Life Is Green

I will, if you ask me. But I need to know you need help before I help you. I want to know there's a need for a savior, before I become one. I need to know you're crying, before I cheer you up.

Ask me anything. Ask me about anything. Ask me to do anything.

There is no way you could convince me that you have no hope. Part of being a person is having hope. Humans dream. Humans wish. I don't know anyone who wouldn't make three wishes if they found a magic lamp. If you have wishes, you have dreams, if you have dreams, you have hope, and if you have hope, you have a future. If you have a future, you have something to live for. Something more is out there. You cannot fail at life, you pass the class by showing up, there is no summer school.

"Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind. The race is long and, in the end, its only with yourself."

"Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday."

Relax, life has a way of working itself out. The ends make the means seem worth it. No, the ends make the means worth it.

View life objectively, live it subjectively.

I can't tell you what it does to a heart like mine to sit and talk with a friend. Those long, quiet talks of old left me crying in their absence. I miss those days, when there were hearts and minds to grow up with. Now it seems they all think the world has grown old, and need to reject those times of simple joy in favor of a complicated life of relationships and arguments. Agreements, disputes, friendships, hatred, and love all entangle their lives, while I lay in a field of green, still smiling, and dreaming of a day when someone will come to talk, or someone will come back from those days. I miss those days, but most of all, I miss the people from them.
"What is this? what has happened to my world?" -A variation on Matt Burch's clip on 'Escape Velocity'

DAWN, n. The time when men of reason go to bed. Certain old men prefer to rise at about that time, taking a cold bath and a long walk with an empty stomach, and otherwise mortifying the flesh. They then point with pride to these practices as the cause of their sturdy health and ripe years; the truth being that they are hearty and old, not because of their habits, but in spite of them. The reason we find only robust persons doing this thing is that it has killed all the others who have tried it.

"Two Aces from the 'Iraq Most Wanted Deck Of Cards' have been killed - Saddam's sons Uday and Qusay. A lot of people were complaining [...] about the fireworks that went off around the US when the news arrived. We should not celebrate death, ever. Though, it's interesting to note, Baghdad had it's own guns-going-off-in-the-air celebration for the same news. Maybe, just maybe, Uday and Qusay who have been reported to have commited rape, torture and murder, were bad people? Nah." -AlbinoBlackSheep Well said, ABS

We listen to our crappy music way too loud, say stuff youll never understand, and laugh at you all the time
Plus we pass regents exams with a 96 average without studying and pull 92 averages without doing any homework
But youll never see us at the parties, never see us at the dances, only once in a while are we at the mall, and never with friends
But its ok, we sit behind our screens, and type away our wisdom into profiles noone reads
We'll grow up and become programmers, engineers, teachers, or cubicle lackies
Some of us wind up as lawyers and doctors and judges, but we dont understand them at all anyway, theyre wierd even to us.

So either ask us for help, offer us help, or quit wasting your time.
Anything helps, saying hi helps us, puts a smile on a face thats staring at a screen

I never meant any harm to anyone, ever
Sorry if I pissed you off
It happens to the best of us

Never meant any harm, I'll go back to my crappy music, now.
