He has out-Bushed Bush.
There is no need to inject racial psychoanalysis into the public conversation when straightforward political analysis is more than sufficient to the task. In two and a half years, the Obama administration has expanded George Bush’s wars and national security infrastructure and budget, added a new theater of combat in North Africa, and proclaimed a presidential prerogative to assassinate and invade...
Yesterday I lost a really good friend…to a disease that at one point almost engulfed me. And sometimes still slips through the cracks.
It was a true wake-up call. To think that what happened to her could have easily been me…damn, I don’t know. Why is it that I’m still here and she’s not? Why do bad things..bad thoughts..bad feelings happen to such amazing people? I...

I refuse to be an afterthought. I should be the...
I love going to the park and just sitting…watching people. You can learn a lot about a person within those few seconds. They’re confidence, or lack of…it shines through at that very moment. The way they walk…the pace at which they’re walking. The way they carry their bags, how they hold their phone, the way they bob their head to the music blasting from their iPod...
The Basis of Love is Friendship.
Good friends are really hard to find. They gotta be there for you even when you are wrong, but at the same time they can’t just tell you what you want to hear, they’ve also got to be willing to tell you what you need to hear. That’s the real reason true love is so hard to find. Because the basis of love is friendship and friendship is really really rare.
Happy Endings
Why do I feel like nothing I ever do is good enough? Why is my drive motivated by what will make others happy?
I’m not perfect. And I don’t know why I feel like I have to be.
So you’re disappointed?
I’m sorry I’m not what you thought or wanted..or what you expected.
fuck it.

sometimes i just wanna throw my middle finger in the air and say fuck you, fuck this, fuck the way you make me feel, and fuck everybody. i seem to find myself in the same situations too many times, and i don’t know how to get away from it. so until i find a better way to deal….. just fuck it.
words.
joyamj:
sometimes you can’t find the right words to say. thoughts just get jumbled up in your head to the point where your mind feels like it’s gonna explode. is there ever a right way to express the way you feel? emotions can overpower the strong intelligent voice you once had, and turn it into a shy illiterate stutter. words, they’re just words. it should be easy, but it’s not. i can’t even...
Thinking Outside of the Box
Talk about a catch phrase? Overused. Seldom done.
Everyone thinks they think outside the box, but the truth is, they only know what’s happening inside of their own box. You only know you. You want to think outside of the box? How about you step into my box.
I love my life & everyone in it. So thanks if you...
I used to think change was all bad. It was scary….and I hated it. But the more I think about it now, it wasn’t the change I was afraid of…It was the result…the outcome. In the past 5 years, a lot changed in my life….stressed from school, family, and relationship problems….so much to the point where I was physically sick…dangerously sick. The results that...

At some point you have to make a decision. Boundaries don’t keep other people out; they fence you in. Life is messy, that’s how we’re made. So you can waste your life drawing lines or you can live your life crossing them.
There are some lines that are way too dangerous to cross, but here’s what I know: If you’re willing to take the chance, the view from the other side is spectacular.
My thoughts on the death of bin Laden
I have a lot of thoughts on this whole affair. First of all, I do applaud Obama for conducting the mission intelligently. By quietly following leads and choreographing the capture instead of stomping around and shouting about justice with a megaphone, Obama managed to do what Bush could (or would) not. The U.S. no longer has a “big bad boogey man” to concentrate their hatred...
1906idreamed2 asked: Hope all is well pretty lady..
Why do people believe I can be successful at everything….except relationships? You don’t doubt my work ethic…my intelligence..my drive. But being with one person..being content with them…avoiding that boredom that always seems to creep up on me…you doubt that? Why can’t you just be happy for me when I say “I think I found that one.” Why is that shit...
You really don't need to question what I do. Know...
