I don`t feel wronged by my upbringing, because my parents taught me about honor, fair-play, self respect, and the golden rule (thanks mom and dad, for the good work ethic teachings, too!). My parents were very old-school but never abusive. I had read the bible as a child and had a lot of time to think about it. More thinking and living just led to the inability to believe. Life is freakin precious! i try to live as if this is the only life i`ll have (because i think it is!)

tis a great song! :)

wow....
i was raised super-religious, and it never resonated within me.
finding that religion did not make any true sense to me,,,was a gradual, painful thing.

ah, yes, that`s their thought process. too bad some can`t let a person be in charge of their own spirit. it`s truly terrible that these things go on. piled on top of all the other chit that goes on in this world.

murderous primitive beliefs (by whomever) are so beyond me.

oh lord, where am i going to stockpile some food and water.
forget gasoline,,,,i don`t own any firearms

who mentioned all the planets?
this globe has warmed and cooled so much in the years of its existence.
who said humans would be the last to inhabit this planet?
as the earth warms, life will endure,,,,just a different type. we are destined to become extinct, no big surprise there.

true love means embracing all good souls, regardless of looks.

i don`t think the race issue will end,, it`s too ingrained, into too many. some can see people as they are, and some will remain brainwashed. love, love and brotherhood is wonderful. beautiful kids? yes, lovely. we must learn to view the plain as beautiful, as well.

Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows that the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died

Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long stem rose
Everybody knows

Everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that you've been faithful
Ah give or take a night or two
Everybody knows you've been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

And everybody knows that it's now or never
Everybody knows that it's me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
Ah when you've done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old black joe's still pickin' cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows

And everybody knows that the plague is coming
Everybody knows that it's moving fast
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
Are just a shining artifact of the past
Everybody knows the scene is dead
But there's gonna be a meter on your bed
That will disclose
What everybody knows

And everybody knows that you're in trouble
Everybody knows what you've been through
From the bloody cross on top of calvary
To the beach of malibu
Everybody knows it's coming apart
Take one last look at this sacred heart
Before it blows
And everybody knows

Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Oh everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows

Everybody knows

I Am The Highway Lyrics - Audioslave


Pearls and swine bereft of me
long and weary my road has been
i was lost in the cities
alone in the hills
no sorrow or pity
for anything i feel yea

i am not your rolling wheels
i am the highway
i am not your carpet ride
i am the sky

friends and liars
don't wait for me
i'll get on
all by myself
put millions of miles
under my heels
and still too close to you
i feel

i am not your rolling wheels
i am the highway
i am not your carpet ride
i am the sky
i am not your blowing wind
i am the lightning
i am not your autumn moon
i am the night
the night

i am not your rolling wheels
i am the highway
i am not your carpet rag
i am the sky
i am not your blowing wind
i am the lightining
i am not your autumn
i am the night

The wall on which the prophets wrote
Is cracking at the seams.
Upon the instruments of death
The sunlight brightly gleams.
When every man is torn apart
With nightmares and with dreams,
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
As silence drowns the screams.

Between the iron gates of fate,
The seeds of time were sown,
And watered by the deeds of those
Who know and who are known;
Knowledge is a deadly friend
When no one sets the rules.
The fate of all mankind I see
Is in the hands of fools.

Confusion will be my epitaph.
As I crawl a cracked and broken path
If we make it we can all sit back
And laugh.
But I fear tomorrow I'll be crying,
Yes I fear tomorrow I'll be crying.




Epitaph by King Crimson

contemplating the enormity of what that map covers,,,,just blows my simple brains out. for these few weeks i have just wished i could view Jupiter through a telescope.

'Unsung'
~Helmet

to the topic,,,all i can say is...
i`ve heard so much shi* spoken about so many races of people, by so many other races of people,,,,all i can do is walk away and stay away. i can`t make windows into people`s minds to know if they are truly bigoted or not (regardless of ties w/others). but i can tell a loving, decent person from a jacka**, and i form relationships accordingly.

Wooooo, yes! Enjoy!
