My own two hands

I have been listening to this song a lot lately and it really makes me happy. Ben Harper is the one who wrote it and he sings it with Jack Johnson. The message in the song is absolutely perfect and touches me on an interesting level. Here are the lyrics, I recommend that you listen to it when you get a chance.


I can change the world

With my own two hands

Make it a better place

With my own two hands

Make it a kinder place

With my own two hands

With my own

With my own two hands

I can make peace on earth

With my own two hands

I can clean up the earth

With my own two hands

I can reach out to you

With my own two hands

With my own

With my own two hands

With my own

With my own two hands

I'm going to make it a brighter place

With my own two hands

I'm going to make it a safer place

With my own two hands

I'm going to help the human race

With my own two hands

With my own

With my own two hands

With my own

With my own two hands

I can hold you

In my own two hands

I can comfort you

With my own two hands

But you've got to use

Use your own two hands

Use your own

Use your own two hands

Use your own

Use your own two hands

With our own

Our own two hands

With our own

Our own two hands

With my own

With my own two hands

Visions of Superman




Do you ever dream of saving the planet singlehanded like Superman? I do. We need more supermen.

To whom it may concern

I may have come out a little dramatic in that last post. Forgive me I am new at this and have been enjoying reading my friends Ben and Heather's blogs. They amaze me at how easy they make it seem. They both are amazing writers. I hope that I can meet up to their standards. I am sure to include them in many of my future posts.

On the scale of stupid



I am up there pretty far.



I can't say that intellectually I am stupid it is just the actions that I take that tend to be stupid. Pretty damn stupid at times. You know the kind, the ones that seem like a great idea at the time but end up getting you in trouble, hurt or loosing a friend. Sometimes it is all three at the same time. Oh don't get me wrong there are a lot more things that can happen to you because of these actions these ones are just the ones that seem to get me the most.

It seems like in every stage of my life I have made stupid mistakes and knowing me I am going to continue to do stupid things. I just can't get away from it. Is stupidity an addiction? If it is I'm hooked. Hopefully they have a twelve step program for this.

To all of you out there who have been caught up in my stupidity I apologize whole heartedly. I am sure you know who you are, if you are not sure just ask and I am sure to be able to come up with something

Drowning slowly




I signed up for summer classes and only needed three more classes to be done with my associates. I was only able to get two of them. It would have made things much easier if I could have gotten all of them. Eva is looking for a job and is applying out of state a lot. I don't really want to move away from all of our friends and family. I will miss too many people too much and am just starting to develop some relationships. Do you ever feel like you are drowning? I'll get through it...I always do.

A New Day

Hello. I'm new to this so bare with me. Lately I have been reading my friends, Ben and Heather's blogs. It really amazes me how well they can write. I find reading their blogs a way to keep up with them when I don't get the chance to hang out with them. I think that they feel that I ignore them from time to time but this is far from the truth. I love hanging out with them and got a great chance to do so just last night. Ben and Heather came over later in the evening and invited me to a party at some friends of his. What a great time that we had, there was a band and lots of great people and we all fit comfortably in the Bunghole. I am so glad that I was able to be with them I think that it really helped our friendship. I would like to try and make saturdays our day, you know hang out do whatever comes to mind. That would float my boat.
