Respect

Respect. What is it really? Is it something said? Something to be done? Felt? Accomplished? Or is it something more?

I believe it to be a nonverbal form of communication that has been in widespread use for centuries, yet has been on the decline in the last century or so as it seems that we cannot trust too many people these days... despite the fact that trust is what even a basic society is based on.

Twinkle twinkle little ape

I've re-written and re-purposed this post so many times I've lost count. I can't decide what to post. I was originally gonna post the lyrics to one of my songs from The Archives (all my old songs and scripts etc. I wrote from a few years ago). Then I posted some totally cliche post.

Soooo... I have decided to post a song I wrote for my future kids and my nephews.

Twinkle twinkle little ape,

How I wonder where you ain't,

Up above the trees so high,

Throwing dung at passers by,

Twinkle twinkle little ape,

How I wonder where you ain't.

Well my nephews think it's funny. Right now I don't at all as I am not in a good mood today. And my mood is only going to get worse as today goes on. This sucks.

Don't bury me

I do not want to be buried. Put in the ground so I can rot till I come back as a brainless zombie from Shawn of the Dead. No, being buried doesn't make any sense.

Why do we stick dead people in holes in the ground? It makes less sense than Kwame Kilpatrick does.

What does make sense however, is how my ancestors treated their dead. My fellow Native Americans (I am around 10%).
The deceased human would be put atop a huge wooden funeral pyre, sometimes much like the one in Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, and burned.

You can also make a comparison to Van Helsing, as some tribes did it that way.

Anyways...this is what I want done with me when I die in 120 years...I don't wanna be dumped in a casket doomed to rot and decay. I want to be set free.

Love Note Numero Uno

Here is a picture of one of those notes, I talked about a few posts back. I changed the name of course :)

There we go. One of many..and this one is somewhat tame compared to some others...

Yikes!

Yikes! I'm thrilled you guys are still checking my blog out. A TON of things have happened to me recently, including two weeks seeing my sister who lives in the middle east. I actually only went on the internet a couple times over there...and it was just as you thought. It was to find out a certain actors name from A Scanner Darkly. I did see the edited version however, since for the most part I don't watch R-rated movies. I know, I'm so wierd, aren't I?

Anyways, I'll see if I can post a couple things sometime tonight. I have way too much on my mind to fall asleep. I'll try to catch you up telling you what happened to me minus the names, and possibly instead just post a couple of notes I made on my phone. I guess you could call them 'love-notes'. Maybe I'll even do a snapshot of my phone so you can see them. That sounds cool and different, then under it I'll type in the words in case the picture goes kersplam or for those that have super-slow internet. Yeah, I think about you readers for some odd reason. And I don't even know ya!

Hmm. That's all for now. Just a real quick update. It might be a little while before I post again though, might be like a week (aht the most absolute).

OH, and that heartbreak did turn into a gooey chocolate bar...that's a good thing. But then that gooey-chocolate bar fell out of the wrapper and into the trash by accident. But, then the chocolate bar floated out of the trash and into my hand without touching any garbage that was in the trash.. I think I'm saying it right. Looks like I do have to tell a story in the next post of what has been going on. Gosh dangit. Actually, I love typing these, free thinking, not reallly deleting much of anything. You should try it. It''s quite fuin.

Bad moments

Bad moments and times and things tend to energize us. With that in mind, why do we hate these times? These times make us strive to do better, they let us recognize our downfalls...When was the last time you appreciated a 'bad moment' or 'bad' moments? I appreciate them all the time.

Very well the equipment could be you...

They're the little things that make life much more interesting. You go on a date to a carnival... and you don't feel like shelling out $20 and neither does she for parking. You start walking and it starts pouring rain. That's not a bad moment. It's a moment to consider the different possibilities, and get closer to each other.

I may not like every bad moment as it happens..but, you can't know good without knowing evil. You can't know what it is to feel dry if you've never been wet. It applies to everything. I may not have appreciated the last two months of heartbreak, but in the end, it was a good thing. I've learned a lot about life. And tomorrow, all of the heartbreak will be resolved and become a good gooey chocolate bar (most likely), or a polar bear snuggling around his gasoline container. Or Coke bottle. Either or.

Finns

That one moment, was at Recess. Annd I was in the middle of a game of tag, was running on the playstructure. Ya know, that thing with all the slides, and bars, and woodchips, and pointy things. Well, I ran off of that thing, and a ball landed next to me. A football.

I picked it up and was then informed by someone named Tyler that they were a player short, and they asked if I could play. Well, I didn't know what (american) football was. I was in 4th grade! So I went through: Actually learn how to play this new foreign sport, or continue having fun running around chasing and being chased?

Well, I ended up picking the lazy route and continued tag for whatever reason. Now, these two crowds of people really are like the two types of people at my school now, very generally speaking. I've now disassociated with most of these people (a few I still do), so it doesn't affect me now. But for all those years, that one choice would have completely altered my life.

For the better or not, I do not know. I would have been hanging out with different people. My interests would be different. I dunno who I'd be if I had taken that route. But, that's because we have free agency down here on earth given  to us from God. We can choose good from evil, or in this case, good or good, and we do what we want, paying for the consequences whatever they may be.

I'm thinking I chose the right decision for me.

FYI: I actually didn't learn how to play (American) Football till last year. It's pretty fun to play. I HATE watching it. For me that ain't my kind of fun. I can care about who wins in the end, but it's just football...
What I do care about however, is what we Americans call Soccer. I really hope I come back from my mission soon enough to see the next World Cup! I always cheer on Switzerland and Finland. Switzerland...well, they are good people from what I hear. And, the Finns because I am part Finnish!

This is one of my favorite sports:

EDIT: Of course, Brasil will probably have a pretty good line-up for the next World Cup...
