Happiness


Happiness is the consequence of personal effort. You fight for it, strive for it,insist upon it, and sometimes travel around the world looking for it. You have to particpate relentlessly in the manifestations of your own blessings. And once you have achieved a state of happiness, you must never become lax about maintaining it, you must make a mighty effort to keep swimming upward into the happiness forever, to stay afloat on top of it. If you don't, you will leak away your innate contentment.

New History



Sometimes the past is something you just can't let go of, sometimes the past is something we'll do anything to forget and sometimes we learn something new about the past, that changes everything we know about the present.

Invest In Love


They say the bigger your investment, the bigger your return.
But you have to be willing to take a chance. You have to understand you might lose it all.
If you take that chance, if you invest wisely, the pay off might just suprise you.

It doesn't hurt...

I know your good
I know your right
I know you mean the best
everytime you stop by
dont know what to say
or know how to act
cause i'm still moved by you
cause you just have to ask

No it doesn't hurt
unless I walk
I dont feel pain
unless I try to talk
I dont even cry
unless I open my eyes
I don't need to kick or scream or curse
No, it doesn't hurt

You dont have to call
to make sure I'm up
cause i'm still wide awake
cause i'm still lost in shock
I know your concerned
I know your just sick
and I know you'd feel better
if I were over it

No it doesn't hurt
unless I walk
I dont feel pain
unless I try to talk
I dont even cry
unless I open my eyes
I don't need to kick or scream or curse
No, it doesn't hurt

I am wind
i am the sand
i am scared
i am a woman
and i'm fine
cause i deserve
the time to feel hurt

I know your good
i know your afraid
and I know its favoritive
would you just let me be
so what will you say
what you've haven't said
the question you asked me just
makes me feel better you left

No, it doesn't hurt
unless I move I don't feel anything
unless I think of you
I don't even cry
unless I open my eyes
I don't need to kick, or scream

no it doesn't hurt
unless i walk
i dont' feel anything
unless i try to talk
i don't even cry
unless i open my eyes
i don't need kick or scream or curse
noo,ooo, oo

it doesn't.....
hurt

Give Peace A Chance



Peace is in a permanent state, it exists in moments, fleeting, gone before we even know it was there. We can experience it at any time, in a strangers act of kindness, a task that requires complete focus, or simply the comfort of an old routine.
Every day we all experience these moments of peace. The trick is to know when they are happening so we can embrace them, live in them, and finally, let them go.

You are making a choice, you better be at peace with it.
