I know some of you may have some remarks about this but I kinda felt the need to post this..

The lyrics in this song have a huge significance to some events that have happened in recent past in my life and things that are currently happening...

You should hear the song itself...unreal....


"Got To Do It"

You gotta keep up
You gotta keep going...
No you never let down
You gotta keep going
You gotta keep up
You gotta keep going

I went around the place where we once went before
But I never knew it hurt so bad
I wandered back again, but you just slammed the door
I never knew it hurt so bad

We were nothing but kids on top
Never gonna stop
We never let down
We gotta keep up
Keep our heads on 'high'
Never gonna die
'Cos we gotta keep it alive

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
'Cos you can't get enough
You gotta do it
You never give up (NO!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you love (no more turning)

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
And you're covered in mud
You gotta do it
You still going on (YEAH!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you love

You gotta keep up
You gotta keep going...
No you never let down
You gotta keep going
We gotta keep up
We gotta keep going

But you left me down so many times and took me back
But I'll never turn around again
And now my life is back
I'm back on the track
And I'll never burn it down again, No

'Cos we were nothing but kids on top
Never gonna stop
We never let down
We gotta keep up
Keep our heads on 'high'
Never gonna die
'Cos we gotta keep it alive

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
'Cos you can't get enough
You gotta do it
You never give up (NO!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you love (no more turning)

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
And you're covered in mud
You gotta do it
You still going on (YEAH!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you love (no more turning)

When you're down on your luck
You gotta do it
'Cos you can't get enough (YEAH!)
You got to do it
You never give up (NO!)
You got to do it
Gotta do all the stuff that you... Love

we all go through tough times in our lives.. it's how you deal with them and what you learn from them that will show you who you are..

stick in there, things will eventually get better! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

 

I guess I shouldl fill you in a little on what I was getting at..

Back in Feb. in one weeks time I filed for bankruptcy,lost my 2002 Sunfire,and the woman I loved dumped me.

This song got me tru that...I would sometimeslisten to it 10...15 times in a row..somehow it just meade things seem better...

and now,on Monday they are supposed to be disconnecting my phone service and I dont have hardly a penny to my name right athis second.

Dont take me wrong,I have dont it to myself...no ones to blame but me...no whining or complaining here...more a little venting than anything...

I have the Cavalier up for sale and had a buyer for it.Then she suddenly changed her mind and the deal died.Was my last chance to haul my *** out of the little fire pit I built for myself.

Anyway,I know it will get better....it alwasys does....this is just one of those little speed bumps in life I have to deal with.

But,with music there...I can get thru anything....my music is the one refuge I truly have that I can escape to where no exsists but me and the dude/dudette singing/playing...

Anyway...enuff of of my profound thinking and so forth...

BTW....Thanks for the words of encouragement,Chris...'Preciated!! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

the quote i have on my door in my room as i leave is on the page from my FUBAR dvd.

" Just Give'R "

its a plan.

 

To you Hero.... [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]

I talked to the phone company today and they are giving me an extra 4 days to get the full amount paid.....just in time for payday!!

On a sad note though,I sold the Atari system I was going to put in the car...but hey...I made a little bit of a profit and get to keep my belly full.. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Talk to you all soon.....and thanks for the little bits of encouragement


Keep on Thumpin'!! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

 

Sorry to hear things are going rough for ya. But Chis B said it best. Things will get better, and when they you can look back on the hard times and realize what you conquered, it'll feel that much better. Just keep ya head up, and think positive. It could always be worse. Hope everything works out for ya. When times are tough for me, I find Jimmy Eat's World, In The Middle helps out.

 

Thanks for the note of encouragement,thunder!! [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Things are ok right now......

Like I said,the phone thing is all in order and hope(sort of) that the car sells soon...I figure if it doesnt sell in a couple weeks,I will say "ta hell with it!" and just keep it...What I will do with the Sunbird,I'm not sure...might sell it...

I got some guy coming over (no joke here) to look at buying a pile of my 8 tracks...I put an ad in the Bargin Finder and he is almost excited about this...so hopefully get some cash flowing here and get some bills caught up quick...

SIGH!!.....The price of wanting to compete!!HEHE

Anway,thanks again everyone for the little bits of encouragement....'Preciare it!!
