Arts & Humanities - 26 August 2007

I would like to know if there is some research in North America about this interesting fact. I didn't find much information in Brazil. I just know that they stayed here about 800 years, they built some cities in Amazon, northeast coast and Rio de Janeiro was first habited by them (there is some writing in phoenician alphabet in a place called Pedra da Gavea). There is some descriptions in Greek ancient texts talking about cities in Amazon region. These researches are new, and (I don't know why) we don't learn it at school.

What is the meaning of life? I often wonder why I am here, what is the purpose, what is the hidden truth behind everything? Or is there even a deeper meaning at all? Is everything just coincindence, random, spiratic, and sudden, all based on choice and luck? Do we create our own destiny or is there some preplanned layout for each life? Are the people I have met over the years of my life, ones that have both come and gone, were they brought to me for a reason? The things I have gone through....were these lessons that I was supposed to TAKE something from? Please help, there are so many possibilities. It drives me mad! I can't become religious because I can't settle on just one theory or thought. Anyone have any theories that make A LOT of sense?? I'm 22yrsold by the way. Any input is greatly appreciated, thanks.

Dazed and Confused Reality Sitting In……..



I believe that we belong together
I know I should be convinced
We need to quit deceiving our self’s.
The games need to end
The lies and pain inside
Back building like a storm
Ready to cut loose,
Ready to run
Ready to be free, ready for a whole new me
Tell me to seek help tell me to get pride,
I said I was fine, yet once more I am not heard
Am speaking into the wind
Its not blowing
I talk
Nothing
Nothing is heard….
We were meant for each other
You tell me that you love me
Every thing is better
But because of you
I have to break away
From all
Hopes dreams and even my own fantasy
All is lost
I never stray to far from home
The leash just broke
Nothing left to keep me interested in being home
Alone
Guilt
My urge to convenes fails
We fall
Hit the rocks at the bottom
Break
Apart
A force to be reckoned with was met, WE LOST….
Hope
Faith
Our self’s
Self control
Love lust
All emotion
Some how I know that we should still be together

With every lie that was told and every truth that wasn’t said, with every beat came an ach , came loneliness and depressions, with every truth that was questioned comes deception . Some times it wasn’t a lie but it wasn’t the truth. With every thought came an idea, a goal set forth to obtain some type of an achievement. We all can think of some type of scenario were we Know that some one didn’t say what was needed , but said what was meant to make some one be leave that they feel better.. But it didn’t last very long maybe a day.. two or three. May be a week but that person in the end was broken .. That person was lied to. That person felt broken hearted because of a (“Friend”) who thought that they did a good thing to help out some one. With every good intension at the peak, nobody really expects them selves to be at the bottom of the Totem pole but that’s usually just how it happened to turn about . The old saying keep your enemies closer is the best thing when a close and personal relationship goes sour. With every second that goes by not used for proper communication and actions, so much is left out on. With time being misused by miss leaded people , should have enough reasons to stop the lies which isn’t the truth but isn’t a deception of the truth . People should relies what exactly is at stake. The bigger picture is that one day we will know every thing about somebody and that no matter how hard one can try to hide the truth , some one already knows, and that they probably already told some one else. So to be better off being open for everybody then to selected few would be most better to tell all then to not say any thing at all.

This one's called.....

Mad!

Let's get in a huff about stuff,
have a fit about diddly squit.
I want to breath fire, and kick dirt in the shin,
make a din.

Being awkward is a game of,
something unashamed of.
Hissy, wollocks, blinkin, beedin, muddy, cuss tard,
I feel a bit hard.

Don't give me lip I'll give yer jip,
I'm worryingly good at being a bit ch.
You wouldn't like me when I'm angwee,
I won't be calm get it, I haven't said dang it, yet!

Lets just flip out and move about,
I will wrinkle my face and be a disgrace.
Smash up fings just cause I can't play nice,
it's full moon madness that brings on me badness.

I used to be a dyslexic werewolf but I'm alright K'nooooooooooo!?

I woke up today with a tear in my eye
Its been nearly a year since we had to say goodbye
Its been so hard since u went away
God took you and we live with the pain every day
I look at the pictures the smile on ur face
A smile and a laugh no one can replace.
Come the 4th September we will relive the day
That our hearts broke and we were never the same
On that day we will relive the pain
Of never having you here again
I cant believe Its been a year

I think of you every day
What you are doing and if your ok
Do you look down on us
From the blue skies
Do you hear our prayers and here our cries
I miss our chats you were so understanding
Always the first one to lend a hand
We miss you everyday
I know I keep saying it
But I cant believe god took you away

He must of needed an angel
And I know he chose the best
I hope your looking down on us
As we eat and play and rest
You are our guardian angel
I know your still around
You never leave our hearts
Even when we are down
We love you more than ever
And your memory lives on
For we will tell the story of great uncle phil
Even now that you are gone.

I called,
I waited for a response
It rained
It snowed
No response
Expected to welcome you with open arms?
Open heart
Open mind
I know what is wanted
Do I give in?
Do I give up?
How do I go about it?
Oh my god
My mind is racing
Speeding around
I didn’t get what I needed.
I didn’t get what was expected
Love
Respect
Trust
I never thought about it like that
Cheating
Lying
didn’t love me
Never did
Why did I get played?
I didn’t expect it
Loved him
Loved dreams
Maybe that’s all it was
A Dream
Gone wrong
Gone horribly Wrong
Abusive
Deceitful
Deceived
I thought I was in love
I thought I was loved
I thought we were more then one night
I thought we meant more to each other
I thought wrong
But how?….
Blinded
