Anybody listening?

You and I long to live like the wind upon the water
If we close our eyes, we'll maybe realize
There's more to life than what we have known

And I can't believe, I've spent so long
Living lies, I knew were wrong inside
I've just begun to see the light

Long ago there was a dream, had to make a choice or two
Leaving all I loved behind, for what nobody knew
Stepped out on the stage, alive under lights and judging eyes
Now the applause has died and I can dream again

Is there anybody listening?
Is there anyone that sees what's going on?
Read between the lines, criticize the words they're selling
Think for yourself and feel the walls become sand beneath your feet

Feel the breeze, time's so near, you can almost taste the freedom
There's a warm wind from the south, hoist the sail and we'll be gone
By morning, this will all seem like a dream
And if I don't return to sing the song, maybe just as well
I've seen the news and there's not much I can do alone

Is there anybody listening?
Is there anyone who smiles without a mask?
What's behind the words? Images, they know will please us
I'll take what's real, bring up the lights

Is there anybody listening?
Is there anyone that sees what's going on?
Read between the lines, criticize the words they're selling
Think for yourself and feel the walls become sand beneath your feet

Close your eyes

Animal cruelty

NOTHING in this world PISSES ME OFF MORE than cruelty to animals. I'm a very proud vegetarian. I recently saw this video on the Chinese fur trade and the "methods" they used to remove the fur from these animals.  I saw many animals skinned of their fur while still alive! One raccoon after being skinned alive and tossed aside, was able to lift its head and look into the camera. FIND ME THAT MOTHERFUCKER that skins these animals alive and BRING HIM TO ME IMMEDIATELY!  Or any of these low live pieces of shit that do this kind of work, I would LOVE to have a talk with them!! FUCK! Educate yourselves people!! learn where your food comes from!! Quit turning a blind eye to feed your fat ass and your obese children. LEARN SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR FOOD!!

Family and living in the same city.

There is a HUGE misconception about living in the same area/city as family. I live in a huge, amazing city...and I share that same city with 2 adult cousins and an Aunt. Part of this misconception is certainly my fault. I assumed that just because they're family and we all live somewhat close, there would be gatherings, visits, lunches....but i was wrong. Now you have to understand I FULLY understand that this is some of my fault, I too could call or stop over...but I never hear my phone ringing either.

Anxiety.....

Is a dirty, dirty bitch. it literally affects every minute of my day...everyday.

Teeth...and sometimes, the lack of.

Going to the dentist wasn't exactly a big deal growing up in my house. I don't even remember going to the dentist till my late teens...maybe very early 20's, so the whole "proper dentistry" habits weren't exactly instilled in us as kids. Common sense should usually tell us to brush our teeth on a regular basis, but that doesn't mean we/I exactly always do that. I'm currently going though some fairly serious dental issues,cavities,missing teeth,etc. Most of the issues I have with my teeth are basically my fault, but it would have been nice to have some regular checkups as a kid. But I can't blame my parents....times were tough, and money wasn't always there, I get it.
So next Friday the 17th, I will have 3 teeth pulled, 2 of which are currently broken, and 2 fillings. But that's only the start I assure you....more stories after then.

Women..............

Women usually get uncomfortable when men they don't know look at them or check them out. Well first thing you should do is not wear shorts/pants with a word across your sweet ass in big bold letters....like "Sassy" or "Hot"....I'm just saying.............

Vegetarians

I get alot of crap for being a Vegetarian. Usually they snicker or laugh...most always they say it's "weird". But I'd be willing to bet that if most would expand their little brains...just a bit, they'd see it's not so bad. My cholesterol has improved, so has my blood pressure, and I've even lost some weight. Sure, it tends to be a bit tricky when i go out to eat, and you have to be alot more creative when cooking at home, but it has been alot of fun. I found out I like broccoli, and alot of the "fake" foods like veggie burgers, "fakon" (bacon) and even the veggie ham is very good! I've done alot of research of foods, fast foods, etc. Altering your diet just a little, getting your real meat from a better source and STOP eating fast foods, would greatly improve your overall health. Any questions...please ask!

Things that need to be said.....

It things I post here, I'm sure will rub a few of you wrong, but they are strictly my OPINIONS. I will try to be fair, and always honest. I will write often..and always sporadicly.I see and think way too many things on a very daily basis, sometimes hourly!  Enjoy and always leave feedback.
