Whoa, hoa, hoa!...

I made the "Revurb Nations top 30" on the PA Folk/ acoustic artists charts today!...Im #28...Heh, not the best but hey I'm on the charts!...

I don't know about this....

Today is a day, when I have not too much to say.

Photography...

Was messing around with my camera alot today...here's some of the stuff I came up with, hope ya like it.

All that and a deck of cards...

Rains comin' down,
It soaks these city streets,
While the wind's still blowing,
Whispering through the trees.

My guitar sings me a melody,
A lullaby so to speak,
it brings my soul to rest for a bit,
And my mind a certain peace.

The piano tells me a story,
While I write the words onto the page,
Although I've written it a thousand times,
It never ceases to amaze,

I look outside and see the rain,
Falling gently to the ground,
As I listen closely for the refrain,
How I love these sweet sounds.

All or nothing...

Hand in hand,
Looking into your eyes,
Not saying a word,
Cause' words can't really describe,

The way I feel right now,
Just sitting here with you,
With you in my arms,
There's nothing else I'd rather do,

I could just stay here,
And stay here forever,
It seems that I just forget about time,
When we are together,

I love to hear your voice,
And see your smile,
I love the words you write,
And your artistic style,

I know you've heard it before,
but your everything to me,
You are amazing, awesome and beautiful,
and your all I'll ever need.

My goal.

Alright guys, so this is my goal...I am going to write a post everyday for the next month....here it goes.

.....

Just thinking about nothing...
Which is something,
You cannot think about nothing,
obviously if your thinking about it,
it has to be something,
how can you think about that which you have never known?
And how can you determine what you are thinking about,
If the thought had never existed in the first place,
Just thinking about nothing....which is something....

"What the......"

When I go walking down the street often times people will turn and see me and say something...either to me or after I have passed by. I have gotten some nice compliments, and also some not so nice comments...


I guess what I am trying to get at here is my image...what people think when they see me...
it is really quite a prejudice and odd way of thinking. Most times people either think I am a rebel, druggie or just hardcore...I am really none of those things, If I was to describe myself to you I would say that I am more of a laid back, fun loving guy...well, most times anyways...
But the point is that too often somebody wont even give you a chance just based on the way you look, and most times the way they judge you is completely wrong...


More than likely I will end up having to change my appearance just so that I will be able to land a job somewhere...hopefully not, but still, my chances are pretty slim...
Its just so weird that you can't really have your own image...its sort of like you have to submit to the world to get somewhere...and if you don't then you are just rejected....
People in general don't want to hang out with someone who is uncool and has no taste in style...but you know what, I don't really think I want to hang out with such a person anyways...I like individuality...you can have your style , I'll take what I've got...every man to his own.


And you know what, I say screw it...for as long as I can anyways, bring on the dreads ,bring on those weird shades, bring on those tight neon pants...and let nothing come in the way of expressing yourself...whether through art, music, what you wear, or whatever you do...be who you want to be, do what you want to do...who cares what anyone else thinks, not me anyways.

Learning....

So what should I say,
Scared to speak, let alone move,
"I suppose I shoulds" filled my head,
and I'd end up standing still,
Until one day when it happened by chance,
That my thoughts carried through,
It happened so gradually,
and everything is still new,
Not quite sure of what Im doing,
But im learning pretty quick,
I've learned that if I offer my hand to hold hers,
She wont think Im insane,
Ive learned that saying nothing can say everything,
Ive learned to take in the moment,
Ive learned how to laugh,
Ive learned so much in these weeks that have passed,
And so as I have many times heard it said,
"Then in the end,
the love you take,
is equal to the love....
you make"....
