Geez, what kind of things do you dream?

He's playing in Long Beach on January 9th! Anybody going? I wish I could, but I have to save up my money.

I can't stop listening to them! So incredibly amazing. I must say, I like their old stuff better than the recent. I've just recently started listening to Youth and Young Manhood, and its great. I have 'Only by the Night' and 'Aha Shake Heartbreak', and I'm going out to by 'Because of the Times' and 'Youth and Young Manhood' tonight. I'm stoked! And I love Caleb. He has the best voice. Its just naturally... magnificent. I tried to teach myself 'The Bucket' on electric guitar. Much more pleasurable to listen to their skills doing it instead of my lame attempts...

Caleb Followill with short hair: From the band Kings of Leon

Kings of Leon! I can't get enough of them recently. They have sparked another phase of 'I have to learn guitar!'.

Yes I agree. I just love her voice with a piano, it has an old-fashioned feel to it. I'd love to hear her sing jazz or blues. I love how she starts a few of her songs acoustically when she sings them live. For example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIvhs1DLHEI

That's awesome! I went through that same process, and now I'm hooked. I fell in love with the same song, but this performance: Personally I think she sounds better vocally in this one.

Thank You!

A collage that I made!: The picture quality sucks, sorry.

I have become a huge fan of her over the past few weeks. She's amazing

I watched the SyFy mini series of 'Alice' and I found out about Andrew Lee Potts Edit: Aww you can't see them. Well I can't at least. Here's a link: Picture

Yes! Great! Thank You

I know! I've yet to buy it haha Thanks though!

This is kind of just a question for you to think. Its not an arguable answer, kind of just rhetorical questions: Think about your life right now. Think about everything you have, all the people in your life. Think about other countries and places and what they might have. What's the difference between the two? Next time you go out, watch the people on the street and wonder what their story is, what is going on in their life, the pain, the joy. Go somewhere, maybe a mall or a bench on the street or an airport. Just sit and let everything be. Just listen, wonder, observe. Don't DO anything. Don't contribute to the chaos, to the schedules. Just be a part of nature and let everything fall in place. My favorite place to do this is in nature, at the beach during sunset or in the grass. Also, I was sitting in the passenger seat while my mom was driving one day, and I just watched everything go by and realized how much we have to be doing. I was thinking about every person in the cars and wondering where they were going, where they had to be. Sometimes we let our schedules overtake us. We let our money making and obligations hold us down. One of my biggest fears is this. I don't ever want to be caught in that cycle, even though I realize that I'm heading there. I feel like a lot of the time we focus too much on that. I feel like we have to connect with nature. Just to realize where you are in nature. Look at a flower petal or a blade of grass. For that moment, it becomes your whole world. Think about how it works, how these beautiful things grow out of the earth. I feel like we have to take time to return to innocence. How to be a child again and wonder and be amazed by every little thing we see. Because everything is so amazing. On the Travel Channel there was a commercial for a program about tribesmen from some exotic country who have never been to America, and who went to America for the first time. They showed clips of these tribesmen being so amazed with every little thing. They opened a bottle of wine and the cork came out, and they acted like it was the craziest thing. They were driving through the city and looking up at the skyscrapers and were counting how many windows there were, like little kids. It made me realize more just how amazing everything is. These tribal men coming from the simplest of lives to our complicated, brilliant existence in these privileged countries. When we go through our everyday lives, all these privileges and luxuries are so normal to us. We don't stop and realize how privileged we are to have clean running water and beds and computers, et cetera. So, to sum it up, just stop and realize the world, just let everything be and realize how incredibly lucky we are. Oh! And Happy Thanksgiving yesterday! This song kind of grasps this idea: Return to Innocence

I'm not in the deepest of moods, but I will respond as best I can. I agree. I don't feel like anybody truly knows me either. I don't think we can ever be truly understood, inside out, but another person. Everyone's so different, there's no way someone can completely understand or agree with another. And it really is crazy how different we act around other people. I feel like out of anyone I know, its my dad and sister who don't know me very well. My mom knows me sort of well. But its crazy that my family have known eachother for seventeen years, but my 2 best friends whom I've known for 5 years are like my family. Its like we're another part of eachother. We know eachother inside out. And I wish it was different. I'd love for my family to be best friends, to know eachother so well. But its just so hard. Perhaps its because of the age difference. I think beauty is life. Life is beauty. I think everything is beautiful, even if it takes ages to find the beauty within it. Beauty is in the fact that we're flawed, in the fact that we try to look 'beautiful' or handsome, try to be a bit more perfect. Our imperfection are beautiful. Its beautiful because it what proves we're human. Beauty is the balance between love and hate, bad and good. Beauty is the fact that the shadow proves the sunshine. Beauty is our bodies, the fact that we have hearts and blood flowing through our veins, the fact that we feel and love and have eyeballs. I feel that beauty is EVERYTHING. There is something beautiful in all of us. I also agree that no one is ugly. Everyone has a beautiful trait that we don't have, and that we want. I don't think beauty can be defined in words either. I don't know if beauty is our connection with the being that made everything. It seems very possible. Everything is possible...

I know hahah. It randomly showed up in my subscribed threads
