“

I’m just a dreamer but I’m hanging on
Though I am nothing big to offer
I watch the birds, how they dive in then gone
It’s like nothing in this world’s ever still

And I’m just a shadow of your thoughts in me
But sun is setting, shadows growing
A long cast figure will turn into night
It’s like nothing in this world ever sleeps

Oh sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
And why can’t that always be
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Just enough dark to see
How you’re the light over me

“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”

“ Life is short, and opportunities are rare. And we have to be vigilante in protecting them, and not only the opportunities to succeed, but the opportunity to laugh, to see the enchantment in the world, and to live. Because life doesn’t owe us anything, as a matter of fact, I think that we owe something to the world.


“ Somewhere along the way, somebody or some group of people instructed us that it is possible to feel OK all of the time, that the human mind should normally behave appropriate at all times, and if there is any part of your day or week or month that falls short of feeling 100 percent, there is something wrong with you. Let me tell you what happens to everybody, but they won’t talk about it, because they feel that it’s only them: Everybody freaks out. If you want to freak out, freak out. If you feel like all the sudden you’re sick and you want to cry, go do it. Just everybody accept that everybody is going to freak out. You’re not going to be 100 percent all the time! Let me make it easy for you. You’re going to have at least one point a week that doesn’t feel right. But maybe it doesn’t feel so wrong if you know that it is something that is supposed to happen to you. It is the other side of being conscious and loving, that there are going to be times when you have to hit control-alt-delete. You might be walking through an airport, you might be having the time of your life— in fact, it’s more likely to happen during the best part of your life. So what I’m trying to say to you is fight on. Words of wisdom from JM…

Best part of my day was turning this in. I think I’m way more proud with how it looks then how it sounds… That should count for something, right? (Taken with instagram)

Basically, the simple 'no duh' of why Iran shouldn't be bombed

If Iran is intent on getting a bomb, an attack would delay but not stop it. Indeed, using Western bombs as a tool to prevent nuclear proliferation risks making Iran only more determined to build a weapon—and more dangerous when it gets one.
