Absolutely Inspiring

so a while back I wrote an entry about people who inspire me.
well let me add the people in this video to that list.
the guts and courage and passion of these Egyptians make my soul happy.
and i have so much respect for them.
i cannot really articulate why.
but i think it is because they are facing something so much bigger than anything i will probably face in my life and they are not giving up.
they are fighting back.
they are not backing down.
that is inspiring for a person like me who has not endured adversity even remotely close to this because if they can fight back when faced with something grand, surely, i can fight back when i encounter my small "battles"

but

despite my previous post i would like to say...

i AM thankful for all that is good in my life.

i am aware that even in darkness there is light.

can someone please explain?

at times like these, i can't help but wonder what exactly karma is paying me back for.

i am not perfect, but i know i am not a terrible person.

so what is with this plate of shit i have been continually served with this past year?

i guess i will try pretend to be positive and say that you can't have highs unless you have lows.

i look forward to desperately cannot wait for the high...

New Year, New Music.

Do yourself a favor and resolve to listen to better music this year!

Start with listening to THIS.

I guarantee that you will thank me after, and if you don't then no biggie... You will just have to hear me make fun of the type of music you like all year ;-)
