Peoples of Earth, A Purging

Listen, you can choose to have a good time or not. If you wanna dwell on stuff that makes you feel bad, you can, but you'll feel like crap and end up crying yourself to sleep at night. Yeah, there's a time for that. There's a lot more time to enjoy all the great things we're fortunate enough to have. Like this beautiful day we just had here in nashville. A big magical backdrop we don't even understand. The gift of friendship. Memories, good and bad, that make up who we are. Both sides of our brain that engage in an ever-poetic back-and-forth until the day we perish. A wealth of knowledge so extensive that you can spend your whole life feeding your brain and excersizing your imagination. Shoes. Your limitations. The things you don't understand. For all this I give thanks to whom thanks shall be given.
This has been an exciting couple of days in blog land. I just want to say it's really touching to hear such nice words from my friends. Seth, Kevin, Noah, Jacqueline, you are kind people. I'd like to say that I really love the earth and all these great humans that live in it. Thanks universe earth-bird!

This is really the truth, not some fabricated hallmark card for the holidays...And finally, I would like to quote something that my best friend in the whole earth said tonight Because it's beautiful and nearly brought me to tears.

"...there is distortion in our government. there is distortion in the world. there is distortion in the poor. distortion in the famous and wealthy. in homosexuals in heterosexuals. in liberals and conservatives. in christians and athiests. there is distortion.there is distortion in each and everyone of us. in all of us there is this common thread.

there is love in our government. there is love in the world. there is love in the poor there is love in the famous and wealthy. there is love in homosexuals and love in heterosexuals. love in liberals and love in conseravtives. love in
christians and love in athiests. there is love. there is love in each and everyone of us in all of us there is this common thread..." -Carolyn Benedict
