Self-a-do-it! copyright 1992

I believe this time has come.


I'm young, I dont want to be one of MY parents that dont know squat about technology. (no effense to Mom and Pops.) There are so many technological advances (half of which we dont even know about because the government hides it.)

Think about it. If the United States had atomic bombs in world war 2- now nearly 50 years later-there logically has to be some crazy bombs and blow up crap out there we dont really WANT to know about. Ignorance is bliss, eh? On a side note, U.S. was (is) hardly the technological leader nationally speaking. Russia has always been ahead of us, and China is booming like fireworks on the 4th! Their whole "self a-do-it!" philosophy seems to work on that level, selfish introverts. Side-side note* self-a-do-it was a term coined by YOURS TRULY as a child-I rather like it, shows my sticklerness :) haha no really I was a good kid.

I could ramble a whole nother page but Im feeling a short article tonight. Let me know your thoughts- Im a nut for discussion :)


danke schon

If I cant go away
I'll leave mentally
take a trip to the pier
and wander into serenity
simplifying my life
by fantastical trips
to far away places
where I can be myself
at least for a little bit

Id sing these songs
in coffee shops and bars
not caring who is listening
until I wake up to passing cars
and realize that Im contemplating
on leaving
and that its aggrivating
to be deceiving

gone too fast

what would we do for love
sabatoge ourselves
or pay in dollars and cents
only to renegotiate our nets

what would you do for love
see him on the city block
its not the first time
he's been on your mind

chorus:
your love is cast
surrounding me
your love might last
longer than this dream
your love could overcast
and clear a way
a love thats gone too fast

(if)I could fade into the brick
my mind might keep/everything but logic
I'd weave through cement cracks/to catch a glance
at the one who makes my heart tick
as I drift into this far romance
(chorus)

--------------------------------------------

DIARY PORTION: (and newly deemed so)
well I havent been sleeping very well lately, waking up a lot sometimes abruptly with my heart racing. I cant exactly pick out whats bothering me but hopefully writing about it will help me figure it out.

God gives life

Sometimes I feel far away
because I put myself
at a distance anyway

I want to run
in two different directions
then I realize
Your work has just begun

God you open my eyes
when I need it most
I've come to realize
my old self has died

CHORUS:
You open my eyes
when I feel to far to touch
You open my eyes
when I run in cirlces of distress
God, you are the only One


tag:
who can give me life
who can bring air to my lungs
who can give strength to the hopeless

A lesson taught on Jesus Christ: Everything we need, at my bible study really opened my eyes to sometimes how we as Christians can live. We can go through the motions of a christian, we can want success so badly that we make up standards (things that are not required by God-such as baptism, the sacraments, confession, etc.) show me where in the bible these commands are deemed neccessary to be saved from Hell and given eternal life in heaven?

Anyways that was a couple points the teacher had. The only way we can truly come to Christ is through faith in Him alone. Romans 10:9 " If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved."

-NOTHING we can do saves us. think about it. Christs death on the cross saved us.
