Pretending you know what you're doing is almost the same as knowing...

One doesn't become extraordinary-one decides to accomplish extraordinary things.

OBLIGATORY DISCLAIMERS

If you really want to know who I am, read this.


If you add me as a friend on your journal, and I don't add you back right away, PLEASE don't take offense. My Friends List is barely manageable as it is right now, and it takes forever just to catch up every morning...

OBLIGATORY PHILOSOPHYI don't think it's so much about what you ARE but what you want to be, if only for a moment.

* Take a picture: in that moment, you are a photographer.
* Draw a stick figure: in that moment, you are an artist.
* Sing a song: in that moment, you are a singer.
* Play some music: in that moment, you are a musician.
* Dance in your living room: in that moment, you are a dancer.


OBLIGATORY QUOTESAnd so the Purple Tortise devaporised onto the plains of Ur-gol and looked about him. 'Well then,' he thought, 'let's get at it, shal we?' And he turned towards the sun and began walking... --me
“Be fearless and pure; never waver in your determination or your dedication to the spiritual life. Give freely. Be self-controlled, sincere, truthful, loving, and full of the desire to serve...Learn to be detached and to take joy in renunciation. Do not get angry or harm any living creature, but be compassionate and gentle; show good will to all. Cultivate vigor, patience, will, purity; avoid malice and pride. Then, you will achieve your destiny.”

~ Krishna
from The Bhagavad Gita
Just as intellects are bewildered by my madness, I am bewildered by the frozen state of these intellects.

Because in this path, anything other than confusion and madness is distance and alienation from God.

--Rumi,

OBLIGATORY SONG LYRICS
There is this thing that's like touching except you don't touch.
Back in the day it just went without saying at all.
All the world's history gradually dying of shock.
There is this thing that's like talking except you don't talk.
You... sing.
Sing for the bartender.
Sing for the janitor.
Sing.
Sing for the camera.
Sing for the animal.
Sing.
Sing for the children
shooting the children.
Sing.
Sing for the teachers
who told you that you couldn't.
Sing.
Just sing.
There is this thing
keeping everyone's lungs and lips
locked.
It is called fear
and it's seeing a great
renaissance.
After the show
you can not sing wherever
you want.
But for now
let's just pretend we're all gonna
get bombed.		So sing.
Sing cause it's obvious.
Sing for the astronaut.
Sing.
Sing for the president.
Sing for the terrorist.
Sing.
Sing for the soccer team.
Sing for the ganga weed.
Sing.
Sing for the kid
with the phone who refuses to.
Sing.
Just sing.
Ahhhhhhhhh
Life is no cabaret.
Ahhhhhhhhh
We're inviting you anyway.
Ahhhhhhhhh
You motherfuckers just sing something.
Ahhhhhhhhh
You motherfuckers just sing something.
Ahhhhhhhhh
