Oh by the way, if you enjoy one of the articles, or simply would like to comment one 'em, please do drop a line since I love reader feedback.
Right now I'm home all alone and just relaxing after a long day of hectic work. Nobody around but me and my trusty old computer. Which means...Wahoo!! Now's my chance to run around the house butt naked! It's been one of those days where everthing that could possibly go wrong does. Well, I managed to keep my head on anyhow. But I'm enjoying this time to myself in my house. Even though I much enjoy my friends, whom are my room-mates.....sometimes, a guy just needs time to himself. Why do you think alot of guys enjoy going fishing out in the boon-dogs alone. This is the time that I can have my music blaring without anyone asking if I can turn it down a slight. Infact, right now that's exactly what I'm doing, having my music blaring to the max.........hopefully my computer speakers can handle it. Lately, I've been really getting into Japanese music. The one I'm listening to now is titled, Morning Glow by Mayuko Aoki. Of course, I have no clue as to what she is saying but man, the lyrics are hauntingly riveting and dreamy! I love the Japanese language and would love to learn it but too stubborn to go out and get me a tutor....or take classes. Besides, there's more of an "awe" inspiring madness to it when you can't understand what they are actually saying. And if you do find out, the song just loses its appeal. Strang how the mind works.....or is it just me? Either way, I've been downloading a bunch of Japanese music and playing them endlessly. Hmmm, maybe I should go visit Japan one of these days then. Better yet, maybe I can date a cute Japanese girl? Oh ya, definately that!
Here's a question for any readers out there. If you had a chance to be Superman for one day and save as many people as possible from chaos, destruction, death, sorrow, pain and strife, at the cost of just a single life by the end of the day, would you do it? The trade off is that you will have saved thousands upon thousands of people, possibly even more at the cost of one insignificant life...yours. Would you do it? Yes, it's a tough decision, one that even the most sincere and thoughtful person would hesitate on. Knowing what you know of this world, with all of it's wrongs and chaos and death, and the destruction of life, the hostility, the violence, the hatred, would it make it easier to come to a conclusion? Maybe not so, even though you may wish with all of your heart to save the world. The reason why I ask this is because I had a dream the other night. I had a dream that some higher power, call it God if you will, but this higher power came to me and gave me such a choice. And I sat there and sat there, pondering the time away.........and pondering even more so. And continually I sat there, weighing the choice that was given me as the time whispered by and the chaos of the world ensued with wanton destruction.......with famine, with death, with pain and sorrow from the onslaught of the Reapers sweep. Until finally, I lifted my head only to see a baren land, swept clean of precious life, of friends, of family, of brothers and sisters of mankind. I wept bitterly and cried out to that higher power asking why! And over and over I kept saying to myself, why did I hesitate! Why did I not make a quick decision, a right decision........to be that Superman just for one day. Even if it meant.................. my own life.
