Tomorrow, June 12th, 2009.

A year.


I can't believe I'm alive right now.

I don't know if I'm thankful for that or not

It's been a year since you drove away, its been the most emotionally difficult year of my life.
I'm just. I'm just so, I'm just so
So tired.
I'm just so tired from it, I ache.



It's been a long year. A long year, and a long way down. I'm alive. I'm tired, but I'm still alive. It's been a long year, and it'll be a long, long way back down, down to the place where we started from......

I think you lost what you loved in that mess of details
They seemed so important at the time but now you can't even recall
Any of the names, faces, or lines,
its more the feeling of it all
Well, winter is going to end and
I'm going clean these veins again
So close to dying that I finally can start living
- Bright Eyes









I kinda feel like all of this has been some strange fairy tale

Dear Darling Love,

One year later... And it's all becoming clearer, and despite how you may feel now, I am thankful for what you gave me, and what I gave you is yours to keep, and although I shall no longer await your phone call, I will always pick up, and be there for you whenever you want.

I know you're out there somewhere, and I just want you to remember that if you are ever alone, if you need someone to talk to, that I am still here. A year ago I met you and fell in love with you, and 4 & a half months ago you told me that things had changed. Endlessness didn't last, and I won't change, given the chance.

And I've known the reasons for a while now, and I accept your choice. And we just saw each other this past weekend, and I wish it went differently, but more importantly I hope you enjoyed yourself, I think you did, even if we didn't talk.

I guess I should start moving on, but sometimes it just hurts too much, so I guess I'll go to sleep and maybe you'll visit me in my dreams. I thank you so much for all you have given me, the experiences we shared, the love we had, and I hope you never forget, I know I will always remember.

I remember all the places we went together, the friends you introduced to me, and how they've changed, parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme. I remember your love, your sweet caress. I remember how I would come home with you and your mother and how I would help around the house, fixing things, putting the vacuum together, I felt like a filled a role in that place that you call home, that I had found a place that I felt at home, accepted, loved, unquestioned.

You've been used, You're confused, I think. When I lay asleep flashbacks play on the wall like an old home video, the tears crawl down my face. You're the moonchild, I think I'm the sunchild you're waiting for. I remember that moment when we first met and parted a year ago that weekend in early november, how it seemed like a dream that would last forever, and I know that I need you now, and I can wait. I am patient, I am kind, I am gathering my broken parts but I can't find them all without you. You know it's never too late to change, doesn't our love mean enough to go beyond it all, please don't throw it all away, please don't through me away. I Maybe we can rise above this pain and try again to see the love.

I love you now and forever I shall have a place for you in my heart.
May your dreams take you anywhere you want, may you succeed in all of your endeavors, may love find you, may you live freely, and if he ever hurts you, if things go amiss, remember that I'm still here, with a love for you that should have lasted years. True love won't desert you, and if you must go, I wish you love, You'll never walk alone. I never thought I'd see you go so soon. Please don't let, what was, get in the way of, what's next, Don't forget, that what's to come, hasn't, come yet.

~ F.

This is a sad day indeed
as i have just learned, George Carlin passed away yesterday after a heart failure at the age of 71. He was an amazing comedian, but i feel that so much can be learned from him, may he live on forever in our culture, in our comedy, in our memories, and in our hearts. He forever has commented upon politics, culture, language, psychology, religion, and always was pushing the envelope when it came to freedom of speech and helping humans get passed our social norms and dealing with problems we all had. He was a man unlike any other, and was representative of a spirit, of a feeling. I think that Acharya S. explains this best, "...I'm thinking that George's passing truly signals the end of the era - the end of the party, in fact."
To quote Eiichiro Oda, when speaking on death, "When does a man die? When he is shot in the heart by a bullet? No. When he is ravaged by a disease? No. When he eats a soup made out of a poisonous mushroom? No. A man dies when he is forgotten!"

George Carlin (May 12 1937 - June 22 2008) RIP



Here's to you man.

Peace and Love,
Be Well,
Bai
Namaste
