there's so much BS in this world. and we all complain about it. but I've noticed that no one does scrap about it.
i used to donate a couple bucks every other week to mcdonalds fund, redcross, ect.
and i havent done any of that for a while...
I've always inspired to be like my piano teacher. Not only did she guide her students musically and artistically, she guided us philosophically and taught us how to live well.
and i use to dream of following her footsteps in the other things she does: her and her husband volunteer at juvi's to help and listen to the youths that have it hard in this city. the stories she had shared with me had made me cry and realize that no matter how tough my life ever got....its peanuts to what is really out there.
reading this intro from Blake last nite...i think this is the sort of "introduction" we should begin each month with.we truly live priviledged and lucky lives. we may not be sheltered necessarily, but...we forget all to easily that what we have are not a given, and we lose ourselves in the frivolity and surface glamour of our world.
like my gwen stefani trip...or the blue i love...the...
doesnt mean we cant indulge ourselves, but it means we cant forget and we should do what we can. i think...ima pass on celebrating my bday in vegas this weekend...a friend got me a presidential suite for me and friends...and i passed on a spa package at the Ritz this weekend
i dunno...i feel like doing sum volunteer work... God meant for us to do more than just live privelidged lives...
