| 7/5/01 I'm consolidating all my old 'rants an raves' to this page - This is my way of closing another chapter in my life - the experience was worth the struggle, I learned much. I'm filing this under yesterday...so a toast - May pleasant dreams and good company never part! |

| There's never time to do it right, but there's always time to do it over. |

| It's time we all consider each day important, each moment vital, and each decision taken with personal responsibility in mind - I have only one wish for you...may you find a fresh perspective and a renewed lease on life...cliche...cliche...cliche...right? I have been aware of my 'dream' since age five, but it wasn't until lately that I realized what lies in the importance of that dream... There are many people who are so consumed at looking for their dream...well, they forget to look inside. They consider everything around them the sum of their being...all the while a passionate fire is burning out from within... I on the other hand, allowed the fire to burn without thought to elements outside that dream ...I suddenly found myself lost to the reason of it's pursuit... SO, I wish for you all - fresh Perspective...We are all lost at times, and in those times we forget, the road map is stored in our hearts... take a moment to see where your future really stands... life by choice? or life by an uncontrolled fate? Tired Of The Ratrace? Welcome back to the machine. Taking a much needed break from what we call the rat race? One tip, YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO JOIN IT. Pull over, grab a seat on the bleachers....and buy a beer and some peanuts. (I personally suggest you avoid the popcorn - the guy running the concession stand was reforced to retire from the race -- And we know how bitter forced retirees can be when making popcorn) One more tip, the only one you can really trust...it's the tried and true BEERMAN. There is one rule a spectator must learn quickly - Don't tease the people in the ratrace...the rat-racers will kidnap you...force you to watch old 'Brady Bunch' shows while they stuff meatloaf down you throat! Being a 'watcher' is a dangerous occupation...but a fulfilling one. Good Luck ;-) -Tim <undercover ratracer - bringing you the inside scoop> Ever wonder, what the deal is with our past 'loves'? I mean, we put ourselves through pure agony....what if ? if only...you know what I'm talking about. It's amazing how we can get these deep emotions in shallow water...we keep bumping our heads on the rocks...wondering why it hurts...? Sounds kind of odd? It sounds really, really, really stupid to me - why subject yourself to an obvious pain? Love, now that my friends is a lost cause. I've often thought perhaps there is an answer...a truth behind it all, I'm afraid when that elusive answer finds me....I'll probably get hit by a bus. Just a thought.... Ok, here it is...I'm writing - while a beautiful, refreshing Friday morning is begining in earnest. Perhaps I should have called off of work. Right about now, most of my friends are sleeping comfortably in their warm beds - oblivious to the light hum of a coming spring. I was never the morning person...yes for some reason this feels right. I would rather not work during such a beautiful morning...., Today is the day we should go outside - even if it's only to sit down and enjoy a few verses by Keats....ponder over some thoughts of our life - our role in this world. Awake people, we only have today. Liberate you heart and soul! |
