Turkey day is right around the corner and there is plenty for me to be grateful and appreciative...and here are just some of them:
a roof over my head
*a warm bed
*my family (what's that quote from "Lilo & Stitch"? "This is my *family--it may be small, it may be broken, but it is still my family"?? Or something to that extent)
*opportunity to get a college education and become a rich pharmacist (don't be fooled by the rocks that i got--i'm still jenny from the block..)
*enlightenment as to who my true friends really are
*appreciation that life is too short to be caught up in all the petty things0--Carpe diem!
*i am also grateful for my new favorite band, Linkin Park, whose lyrics i will now share w/ you (hope you can relate to these as much as i can):
With You
I woke up in a dream today
To the cold of the static and put my cold feet on the floor
Forgot all about yesterday
Remembering I'm pretending to be where I'm not anymore
A little taste of hypocrisy
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake slow to react
Even though you're so close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back
It's true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes
I hit you and you hit me back
We fall to the floor the rest of the day stands still
Fine line between this and that
When things go wrong I pretend the past isn't real
I'm trapped in this memory
And I'm left in the wake of the mistake slow to react
So even though you're close to me
You're still so distant
And I can't bring you back
It's true the way I feel
Was promised by your face
The sound of your voice
Painted on my memories
Even if you're not with me
I'm with you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes
No, no matter how far we've come
I can't wait to see tomorrow
No, no matter how far we've come I
I can't wait to see tomorrow
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes
With you
You, now I see, keeping everything inside
with you
You, Now I see, Even when I close my eyes
