Going to face the Monday with the biggest smile   ever

cause i  was brought up right

i've got London

and Silwood :)

and i'll always have my home :P

.x.

.just a number.

Been a very interesting week for me.

mainly cause everything that been happening has been out of my control.

for your average little sister and daughter that never happens.

all that I've been able to do it trust

trust the new "powers that be"

trust friends

trust family

and i think I've learnt to trust myself.

all comes down to proper communication.

but thats for another day, song and blog post

earlier in the week I bought myself a CD, an actual disk. I did not find the CD online or get it from a friend. I listened o the first 3 song and was like yes. mine. 

and wow.

i haven't been able to get past track 7 properly cause the car trips haven't been long enough

just the first 3 tracks are already good enough for me.

so 

if you can 

find Adele's CD 21

and have a listen

.

"She has revealed that 21 was also inspired by folk rock band Mumford & Sons's album Sigh No More "

"It’s different from “19”, it’s about the same things but in a different light. I deal with things differently now. I’m more patient, more honest, more forgiving and more aware of my own flaws, habits and principles. Something that comes with age I think. So fittingly this record is called “21”

- Adele Laurie Blue Adkins

play safe kids

.x.

.breathsighbreath. and laugh.

 this was written by a very good friend of mine

it made me cry from happiness cause i think i know 

but i do

cause we know

(loving inside jokes on the interweb right now)

 .
it must be hard to breath in your bubble
i know it’s hard in mine.
(the silence will floor you, silence will roar
as we sigh to be angels and soar
but-)
we’re nothing by the laws of the universe
but wisps of air and life,
full of nothing and going nowhere.
(tiny bubbles manage better
in the whirlpool of god’s emptying bathtub
than we do
alone in our fishbowls
of glass and iron.)
.

i am thanking you my lady cause this means so much to me

(i read this just after i replied to your mail this morning)

you , offically, just "talkedwithme"

and i. youngone, love you

failure - laura marling

this song could come across as sad and depressing
but the last 4 lines make me smile like no other.
when I first heard it is reminded me of a new friend and talented man
Mr Joshua Grierson


but take a read. 

.

He used to be a singer in a rock and roll band

He would write the songs and I'd tremble at his hand

But oh, la, la, he lost poetic ethic

And his songs were pathetic, he's a failure now

And he used to be the life and soul of everyone around

You'd never catch him looking up and never see him down

But oh, la la, he couldn't raise a smile

No, not for a while and he's a failure now

Don't cry, child, you've got so much more to live for

Don't cry, child, you've got something I would die for

And if it comes to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again

'Cause so many don't and so many go unnamed

People push right past me shouting their exclaims

A preacher pushes me aside and asked to wash my sins

I said no, la, la, if he made me in his image

Then he?s a failure too

And I used to need a couple o? people keep my head down

Now I need a whole lot more to keep me on the ground

But oh, la, la, I gave up something and I gave it up for nothing

And I am a failure now

Don?t cry, child, you've got so much more to live for

Don?t cry, child, you've got something I would die for

And if it comes to the rain, just be glad you'll smile again

'Cause so many don?t and so many go unnamed

.

dive safe everyone

its becoming winter and the roads are tricky.

lynyrd skynyrd - simple man

want to learn a quick lesson?
listen to men who know what they are singing about. 

.

Mama told me when I was young 

Come sit beside me, my only son 

And listen closely to what I say. 

And if you do this 

It'll help you some sunny day. 

Oh, take your time... Don't live too fast, 

Troubles will come and they will pass. 

Go find a woman, oh baby, you'll find love, 

And don't forget son, 

There is someone up above.

And be a simple kind of man. 

Be something you love and understand. 

Baby be a simple, kind of man. 

Oh, won't you do this for me son, 

If you can?

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold 

All that you need, is in your soul, 

And you can do this, oh baby, if you try. 

All that I want for you my son, 

Is to be satisfied.

And be a simple kind of man. 

Be something you love and understand. 

Baby be a simple, kind of man. 

Oh, won't you do this for me son, 

If you can?

Boy, don't you worry... you'll find yourself. 

Follow your heart, lord, and nothing else. 

And you can do this, oh baby, if you try. 

All that I want for you my son, 

Is to be satisfied.

And be a simple kind of man. 

Be something you love and understand. 

Baby be a simple, kind of man. 

Oh, won't you do this for me son, 

If you can?
