So basically people are "occupying wall street" because they want the rich to give them some of their money. Instead of working hard for what they have, they are sitting and waiting......they want their cake and eat it too and lose weight from eating said cake. What the fuck is going on this world? Little ungrateful shits just want more instead of fucking working for anything. Nothing pisses me off more than someone trying to take money than make it......I hate this world right now........its no wonder that all the people that had a firm grip on reality were alcoholics or eventually insane.

Slowly but Surely

Today, I bought a pair of shoes for a child in Africa, saved 7.9 sq feet of the rain forrest, sponsored a child in another 3rd world country, donated to Brest Cancer Research, saved a small part of the coral reef, signed a petition to stop violence against women in large cities, protected an endangered wolf, and donated a bowl of rice to a child in Africa. Little tiny small steps, but steps nonetheless.

I am simply, purely, and insanely HAPPY!
Things in my life has been going all sorts of ways. A lot of them have been okay. Some....not so great. Then, I have the ones that make me so happy that I forget how to breathe. But, nonetheless, the happiest thing that I've found is that I can make myself happy. I don't have to depend on outside sources. I am perfectly content being by myself (Yet extremely happy that I don't have to be). I love it.

Sha-Kon-O-Hey. I take my home with me where ever I go

My home is not where I live. My home is where I am. I can imagine it and I am there. I am mostly in the mountains. I sometimes think that I'm a little sparrow. That I can just fly away. That I can just float up and look down on all my problems and tell them goodbye as I fly away. I used to take offense when folks would tell me that I "escape reality". Now, I marvel in it! I don't necessarily escape it, I just substitute in my own. My life is beautiful. The people in my life are beautiful!

Sounds of Nature

I can hear the rippling water falling gently
From the waterfall that I have found
From the meadow I hear meadowlarks a singing
Seems there's sounds of nature all around
I can hear the wind go whistling through the treetops
I hear raindrops falling softly to the ground
In the distance I can hear the roar of thunder
Seems there's sounds of nature all around
Sounds of nature fill the air with music
How I love and cherish every sound
I often kneel in prayer to thank the Master
For the sounds of nature all around
In a barren tree a lonesome dove is calling
For its mate that's nowhere to be found
In the garden I hear honeybees a humming
Sounds of nature fill the air with music
Seems there's sounds of nature all around

First Performance

Today was our first WV's sacred show. I have to say that it went amazing! The song that is our "signature" song, is called "Top Of My Lungs". I have the solo in that one (belted a high E at 10:30 in the morning. I was quite proud!). The more I listen to it and the more I sing it, the more I feel my heart opening. I couldn't help it but, during the climax of the song I just started raising my hand and jumping. I felt so free. Our last song of the set was "Stranger". Erica has that solo and I play bass. That too was amazing! There is a part where only the drums play and the singers sing. I just started singing the meoldy line like as loud as I possibley could. I got a couple looks like "what are you doing?", but I didn't care. I loved it! I can see God reaching out to me and me actually letting Him this time. I"m excited to see what else happens. It's not supposed to be an easy journey. If it were, everyone would do it. So, here I am, and I'm feel another chapter coming on.

I'll praise Your name. I'm not ashamed!

"The magic is inside you. There aint no crystal ball."

My name is Hannah. I am a determined and fun-loving person. I can also become sad and pathetic sometimes. I love God. I love to smoke. Yes, it's bad for me and I'll quit someday. I've come to the conclusion that some things that I have put deep thought into don't really require it and I should just go with the flow. Example 1. Why I drink? There is no real reason. I just do it. Yes, sometimes it can get out of hand, but then sometimes I have the best conversations of my life. I've thought that I hope one day that it wouldn't become a problem....I highly doubt it ever will be. I like to do, it doesn't consume my life. 2. Why I have such big dreams? Because I'm simply meant to. That's pretty much all. 3. Is there really a God? Yes, He is more real to me now, than He was when I felt like I was on top of the world. I can see why people can question that, but it doesn't make sense to look at outside influences for the answers. The answers really are inside of you. When you are looking for God, you can't trust outside sources because they are not you. We are all special and unique and we all have that ability to find ourselves. Just freakin' LOOK! How do I do anything. I have to want to or make myself. No one else can. They can try to influence me, but whether or not I give into that influence (good or bad) is my choice. What I'm basically saying is that we have the power to be amazing, but we have to see it in ourselves and honestly believe it. People can say how great we are until they are blue in the face, but it's up to us whether we believe it or not. Be your own person!!!!!! Just go with the flow!
