Now, however, you have lost it, and wish desperatly to go back and relive it all. Because you focus too much on what has already happened, you have a problem with the future and don't really wish to go there. You have mourned this loss for quite some time now, and are too used to it to let the familarity go. This situation is making you frustrated, because you can't do anything about it, but you remain unwilling to release your memories.
Billy: (to Homer Simpson) Hey Cannonball, I like your statement. When life takes a cheap shot at you, you stand your ground. (extending his arm for a handshake) Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins.Homer: (shakes Billy's hand) Homer Simpson, smiling politely. You know, my kids think you're the greatest. And thanks to your gloomy music, they've finally stopped dreaming of a future that I can't possibly provide.Billy: Well, we try to make a difference. Billy: Hey Homer, looks like our next stop is your hometown, Springfield.D'Arcy: Is it true that we have to bring our own water? Homer: We have a little rule back home. "If it's brown, drink it down. If it's black, send it back."Jimmy: The hometown show's the big one, Homer.James: Yeah, all the people who called you a weirdo in high school get to see what a successful freak you've become.D'Arcy: Hey, I wasn't a weirdo. I was in the audio/visual club.Homer: I'll miss ya Pumpkins, but I just can't share your bleak world view. I've got too much to live for.Billy: We envy you Homer. All we have is our legions of fans, our millions of dollars and our youth. (stops to think for a second, then smiles and yells) Woo hoo! Let's go buy fur coats!

About me: My Name is philip kenny.I'm twentyone years old and i'm irish.I'm a heavy reader and enjoy any kind of music from neil young to billy corgan.It seems people can't be genuine to one another anymore.We are happy to wear disguises,false faces as it were as being true seems abhorrent to our senses, i seek those who have conviction in who they are and are not afraid to make an honest friend, i've had some negative encounters on this site but for the most part i really enjoy the people i encounter musicans, poets ,filmakers ,normal people its this confluence this utter variety that makes for something uniquely thrilling. My hand goes out to those who revel in the joy of creation.I'm also extremely interested in perhaps starting to get my own work recognised anyone who thinks i have something to offer please contact me i would love to hear from you Give me a word if your ever in the neighbourhood.Also anyone up for a lively philosophical debate or just a chat is more then welcome conversation is one of my greatest joys anyway much love.Phil<33.. --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> --> START BZOINK.COM SURVEY CODE -->
