Useless Fact #23

Time doesn’t heal all wounds.

Sad, but true.

Useless Fact #22

Facebook is great because you can view photos of the vacations, parties, and fun photos of friends and family.

However, you were never invited. You would have never known if all of those photos were not plastered all over Facebook.

What to do? Those people who left you out are now old friends, period.

Jack Johnson Knows Everything

i heard this old story before
Where people keep appealing for the metaphors
Don’t leave much up to the imagination,
So I wanna give this imagery back
No, it just ain’t so easy like that
So, I turn the page and read the story again
And again and again

It sure seems the same with a different name
We’re breaking and rebuilding
And we’re growing
Always guessing

Never knowing
Shocking but we’re nothing
We’re just moments
We’re clever but we’re clueless
We’re just human
Amusing and confusing
We’re trying but where is this all leading
We’ll never know

It all happened so much faster than you could say disaster
Wanna take a time lapse and look at it backwards
From the last one
And maybe that’s just the answer that we’re after

But after all
We’re just a bubble in a boiling pot
Just one breath in a chain of thought
The moments just combusting
Feel certain but we’ll never, never know
Sure seems the same
Give it a different name
We’re begging and we’re needing
And we’re trying and we’re breathing

Never knowing
Shocking but we’re nothing
We’re just moments
We’re clever but we’re clueless
We’re just human
Amusing and confusing
We’re helping, we’re building and we’re growing
You never know

You never know
Never know

Never know

Knock, knock on my door to door
Tell ya that the metaphor is better than yours
And you can either sink or swim
Things are looking pretty grim

If you don’t believe in what this one feeding
It’s got no feeling
So I read it again and again and again

Sure seems the same
Too many different names
Our hearts are strong, our hands are weak
We’ll always be competing never knowing

Never knowing
Shocking but we’re nothing
We’re just moments
We’re clever but we’re clueless
We’re just human
Amusing, confusing
But the truth is all we got is questions
We’ll never know

Never know
Never know
Never know

(Never Know lyrics)

What is a Friend?

The most fatal disease of friendship is gradual decay, or dislike hourly increased by causes too slender for complaint, and too numerous for removal.”

-Samuel Johnson (quote author)

(after reading this quote, maybe a therapist is better than friends) :)

My Dog is my best pal, she understands me. :)

Unhappy? Afraid? Lonely?

The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature.”

“As long as this exists, and it certainly always will, I know that then there will always be comfort for every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be. And I firmly believe that nature brings solace in all troubles.”

-Anne Frank (quote author)

Noise – Assaulting our Bodies?

“When Mozart was composing at the end of the eighteenth century, the city of Vienna was so quiet that fire alarms could be given verbally, by a shouting watchman mounted on top of St. Stefan’s Cathedral.”

“In twentieth-century society, the noise level is such that it keeps knocking our bodies out of tune and out of their natural rhythms. This ever-increasing assault of sound upon our ears, minds, and bodies adds to the stress load of civilized beings trying to live in a highly complex environment.”

-Steven Halpern (quote author)
