Keep calm and carry on.
Thats cool.
Its not easy to do is it?Keep calm and carry on.I hate it when somebody tells me. To keep calm.
God, that is annoying. Carry on, well, what else am I gonna do.
Anyway.....
Chances.
Risk.
Give Peace a Chance.
Give Obama a chance.,
Give Love a chance.
Give yourself a chance.
I think we are so preoccupied with being occupied that we have forgotten how to just be.
When I was a kid, there were no video games, etc.
I never walked 10 miles in the snow, barefoot.
But, I did not have games, and computers, and gadgets,
Instead I had me.
I had my sister and my little brother.
We had each other.
We liked each other, I think.
We never really thought about it.
We just were.
And it was.
And thats the way it was supposed to be.
Nobody defined anything.
Nobody analyzed everything.
There we were.
Kids.As we should have been.
In our back yard, there was trees, and a small brook. We lived In Oregon. Gorgeous. Rainy.
That never bothered us. Because, we had a forte to build.
Then one day. We decided.
We had to build a dam.
To save the house.
So, we started digging, and digging, and got some logs, and rocks, and those ugly little crawdaddy
creatures, disapproved, . we did not care.
Until we had a huge pool. Well, we could sit in it. And my sister was pretty fat, so it was big.
And a dam.Success.
Then it was time for dinner, and we ran up the back yard hill, washed our hands, and sat down for spaghetti.
Mommy, dad, Shawn,Aaron, Tracy, My Grandma, and me.
And it was perfect.
