Thats my girl Amanda! Im proud of you. Amen to the line! I love you. So EMILY! I need to know your address like ASAP k kid? Oh and umm guess what Im wearing??? Lace? no....I'm wearing a lil' Tee Shirt with colorful silohettes of DINOSAURS! AT LEAST 30 OF THEM! with hearts...I couldnt resist. Just 5 bucks...Just to sweep you and Daniel and lil more off your feet;)

So I was just listening to Carlos Jones and I wanted to share some of his music with you....then when I read the lyrics below...it was encouraging because thats something I try to do. I know not one of us can save the world...but we CAN make a difference. If any of us have had someone make a difference in our day or life...we KNOW we can do it for the next person. So then I thought...hmmm though I Love John Mayer... "Waiting on the world to Change" just pisses me off!!!...(Em, sowwy I know ya like it;) ...I liked it for a second but no it goes against everything I stand for... No we can't change the government or the war or whatever else someone wants to gripe about but each of us gotta GET OFF OUR ASS and do something before we can think we have a leg to stand on....even if its as "simple" as living the lyrics below....

( http://www.carlosjones.com/ Check Carlos Jones' website out. He is a reggae artist right here in Cleveland. He has been playin here since...I think 78 if I remember correctly. He plays at the Grog Shop. He use to live in Coventry back in the day. I wrote him once on myspace...and he wrote me back with a lengthy email. He writes and sings real positive lyrics. I have his CD. Its positive and uplifting...lots of truth from the bible ....here's a lil' something he wrote in April... )


Leave A Trail

I'm going to...Leave a trail of peace now wherever I go
so that there will be a path for the next one to follow
I'm going to leave a trail of love now wherever I go
and then there might be something left for them tomorrow
Sometimes it so overwhelming when you see how much wrong is going on
That you don’t think you can make any difference
and your confidence has gone
But if you just do the best that you can do to make it better where you are
It can create a positive example
and that is always a good start
why don't you leave a trail of cleanness wherever you go?
And then there will be a path for the next one to follow
Why don't you leave a trail of kindness wherever you go?
and there might be something left for them tomorrow
If you're worried 'bout your future
well you've got good reason to
Cause we've been using up more than we put back
and the bill is coming due
now I don't know how long its gonna last
but I'll just do the best I can
To shine some light in this darkness For every woman, child and man
I'm going to Leave a trail of love now wherever I go
so that there will be a path for the next one to follow
I'm going to leave a trail of peace now wherever I go
and then there may be another day for them tomorrow
I say the world is in a crisis
we better wake up before it's too late
If we don’t stop and change the situation
well then destruction will be our fate
Now, if you're worried about your futuret
hen you've got good reason to
Cause we've been using up more than we put back
and the bill is now coming due
I said I don't know how long its gonna last
but I'll just do the best that I can
I'm gonna shine a little light in this darkness
For every woman, child and man
I'm going to Leave a trail of peace now wherever I go
So there will be a path for the next one to follow
I'm going to leave a trail of love now wherever I go
and there might be some thing left for them tomorrow
Why don't you leave a trail of cleanness wherever you go?
So that there will be a path for the children to follow
I say why don't you leave a trail of oneness wherever you go?
So that there may be another day for them tomorrow
So why don’t you leave a trail…Leave a trail…Carlos Jones - April '07

One day too good to be true ....
