Form & Focus on a Mental Picture

Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding.
Hold this picture tenaciously and never permit it to fade.
Your mind will seek to develop this picture!

Dr. Norman Vincent Peale

People are not Objects and Opportunities

As a society we have come to a point where people often treat each other as objects and opportunities rather than as unique human beings who are worthy and entitled to be treated with dignity and respect without exception. We live in complicated times, but the solutions to some of the problems we face do not have to be complicated. Dignity and respect is a simple solution to complicated issues, although it is not always easy to do. It takes insight, awareness, and paying attention to what is going on around us. It requires us to take a stand for what we believe to be true and to be an outer representation of the values we cherish.

Why Can't I - by Liz Phair

Why Can’t I
– Liz Phair

Get a load of me, get a load of you
Walkin' down the street, and I hardly know you
It's just like we were meant to be

Holding hands with you, and we're out at night
Got a girlfriend, you say it isn't right
And I've got someone waiting too

This is, this is just the beginning
We're already wet, and we're gonna go swimming

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

Isn't this the best part of breakin' up
Finding someone else you can't get enough of
Someone who wants to be with you too

It's an itch we know we are gonna scratch
Gonna take a while for this egg to hatch
But wouldn't it be beautiful
Here we are, we're at the beginning
We haven't fucked yet, but my heads spinning

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it
So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

I'd love for you to make me wonder
Where it's goin'
I'd love for you to pull me under
Somethin's growin'for this that we can control
Baby I am dyin'

Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you
Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you
It's inevitable, it's a fact that we're gonna get down to it

So tell me
Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you

Refugee - by Tribal Ink

Refugee
– Tribal Ink

In fit of drowning, as my heart keeps pounding.
Scribing on the statue, all onto what's left.
Hold on, to the strings of reality.
Bouncing on my heel of prosperity.

Me by myself, with a gleam in my eye.
Watching it all wash by, watching me die.
It's so hard, to see it all fall through.
But it's too late, nothing left to do.

Chorus:
Refugee, I’m an enemy of your beliefs.
Don't hate me, because I disagree.

Release me, from the world unkind.
A world where the blind, is leading the blind.
It's so unfair, that I can't feel free.
That I have to be, what you want me to be.

Shadows of the past, keep stabbing my back.
Reminding me all, when I slept out a drag.
You're wasting your time, another morning dawning.
Time with the restless, keeps on joining.

Chorus:
Refugee, I’m an enemy of your beliefs.
Don't hate me, because I disagree.
Refugee, I’m an enemy of your beliefs.
Don't hate me, because I disagree.

Refugee, I’m an enemy of your beliefs.
Don't hate me, because I disagree.
Refugee, I’m an enemy of your beliefs.
Don't hate me, because I disagree.

Questions and Answers

Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart,
and try to love the questions themselves...
Do not now seek the answers,
which cannot be given to you,
because you will not be able to live them.
And the point is, to live everything.
Live the questions now.
Perhaps you will then gradually,without noticing it,
live along some distant day into the answer.

- Rainer Maria Rilke

Game Plan

One who hopes for the best will live to regret it.
Have a plan.
Have a contingency one.
Don't leave it to hope or chance.

This over-used statement still holds true:

"You fail to plan, you plan to fail".

Have a plan, and make it a damn good one!

歌曲：一眼瞬间
歌手：张惠妹 萧敬腾

(女)白茫茫的星光
洒在长长路上
想念的冰凉
你知道吗
你浅浅的微笑
深似海的眼光
都能掀起我
滔天的巨浪

(男)你相信吗
这是命吗
这次我们放弃抵抗
哪怕拥抱
在身上画下深深的伤

(合)只要看你一眼一瞬间
哪怕是最后画面
我的世界
因为爱过而完美
谁都不该离太远

只要看你一眼一瞬间
足够我熬过千年
我不后悔
爱若让末日提前
我们要一起
好好迎接那句点

(女)白茫茫的星光
洒在长长路上
想念的冰凉
你知道吗
你浅浅的微笑
深似海的眼光
都能掀起我
滔天的巨浪

(男)你相信吗
这是命吗
这次我们放弃抵抗
哪怕拥抱
在身上画下深深的伤

只要看你一眼一瞬间
足够我熬过千年
我不后悔

好好迎接那句点

(女)如果相爱是错
(男)错过又算什么
(合)这一次我们宁死不放手
往彼此的心里跳
跳过天荒地老 wo oh ...

只要看你一眼一瞬间
哪怕是最后画面
我的世界

谁都不该离太远

只要看你一眼一瞬间
足够我熬过千年
我不后悔
