day it's going to come.
Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train.
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again.
Now I've been smiling lately, thinking about the good things to come.
And I believe it could be, something good has begun.
Oh peace train sounding louder.
Glide on the peace train.
Yes, peace train holy roller.
Everyone jump upon the peace train.
Get your bags together, go bring your good friends too.
Cause it's getting nearer, it soon will be with you.
Now come and join the living, it's not so far from you.
And it's getting nearer, soon it will all be true.
Now I've been crying lately, thinking about the world as it is.
Why must we go on hating, why can't we live in bliss.
Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train.
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again.
"Never My Love"
The Association
You ask me if there'll come a time
When I grow tired of you.
Never my love...
Never my love
You wonder if this heart of mine
Will lose its desire for you.
Never my love... Never my love
What makes you think love will end
When you know that my whole life depends
On you (on you)...
Never my love... Never my love
You say you fear I'll change my mind
And I won't require you.
Never my love... Never my love
How can you think love will end
When I've asked you to spend your whole life
With me (with me, with me)....

"I Will"
The Beatles
Who knows how long I've loved you,
You know I love you still,
Will I wait a lonely lifetime,
If you want me to I will.
For if I ever saw you,
I didn't catch your name,
But it never really mattered,
I will always feel the same.
Love you forever and forever,
Love you with all my heart;
Love you whenever we're together,
Love you when we're apart.
And when at last I find you,
Your song will fill the air,
Sing it loud so I can hear you,
Make it easy to be near you,
For the things you do endear you to me,
oh, you know I will.
I will.
"Take a Giant Step"
Taj Mahal
Though you failed at love and lost
And sorrow's turned your heart to frost.
I will mend your heart again.
Remember the feeling as a child
When you woke up and morning smiled.
Its time its time its time you felt like that again.
There is just no percentage in remembering the past.
Its time you learned to live again and love at last.
Come with me leave your yesterday your yesterday behind.
And take a giant step outside your mind.
You stare at me with disbelief.
You say for you there's no relief.
But girl I swear it won't do you no harm.
Don't sit there in your lonely room
Just looking back inside that gloom.
Mama that's not were you belong.
Come with me I'll take you where the taste of life is green.
N' Everyday everyday hold on woman just got to be seen.
Come with me leave your yesterday your yesterday behind.
And take a giant step outside your mind.
Though you failed at love and lost
And sorrow's turned your heart to frost.
I will mend your heart again.
Remember the feeling as a child
When you woke up and morning smiled.
Its time its time its time you felt like that again.
There is just no percentage in remembering the past.
Its time you learned to live again and love at last.
Come with me leave your yesterday your yesterday behind.
And take a giant step outside your mind
from: "Dear Mama"
TuPac
Pour out some liquor and I reminsce, cause through the drama
I can always depend on my mama
And when it seems that I'm hopeless
You say the words that can get me back in focus
When I was sick as a little kid
To keep me happy there's no limit to the things you did
And all my childhood memories
Are full of all the sweet things you did for me
And even though I act craaazy
I gotta thank the Lord that you made me
There are no words that can express how I feel
You never kept a secret, always stayed real
And I appreciate, how you raised me
And all the extra love that you gave me
I wish I could take the pain away
If you can make it through the night there's a brighter day
Everything will be alright if ya hold on
It's a struggle everyday, gotta roll on
And there's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to show you that I understand
You are appreciated
"The thought manifests as the word ;
The word manifests as the deed,
The deed develops into habit,
and the habit hardends into character
So watch the thought, and its ways with much care
Let all your thoughts and intent spring from compassion and love,
Born out of concern for all of life, great and small.
As the shadow follows the body,
As we think, so, we become! "
-the Dhammapada
