Quote of the Day

There are moments when one has to choose between living one's own life, fully, entirely, completely - or dragging out some false, shallow, degrading existence that the world in it's hypocrisy demands.

Many a nights I lay awake…

Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, “Where have I gone wrong?”
Then a voice says to me, “This is going to take more than one night.”

- Charles M. Schulz (1922 - 2000), Charlie Brown in “Peanuts”

Many a nights I lay here awake,
Thinking of what I’ve done,
All the mistakes I’ve made,
All the problems from which I’ve run.

I know I’ve done wrong,
I know that I’ve erred,
But what can I do?
all my plans smudged and blurred.

I promise myself I’ll do better tomorrow,
I promise I won’t make the same slip,
I know I can improve myself,
I know I need to get a grip.

I slowly fall asleep,
Into the world of dreams,
The promises fade away,
I’ll make the same mistakes it seems.

Night after night,
the same thoughts go through my mind,
Yet, why can’t I see the truth,
Why am I so blind?
