Fear

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

I came across this incredible quote when I was watching the movie Coach Carter. And I find this quote to be so true.. Say if you win a few times at something, that puts a lot of pressure on you to continue to be good and powerful so you might want it to stop. Also if we are inadequate we have something to strive for. 
If we are powerful we have responsibilities to use that power for good and that is not always easy for most people. 
This quote really changed the way I think about fear. When people usually think of FEAR they think of scary movies or ghosts never do they think of the fear of being great.

Uses of a brick

To throw at people, kill someone, build with, to trap the big bad wolf, to smash potatoes, to knock out windows, to pass a message around, to use as a massager, to look through, to jump on, to use as a stepping stool, to make a car go automatically, to sit on, to write with, to SMAHS THIS COMPUTER WITH, to play catch with, to use as a book mark, to use as a IPod, to use as a hot tub if the brick was huge, to roll your muscles out with, to lift, to sink people with, to use as a ipod dock, to wake you up in the morning, to break lights, to work out, to play games, to use as a gift, to hold someones head before they get executed.

Love

What is Love? I will tell you exactly what love is! Love is painful and worthless in HIGH SCHOOL!!!! All love is, is a waste of time and money on a girl who then decides she wants to move on to someone else. Girls are so deceiving and they say all these things about how awesome you are and how good looking you are and your so kind blah blah blah. All of this is just to prove a point that they could easily get you whenever they wanted. But hey I am not saying that all girls are like this actually most girls aren't like this, but unfortunately for guys like me there are some girls who love to play this game.

Don't get me wrong Love is great if you find the right person. But the hard part is finding the right person....

CREATIVITY

I miss the smell of crayons..... I miss the way adults look at me when I tell them the square on my paper is actually a starship getting ready to take off... I miss putting on a red cape and then becoming superman... I miss pretending to be a spy on a secret mission for the president... I miss my best friend Dunston who was a monkey... I miss my CRAYONS...

I miss being in the NBA finals with Michael Jordan and hitting the game winning shot... I miss being the first kid to climb Mt Everest... I miss seeing animals in the clouds... I miss coming up with new games... I miss pretending the ground was hot lava... I miss being the fastest person in the world... I miss my CRAYONS...

I miss being the First KID on the moon... I miss being INVINCIBLE... But most of all I miss my CRAYONS...

Am I Human??

I get up in the morning and I feel my heart pound and think of sleeping in, but my body has something else in mind.. Before I know it I have already brushed my teeth and am now getting out of the shower. I think of maybe skipping breakfast and then the next thing I know I'm over a plate of eggs and fruit. 

Am I human??  I just sometimes feel like I am a program... (TRON)
Well if I am not a robot then what the heck am I??
