Every Day I... Do This!

Now that my life is somewhat back to that way it was before girls and crazieness, I can finally get back to that average place, that funny place that I always visited before I went insane with all that stuff about girls and grades and... GAH!  Fuckin' everything!  *Whew*  Anyway, getting back to my real life has dropped all the stress and weight from my shoulders and I can finally stand tall again.  And, to make this even better, I had to recite a poem in my English 3 class that was so inspirational, I just had to post it here.



The Laughing Heart.  by Charles Bukowski

Your life is your life
Don't let it be clubbed into dank submission
Be on the watch
There are ways out
There is a light somewhere
It may not be much light but
It beats the darkness
Be on the watch
The gods will offer you chances.
Know them.
Take them.
You can't beat death but
You can beat death in life, sometimes.
And the more you learn to do it,
The more light there will be.
Your life is your life
Know it while you have it
You are marvelous
The gods wait to delight
In you.
