hey everyone. i've been thinking a lot about this song... what do you guys think the meaning is? is it regarding the american dream or american identity or individuality? any other ideas? I DON'T BELIEVE - Paul Simon Acts of kindness, like breadcrumbs in a fairytale forest Lead us past dangers as light melts the darkness But I don't believe, and I'm not consoled I lean closer to the fire, but I'm cold The earth was born in a storm The waters receded, the mountains were formed "The universe loves a drama," you know And ladies and gentlemen this is the show I got a call from my broker The broker informed me I'm broke I was dealing my last hand of poker My cards were useless as smoke Oh, guardian angel Don't taunt me like this, on a clear summer evening as soft as a kiss My children are laughing, not a whisper of care My love is brushing her long chestnut hair I don't believe a heart can be filled to the brim Then vanish like mist as though life were a whim Maybe the heart is part of the mist And that's all that there is or could ever exist Maybe and maybe and maybe some more Maybe's the exit that I'm looking for I got a call from my broker The broker said he was mistaken Maybe some virus or brokerage joke And he hopes that my faith isn't shaken Acts of kindness Like rain in a draught Release the spirit with a whoop and a shout I don't believe we were born to be sheep in a flock

definitely more than friends if sex is involved.

so basically, i cant tell if this guy likes me or not... he comes over and talks to me sometimes, but sometimes he just ignores me. he picked me to be on his team, and stuff at school. He sometimes just randomly comes up and talks to me, but often, he just acts like im not there. i heard from friends that he likes me, he does act nervous sometimes, but im not sure. i really dont know. and i dont know how i feel about him either... thanks for the input!

hey everybody, so basically there is this guy and he liked me once, but i justkinda ignored him, so he kind of stopped trying to talk to me. i feel really bad and i just want to at least be his friend. i would go out with him. people tell me that he likes me, but im not really sure, hes one of those guys where you cant tell. but, anyway i want to talk to him and maybe start something. oh yeah, after ignoring him, i did talk to him again and then summer came and now its a new school year and i havent talked to him at all this year. i just wish he'd make the first move, cuz im intimidated by his awkwardness at first. he'll just look at you, for a while cuz he cant think of what to say. but he's really sweet and i like him. so any ideas?

hey everyone, i really like this guy, and i think he liked me too at one time, but he's so quiet and shy i can't really tell, but a lot of his friends told me. he's really hard to approach because of how quiet he is. I dunno, does he want me to talk to him, or not. I just feel so frustrated! i've only talked to him once or twice, and he just randomly asks me things like about homework and stuff. i don't know if he still likes me and i dont know what i should do, any suggestions? thanx so much

i'm pretty quiet, but i'm not that shy, not like him. i dunno, its hard to start a conversation with him.

hey everyone, i really like this guy, and i think he liked me too at one time, but he's so quiet and shy i can't really tell, but a lot of his friends are my friends and they told me. he's really hard to approach because of how quiet he is. I dunno, does he want me to talk to him, or not. I just feel so frustrated! he like hangs around like he doesn't have the nerve to talk, but he never really does talk. And to add to that, i have a really immature friend who found out that i like him, and she's giving me hell, and threatening to tell him and stuff. what do i do?

hey everyone, I need to know these: It's mostly the financial of having a baby, but my older sister is pregnant, we're all really happy for her, she's like 24, but she keeps worrying about the bills, and i have a job and i want to help. 1. How much does it cost for each checkup before birth and how many checkups do you need, during the pregnancy? 2. how much does it cost to pay for the delivery and the night stays after birth? 3. how much does it cost for each doctor visit after the baby is born? Thanks is advance!!!

I agree, i think you should give him his space and show him that you don't deserve to be treated like that. You should stop worrying, i know its hard, but he can take care of himself. Go to a movie, spend time with friends, find something productive to do. But, you should pick up when he calls, you need to respond to him and show him how you want to be treated.

Maybe he wants you back, maybe he's tyring to prove to you that he can change.

I want to make it up to him. I just feel bad about how i treated him. i wasn't open to him, and i just want to say sorry. Everybody says he likes me, so i probably made him feel really sad. I feel terrible!

There is this guy, let's call him J, Okay, so J is a generally quiet person and he makes the effort to come and talk to me, though. He's just trying to get to know me, but i just kind of brushed him off. I listened and responded sometimes, but then a lot of the time, my mind isn't really focused on him. Now, he doesn't really talk to me anymore. He still smiles at me and he's being really respectable of my space, but I know i have to talk to him, or just at least let him know that i actually really like him as a person. I'm really shy myself and not known to be very open, but i feel like i have talk to him. I know i should talk to him, but i just can;t bring myself to do it. It's just too awkward for me. ANy tips on how to get myself out there and just talk to him. I know i'm making this so much more complicated than it needs to be, but i feel really bad about how ignorant i was to this guy.

A friend of mine sent this to me and it really opened my eyes, so i wanted to share it with all of you. A New Version of The Night Before Christmas 'Twas the night before Christmas And all through the town Not a sign of Baby Jesus Was anywhere to be found. The people were all busy With Christmas time chores Like decorating, and baking, And shopping in stores. No one sang "Away in a manger, No crib for a bed". Instead, they sang of Santa Dressed-up in bright red. Mama watched Martha Stewart, Papa drank beer from a tap. As hour upon hour The presents they'd wrap When what from the T.V. Did they suddenly hear? 'Cept an ad.. Which told Of a big sale at Sears. So away to the mall They all flew like a flash... Buying things on credit... And others with cash! And, as they made their way home From their trip to the mall, Did they think about Jesus? Oh, no... Not at all. Their lives were so busy With their Christmas time things No time to remember Christ Jesus, the King. There were presents to wrap And cookies to bake. How could they stop and remember Who died for their sake? To pray to the Savior... They had no time to stop. Because they needed more time To "Shop til they dropped!" On Wal-mart! On K-mart! On Target! On Penney's! On Hallmark! On Zales! A quick lunch at Denny's From the big stores downtown To the stores at the mall They would dash away, dash away, And visit them all! And up on the roof, There arose such a clatter As grandpa hung icicle lights Up on his brand new step ladder. He hung lights that would flash. He hung lights that would twirl. Yet, he never once prayed to Jesus... Light of the World. Christ's eyes... How they twinkle! Christ's Spirit... How merry! Christ's love... How enormous! All our burdens... He'll carry! So instead of being busy, Overworked, and uptight Let's put Christ back in Christmas and enjoy Some good nights! Merry Christmas, everybody and remember to keep Christ in Christmas!!!

I think you should just be yourself. Show him that you have something to offer him, that no one else does. You just have confidence in yourself.

What would you usually get your boyfriend or a guy friend for christmas?
