"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power."
-Alan Cohen
i need the power to change.
"This is how change happens, though. It is a relay race, and we're very conscious of that, that our job really is to do our part of the race, and then we pass it on, and then someone picks it up, and it keeps going. And that is how it is. And we can do this, as a planet, with the consciousness that we may not get it, you know, today, but there's always a tomorrow."-Alice Walker
show me the sign of a better tomorrow before i fall into the unescapable pit of consuming and regretful old habits.

another heart calls
Do you remember when we didn't care?
We were just two kids that took the moment when it was there
Do you remember you at all?
Another heart calls
I remember when we stole the night
We'd lie awake dreaming 'til the sun would wash the sky
Just as soon as I see you
Didn't I didn't I tell you
As deep as I need you
You wanna leave it all
What can I do
Say it's true
Or everything that matters breaks in two
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
Talk to me
I'm throwing myself in front of you
This could be the last mistake that I would ever want to do
All I ever do is give
It's time you see my point of view
Just as soon as I see you
Didn't I didn't I tell you
As deep as I need you
You want to leave it all
What can I do?
Say it's true
Everything that matters breaks in two
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
All you want is to figure it out
And God knows I do too
What can I do
Say It's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
I'm sorry
So what?
But you don't think I've said enough
I'm sorry
I don't care
You were never there
Just as soon as I see you
Didn't I, didn't I tell you
As deep as I need you
You wanna leave it all
What can I do?
Say it's true
Everything that matters breaks in two
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you
All you want is to figure it out
And God knows I do too
What can I do?
Say it's true
I'll never ask for anyone but you

drumline practice today...1-9..not too much tends to stick in my mind from an all day @$$-beating. but today was different. i came out of practice with something jeremy said to us:
"A circle is a game of inches."
got me thinking.. alot of things in this world are comprised of circles. even the world itself is a circle. but what does that quote really mean?
in a circle, everything is perfected..no random lines, no diconnected figures. its every inch of a bended line coming together to form the definite shape. so jeremy's right. it's a game of inches. every inch has to be perfect. every aspect correctly placed in order to create a magnificient outcome:
the circle of life for example...every stage of life has to take place in order for the circle to continue. all have to live, and all have to die.
the world was made as a circular sphere for a reason. everything must coexist on the planet to achieve that harmoneous peace we long for. If one little piece is corrupted we all fall with it.
so i guess something worth while can come out of 8 hours of pain..haha..who knew..just a thought for the day =]
until next time =]

TrOUbLe
this is courtesy of "trouble" by nevershoutnever!.
-i fell in love the first time i heard it on jenna's profile =] and it made me think of a current situation. so i decided to tweak it a little bit to best suit me..here i go =P
I'm in trouble
I'm an addict I'm addicted to this boy
He's got my stomach in a knot
And my heart filled with joy
But even worst I can't stop thinking that
He's all I want and more I mean Damnn
Whats not to adore
I've been playing too much guitar
I've been listening to jazz I text so many times
He probably thinks I'm going mad
And that cellular-er
Will be the death of us I swear, I swear
And oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oooh, oooh, oooh
I'm running my mouth like he hasn't caught on
But maybe he's not
But He's so-o-o-o-o-o-o
ROCK AND ROLL
And out of my league
Is he out of my league?
Let's hope he doesn't catch on
I'm in trouble
I'm so cliche
See that word just wares me out
Makes me feel just like another girl
To laugh and joke about
But even worse I can't stop seeing him
With me in my mind
But honestly, he's a true one of a kind
I've been playing to much guitar
I've been listening to jazz
I text so many times
He probably thinks I'm going mad
And that cellular-er
Will be the death of us I swear I swear
And oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh oooh, oooh, oooh
I'm running my mouth like he hasn't caught on
But maybe he's not
But he's so-o-o-o-o-o-o
ROCK AND ROLL
And out of my league
Is he out of my league?
Let's hope he doesn't catch on
-there you have it. i think it's pretty self=explanatory =D

2009
So 2008 is finally done.
What's next? i sure as heck don't know
but i can honestly say im excited for the unknown
excited for the adventures that destiny will spit out
as we walk down our path of life.
i'm not scared. for once i'm confident in the friends i'm entering this new year with.
so this post is dedicated to my few friends that have made my past year and life worth living.
2009 will be our year to show the world that we will not cower in the face of our problems but confide in the strong pillars of our friendships
you guys have made me see the beauty in life
through the good times and bad your presence has made an unforgettable difference in my life.
I raise my glass to you this coming year and journey that we will embark on to find ourselves.
best wishes to everyone in '09.
