we love our friends
March 14, 2009
We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic cords of memory will swell when again touched as surely they will be by the better angels of our nature.
When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what’s a life, anyway? We’re born, we live a little while, we die. A spider’s life can’t help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone’s life can stand a little of that.
taylor swift and kanye west
March 9, 2009 kenye west and taylor swift this issue about kanye west and taylor swift Kanye may often be a jerk, but he got it right on the MTV Awards broadcast!!! Taylor Swift can’t sing…and has no charisma as a performer–in fact, her performances are a joke!!! The MTV Awards are fixed, and clearly Taylor Swift’s record company bought her the award. There is no contest between Taylor Swift and Beyonce. Now, if Pink, or Lady GaGa got that award…I’d have to say…”Okay, they have talent, it was probably a subjective opinion, but I can’t argue with it…as they are talented artists…technically, and artistic wise–as good as Beyonce” …but seriously, Taylor Swift can barely hold a tune–she has zero talent whatsoever–you can find a better singer at any high school, junior high, or at any mall in America. It is pretty easy. Hell, just ask most any girl that you know…to sing, and you’ll probably find that she is a better singer than Taylor Swift–let’s just be honest here–and while we are at it–it is not like Kanye said that he is pro Hitler, or was for 911, he simply said he prefered one video over another, period, let’s get some perspective here folks–it was one little “so what” moment that has been intentionally blown-out of proportion for publicity sake!!! Kanye simply pointed-out that the King, that being MTV, has no clothes…and exposed them for trying to pass-off a non talent on us…one, in the form of Taylor Swift!!!

When you have once seen the glow of happiness on the face of a beloved person, you know that a man can have no vocation but to awaken that light on the faces surrounding him; and you are torn by the thought of the unhappiness and night you cast, by the mere fact of living, in the hearts you encounter.
There is neither happiness nor misery in the world; there is only the comparison of one state to another, nothing more. He who has felt the deepest grief is best able to experience supreme happiness. We must have felt what it is to die, that we may appreciate the enjoyments of life.
One should never direct people towards happiness, because happiness too is an idol of the market-place. One should direct them towards mutual affection. A beast gnawing at its prey can be happy too, but only human beings can feel affection for each other, and this is the highest achievement they can aspire to.
Happiness is always a by-product. It is probably a matter of temperament, and for anything I know it may be glandular. But it is not something that can be demanded from life, and if you are not happy you had better stop worrying about it and see what treasures you can pluck from your own brand of unhappiness.
Often people attempt to live their lives backwards; they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want, so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then do what you need to do, in order to have what you want.
