I mean, how do you know you're really here?

How do you know if this is all a dream?

Or if it's someone elses dream?

White Europeans were responsible for the creation of Western civilization, & other great things like Ancient Greece, The Roman Empire, & the Renaissance in Europe.
They also created most of the first world nations of today.(All of Europe, Russia, United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Argentina, and Uruguay.)
They were also responsible for great xploreres like Lief Eriksson, Christopher Columbus, Ferdinand Magellan, Marco Polo, Francisco Pizarro.
Great artists like Leonardo Da Vinci, Ludwig Van Beethoven, Johann Sebastian Bach, Pablo Ruiz Picasso. Great inventors like John Logie Baird, Karl Benz, Tim Berners-Lee. Great philosophers like Archimedes, Aristotle, Socrates, Nietchze.
But when some people talk about history they act like the only things White people ever did was own slaves, & subjugate/torment non-Europeans, & cause them misery.

It's a Villanelle.

-Morning-

I always smile when I look to the skies.
In its gray-blue color, what do I see?
The beauty of morning is in his eyes.

The sweet morning brings me soft lonely sighs,
My first morning thoughts are of thee,
I always smile when I look to the skies.

When he stole my heart in a pirate's guize,
I said, "I love you most passionately."
The beauty of morning is in his eyes.

In the sun's rays, tokens of our love lie.
The sun on my face is his kiss to me.
I always smile when I look to the skies.

His love is the reason my tears are dry.
It's through his love that my heart is made free.
The beauty of the morning is in his eyes.

May we never have to say our good-byes,
May our love grow like the strong, old oak tree.
I always smile when I look to the skies,
the beauty of morning is in his eyes.

Write everything you think (even if it is stupid) but something you really think is a true.
Regards and thanks for been in the way you are.

Escriban lo que se les ocurra, aunque piensen que es una boludez, estupidez, tontera o como quieran llamarlo, pero que realmente sientan que es una verdad.
Saludos y muchas gracias por ser como son.

HOLDING ON

We need someone to hold
at night, during the day, always
and we hold on like there is no tommorow
as the winds blow and trees fall and rain pours
But we can't hold on too tight
Every time we do...
Death comes and takes the ones we love the most away
Not the ones we don't care about, the ones most dear
maybe it was because we held on too tight
or maybe...

Losing you

The cloud changes its face
just because it saw me first
I am just surviving each day
In time it will pass
But for now, I cry inside
Till I can cry on the outside
Till the fog is lifted and the pain is gone.
I'll always remember you, Always.

University
Knowledge is as the universe expanding in every way.
How will it keep its intregrity? If this follows it can't stay!
Look, see here, the apple on the ground?
After its fallen from the tree, it doesn't hang around!

Focus is as gravity that keeps things quite on track.
Here is one of learning's tools with integrity quite intact!
Look, see here, the witness of the moon?
I must ask you here this day, will it be falling soon?

We are as the wondering child playing with many toys,
While finding how things work today,
we're making a lot of noise.
Look, see here, we grow this way, to gather what remains.
We then move on to another stage to focus in our reigns.

If you could only read 5 books for the rest of your live, which would you choose? Religious texts don't count, we'll assume you are allowed those, and you won't need any survival guides or anything. Just the 5, for fun, books you can read over and over again. Mine are:
1. Pride and Prejudice
2. Chronicles of Narnia (probably shouldn't count, but I have a huge book that includes all the novels :))
3. Last of the Breed by Louis L'amour
4. Count of Monte Cristo
5. The Illiad (or the Oddesey)

I just realized I like too many series...
