This Darkness Has Got to Give 1

Does anybody else here feel like lately things have just been going downhill both on a personal level and also in the world around us? It just feels like life has been beating down on me without even letting me gasp for breath. I mean how many punches can I take before I'm down for the count? Bush getting reelected is just the icing on the cake. I can't remember the last time I could say I was truly happy. I will conclude this rather sad post with a few lines from my favorite lyricist Mr. Robert Hunter himself:
Now I don't know but I've been told If the horse don't pull you got to carry the load.
I don't know whose back's that strong; Maybe find out before too long.
One way or another, one way or another, One way or another, this darkness has got to give.

its been a year that shit has sucked for me... drummer wich was my BOY left the band... came home blasted (more than half a huge ass bottle of vodka in 2 hours on an empty stomach) passed out on the bed faoming out my mouth and bleeding out my nose.... my parents thought i was coked up so i told them i had only drank and smoked....BIG MISTAKE now im forced to not smoke.... i dropped out of school and could only find shitty part time jobs. my boy got caught smoking too so hes forced to be sober too... shits depressing for me... nothing too serious but its ass... but shit is hopefully looking up im going for my ged next monday, i just got a cool second job at a skateshop (i get to go snowboarding for FREE once a week!) so ima mack it to them sexy white girls and get some pussy that come into the store.... yEAH!and ima start audio technology school in january (if i pass ged and make good money from both my jobs) oh yeah and my boy is cultivating shrooms so i can trip and if i get drug tested im clean! yea! but bush could eat my shit... fucking bitch...
set goals for yourself and follow through and be optamistic(sp?)... its the only way for shit to improve... a 311 quote went something like this... if shit is not good nothing is going to improve while ur negative so start thinking positive and make shit happen for yourself....
but i know the stress of trying but nothing happening.... i got a full time job but 2 weeks later it went out of business...i applied for a ged test like 5 months ago and they wouldnt call me in.. i coldnt find a damn good job after the full time....and my band was ass.... but now we got a cd coming out and we are going to a G-love concert and we are gonna give them our cd and hopefully they will jam... im not trying to get hooked up or anything im just trying to get him to jam

Like it's been said already, "We're ALL in this together." "If I see one of you by my side and you fall, I'll be there to help you up with a smile".
Hang in there.
-------------------- The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life, your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away. But they're not punishing you, they're freeing your soul. So, if you're frightened of dying and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away, but if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth... bloodflower6 Yay for Pornography!

I feel you Charlie.
In the last four months I have:
1) Went far into debt 2) Got arrested for having my bong 3) Hit a deer with my car and $2050 worth of damage caused 4) Lost some friends over dumb shit they did 5) Was hit by another guy and totalled my car 6) Watched George Dubble-ya be re-elected
There's been other shit, but there are a few of the highlights. I don't know how long it's been since I was happy either, other than when I'm fucked up so bad I forget about reality.. and man, it's sad when you have to get obliterated to enjoy yourself isn't it?
I remember when I was younger and life seemed so great.. boy that's one hallucination I wish I wouldn't have believed now, as it's so disappointing when you realize what life really is like. Maybe I'm just looking at it all wrong and need to take in everything as a lesson in life or something optimistic like that.. but I'm a cynic.

KC- these words are for you, my brother! Much love and hope. We will survive!
If you get confused listen to the music play
The sun will shine in my back door someday. The sun will shine in my back door someday. March winds will blow all my troubles away.
Reach out your hand if your cup be empty, If your cup is full may it be again, Let it be known there is a fountain, That was not made by the hands of men.
Every silver linings got a touch of grey I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive.
Inspiration, move me brightly. Light the song with sense and color; Hold away despair, more than this I will not ask. Faced with mysteries dark and vast, statements just seem vain at last.
Who can stop what must arrive now? Something new is waiting to be born Dark as the night you're still by my side shine inside . Gone are the days we stopped to decide where we should go, we just ride. Gone are the broken eyes we saw through in dreams gone, both dream and lie. Life may be sweeter for this, I don't know, Feels like it might be alright, While Lady Lullaby sings plainly through you Love still rings true. Never could reach it, just slips away but I try.
Making it too, without love in a dream it will never come true.
-------------------- Once in awhile you can get shown the light In the strangest of places if you look at it right...
