The Climb



I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"

Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking

But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose

Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

If I Die Young

A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Uh oh
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need them, oh

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had, just enough time

So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done

Get to know your mind

Why we love nacissists (at first)

Why we lie to ourselves

Why we get over bad moods sooner than we predict.

Caffeine makes us easier to persuade

Why we all stink as intuitive psychologists

How far will you go to be obedient to authority?

The influence of fleeting attraction

Random memories

I was just remembering today, while writing with a Pilot pen, how it used to be a luxury, say, 15 years ago. How we had to use pencil for I think first 2-3 grades, and then we moved on to using ink-pens. That was the time when you could see students with ink spots all over their hands, and shirts and pants and skirts. Ahh the fun times. Apparently ink-pens are supposed to make your handwriting good. I guess I just didn't use them long enough :P
