How I did it
It made me
calm 
How I did it: I realized that the beauty lies in the imperfections, in the not knowing, and in the realization that there are truths that lie in us all. You just have to be willing to see them. I'm finally at peace. This goal is really about accepting what you already know to be true. I know that it is not at all easy. There always seems to be a small part of us, hanging on to the notion, that maybe, just maybe, they will change and be the figu… Read how I did it…

Before the summer is over I am going to hike Mail Box Peak! I am in no way a ‘serious’ hiker but I really want to acompolish this hike. The trail climbs 4,800 feet in 3 miles! That’s intense to say the least.
I’m excited!
Shooting for August sometime.
You went into the kitchen cupboard
Got yourself another hour
And you gave
Half of it to me
We sat there looking at the faces
Of these strangers in the pages
‘Til we knew ‘em mathematically
They were in our minds
Until forever
But we didn’t mind
We didn’t know better
So we made our own computer out of macaroni pieces
And it did our thinking while we lived our lives
It counted up our feelings
And divided them up even
And it called that calculation perfect love
Didn’t even know that love was bigger
Didn’t even know
That love was so, so
Hey Hey Hey
Hey this fire it’s burnin’
Burnin’ us..
Up
So we made the hard decision
And we each made an incision
Past our muscles and our bones
Saw our hearts were little stones
Pulled ‘em out they weren’t beating
And we weren’t even bleeding
As we lay ‘em on the granite counter top
We beat ‘em up
Against each other
We struck ‘em hard
Against each other
We struck ‘em so hard
So hard until they sparked
Hey this fire it’s burnin’
Burnin’ us up
