Whats It All About?

Its all about the twisting, turning, thinking, learning, bass pounding coffee grounding, love-making, risk-taking, life, yo.

I believe that everyone deserves to be treated like a human being, to not be hungry, to not be afraid. I believe that a country has the responsibility to take care of its citizens, and I believe that everyone has the responsibility to look after those in their community, the global community. Finally, I believe that every human life is as equally valuable as the next; it doesn't have a price tag. You could say I'm an idealist, but really I'm just not willing to settle for less.

"If I Die Tomorrow" by Liz Gustafson

if i die tomorrow [at least i've lived]


i won't live my life waiting around
always wasting my time
instead i'll chase what i want
and when my feet can't go on, i'll crawl
'cause if i die tomorrow
then at least i'll have tried

i won't live my life in fear
always bracing myself for the wrong
instead i'll plunge into the water
hoping the water ins't too cold
'cause if i die tomorrow
then at least i'll have felt alive

i won't live my life in caution
always taking the safer way
instead i'll take a leap of faith
enjoying the free fall
'cause if i die tomorrow
then at least i'll have lived

my callused feet and broken bones
are proof to these words i've said
'cause if i die tomorrow
at least i'll have the scars
to show the life i've lived
