When you put your foot to the ground
you never know what you've found
as you make your way down the trail
every mile, minute or inch feels like a nail in your soul
you take the pain, but you feel no gain as you hit your stride
just forget about your pride
there is not much time inside
into the place without a face
step aside and hold to be
for what we are, we can't quite see
we need to stop and hold the line
and don't tell me that you are fine
there is no rhyme this time
they're dead,
they're gone
and
I
am
sad.

Emmet otter's jug band christmas
Does any one remember Jim Henson's Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas. It was the best show I ever saw for christmas. It summed up my life growing up with my mom back in philly and shoveling snow to get money for presents. We never had much and my mom worked all of the time, she was and always has been a great inspiration to me a true old german woman who will tear you a new one but be there for you in the end. I have not heard from her since before I went into the dream center I hope she is alright. I have called and sent letters to no avail. I do believe that no news is good news, though.
So Why did I get booted out of the Dream Center? That seems to be the question on everyone's mind it has to do with a number of incidents in which I broke the rules and it ultimately landed me out of the program. I have nothing but love for the center and the people there. They are wonderful and I hope to see them all again sometime. I made some good friends in there and I am hopeful that they will continue while I am on the outside.
Once a person is institutionalized the want for freedom becomes immense and I think that Is what I was after, I never want to be held down and forced to into rules that I don't agree with. Call me the constant rebel but I believe that we are free for a reason in this nation and I love it to no end.
The day I was booted out was the day of the Newtown shootings, what a horrible thing to happen and I see that the media and the president are jumping on the 2nd amendment control thing. There is something to be said for gun control, I don't have one nor do I like them very much, I would rather carry a sword and face a man to face. The sole purpose for a gun is to kill, hunters use them, I've used them but why do you need an ak-47 to hunt deer I don't understand, no wait I do when it is in your hands you feel in control and it is fun to rattle off those rounds but that is what the range is for. I would rather hunt with a bow than a gun just because I am afraid of them not the gun itself but what it can do and I am fearful of the person holding the gun. I don't know what is going through their head at any given time. I will take my son out for his first hunt when it is time so that I know he respects the tool that he has to feed his family not to be a control mechanism. So as for gun control I am against registering weapons but I think we need to clamp down on those that purchase guns at shows that might be a bit mental. I know that it is hypocritical and alot of things that bring balance to the unverse are we just need to look past that.
