| | Saturday, September 6th, 2003 1:16 pm - Right on... Saturday, May 10th, 2003 11:17 am - this plae has been quiet. so here [: ambitioushope what is this saddness that creeps toward me? it is moonrise, it is day break. I breathe, i exhale, i sigh, and do not sob. These sounds are mute and fall on these walls as tears on a child's face, scraped by pavment, raw. where is a mother, a soft voice, a nice smell. where is the light, the stars who fell to hit and create a cause of this crash. there is red peaking through from blue veigns onto white skin. this shade, this fog, we are sinking in. who is this. who you tell me. we name this world a battle scar, and move to concur, and move so farcurrent mood: a bit bruised (1 comment | comment on this) Wednesday, April 9th, 2003 8:57 am ambitioushope "Please understand my reasons for not speaking today. I am participating in the Day of Silence, a national movement protesting the silence faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people and their allies. My deliberate silence echoes that silence, which is caused by harassment, prejudice, and discrimination. I believe that ending the silence is the first step toward fighting these injustices. Think about the voices you are not hearing today. What are you going to do to end the silence?"

On the American Disease acromonkee The new economic, social and political cushion that has been created in the United States of America and to a lesser degree in other well off western nations has created an effect similar to that of the over use of anti biotics on bacterial populations. We are no longer preoccupied with filling our bellies, now our goals and desires grow further and further away from the subsistive lifestyle. The average American now aspires to own not only a TV, but a flat screen TV. We work outside of the home more than any other population in the world and we also have the highest number of cases of abnormal psychological and physiological diseases. This is what makes our industrial society more intriguing than the no longer viable idea of a society untouched by the industrial world.Reality TV is just another new and upcoming disease that seems to be spreading to epidemic proportions.current mood: sad (comment on this) | |
