This is my year end blog. Instead of my usual witty (I hope) rant about the highs and lows of pop culture, I've decided to just say "thank you." Thank you to all of my friends, new and old, close and acquaintances, etc. Thank you to each and every one of you and for what you bring to my life. 2007 was a rough year for me on many levels. And those various levels made it a tough year emotionally. I would not have survived this year if it had not been for all of you. You help make me the man I am. You laugh with me, you laugh AT me (it's okay, I'm a dork), you comfort me, you sing to me, some of you sing FOR me, you appreciate me, you call me on my shit, you give me emotional support, you're there for me through and through. So, thank you for putting up with my "everything." For you, I dedicate one of my all-time favorite Alanis Morrissette songs to you. Remember in 2008, less drama, less gossip, more peace, more honesty, more love, light and laughter.
Happy New Year Friends
Everything
You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here
I can be an asshole of the grandest kind
I can withhold like it’s going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby and you’ve never met anyone
who is as negative as I am sometimes
I am the wisest person you've ever met.
I am the kindest soul with whom you've connected.
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen
And you've never met anyone
Who's as positive as I am sometimes.
I blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My passive-aggressiveness can be devastating
I'm terrified and mistrusting
And you’ve never met anyone as,
As closed down as I am sometimes.
What I resist, persists, and speaks louder than I know
What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I go
I'm the funniest person you've ever known.
I am the dullest person you've ever known.
I'm the most gorgeous person you've ever known
And you've never met anyone as, as everything as I am sometimes.
You see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can’t relate
And you’re still here
And you’re still here
And you're still here...
