Finally

The country is against the war.

About time.

Congress talks of starting withdrawal on 1 October, with full withdrawal by 1 April of next year.

Not soon enough.

Bush is fighting against the country that voted him in...*cough*....who have one word that is causing him problems... I*R*A*Q.

It's not soon enough to keep my boy home..not soon enough to stop thousands from being shipped over, not soon enough to stop hundreds more from dying and thousands from being injured...

....but, it's a start.

I'll take it over the current idea of staying and fighting an occupational war, which is fighting a losing war.

quotes i love

"I, with a deeper instinct, choose a man who compels my strength, who makes enormous demands on me, who does not doubt my courage or my toughness, who does not believe me naive or innocent, who has the courage to treat me like a woman." (Anais Nin)
May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and everyone of us.
"Imperfection is beauty. Madness is genius, and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous, than absolutely boring."
Fear need not be a tool of realism. I think I'm going to work with it.
"...a season of love. it is only found in someone else's heart. right now, some one you know is looking for it, and it's in you."
"to accomplish great things, we must not only act, but, also dream; not only plan, but, also believe." ~anatole frace
"at night, when the objective world has slunk back into its cavern and left dreamers to their own, there come inspirations and capabilities impossible at any less magical and quiet hour. no one knows whether or not he is a writer unless he has tried writing at night." ~h.p. lovecraft
