do you realize

do you realize... that you have the most beautiful face
do you realize... we're floating in space...
do you realize... that happiness makes you cry
do you realize... that everyone you know someday will die...

and instead of saying all of your goodbyes... let them know
you realize that life goes fast
it's hard to make the good things last
you realize the sun don't go down
it's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round


do you realize
do you realize... that everyone you know
someday will die...

and instead of saying all of your goodbyes... let them know
you realize that life goes fast
it's hard to make the good things last
you realize the sun don't go down
it's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round


do you realize... that you have the most beautiful face
do you realize

love and forgiveness



at a time of such love, such rapture, such self sacrifice, what do any of our quarrels and affronts matter? i love and forgive everybody now.

Friendship Ball


A ball is a circle, no beginning, no end.
It keeps us together like our Circle of Friends.
But the treasure inside for you to see
is the treasure of Friendship you've granted to me.
Today I pass the Friendship Ball to you.
Pass it on to someone who is a Friend to you.

MY OATH TO YOU...
When you are sad... I will dry your tears.
When you are scared... I will comfort your fears.
When you are confused... I will help you cope.
And when you are lost and can't see the light,
I shall be your beacon... shining ever so bright!
This my oath... I pledge till the end.
Why you may ask?
Because you're my Friend.

Murphy's Other Laws


Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

He who laughs last, thinks slowest.

A day without sunshine is like, well, night.

Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.

Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

The 50-50-90 rule: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong.

It is said that if you line up all the cars in the world end to end, someone would be stupid enough to try to pass them.

If the shoe fits, get another one just like it.

The things that come to those that wait may be the things left by those who got there first.

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he will sit in a boat all day drinking beer.

Flashlight: A case for holding dead batteries.

The shin bone is a device for finding furniture.

A fine is a tax for doing wrong. A tax is a fine for doing well.

When you go into court, you are putting yourself in the hands of 12 people who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.

HAPPY MONDAY. ugh.

I Wrote Your Name


I wrote your name on a piece of paper,
but by accident I threw it away.
I wrote your name on my hand, but it washed away.
I wrote your name in the sand, but the waves whispered it away.
I wrote your name in my heart, and forever it will stay.

I believe in angels,
The kind that heaven sends.
I'm surrounded by angels,
But I call them my friends.
