Ok, so the lady in this is a smidgen on the weirdo side... But the other half of the video you really need to see... Enjoy

Found something today that applys to something thats going on in my life right now and thought that I would share it. Its very true, though certain parts may not apply to everyone and I didn't want to re-write it so they did, but the general basis of it is true. Enjoy. -Byrd

Somewhere [B e T w E e N]  the ...
procrastination..the homework..the friendships
& the nasty cafeteria food.
the calls to old friends..the I miss yous
& the I LOVE yous & the what are we doing tonights?
somewhere [B e T w e e N] all of the..
changing & growing
& the skipping classes..the studying for tests
& the pretending to be studying for tests,
& the downright not studying for tests...
I forgot..I forgot what it meant to cry ..
I forgot that pretending to be happy doesnt make you happy
I forgot that pretending to be smart doesnt make you smart
& that pretending to be ok doesnt make you ok
I forgot that you cant just forget the past
in fear of the future &
I forgot that you cant control falling in love
& that you cant make yourself fall in love
I learned ..
i learned that i can love ..
i learned that its OKAY to mess up ..
& that its OKAY to ask for help ..
& that its OKAY to feel like crap ..
i learned its okay to complain & whine to all of your friends for a whole day ..
that somehow they..ll make it all better
i learned that sometimes the things you want most you just CANT have ..
i learned the greatest thing about growing up..
isn..t gonna be who is the most popular or going to the most parties .. or the drinking.. not even the hook-ups.
its the friendships .. which means taking chances.
i learned that sometimes the things we
FORGiVE & FORGET are the things we most need to talk out ..
i learned that letters from friends are the most important thing ...
& that sending cards to your friends make you feel better.
but .. basically .. i learned that my friends .. both old and new .. are the most important people to me in the world ..

Hawaii... My new home... heh, well, its paradice alright, but its really not much different than home. Its really not as different as i thought it would be, and the sight of a big huge truck every other vehicle is, while you might think is a bit odd considering the small island and price of gas, is a sight for my sore eyes... I really miss my truck. I miss the hot rods, I miss my tools... But most of all I miss my friends. Very very few people around me know or are able to see that my friends are who I am. When your parents move you around for the larger part of your life and your blood is spread out all over the continent the only thing you have to keep you grounded is your friends. Mom did a fine job, the best she knew how to, but sometimes you gotta learn to cope on your own and whos there to pick you up when nothing else seems to go right, The people that know you for who you are to them and who you are to them at that moment in time and remember you for all the great things that you have done for them, not everything you have done in the past before them because they weren't there. thats who, your friends.

This military thing is great, don't get me wrong, I feel a certain home here a belonging-ness, but there is too big of a part of me that I signed away. Might just be the timing, and it probably is but I really can't wait to get back to the states. As I said, the military is great, it really is. I enjoy what I do, what I am doning it for and what I stand for while I am doing it. I'm paying my dues so that I can stand to be selfish with my life later on, because, let me tell you, I got some plans, BOY! do I got plans! And I can NOT wait to see them come to reality!

Life here is a ball at times and a rather large turd others. I think once I get a little more acquainted, settled in and get my wheels located and underneath me (thats a truck if your not following) things will get a heck of a lot better for me but its all this waiting thats really got me like this, guess boot gave me that little gift... come to think of it, I don't stand in lines anymore, if i can't find a way around them I useually don't get whatever is at the end of it... Guess my patience has grown rather thin, especially for things that I find unacceptable. Guess I have boot to thank for that too, though not nessesarily a bad thing per say. Maybe Hawaii will enject a little tranquility in me once I can actually get out and see some of the cool trails and waterfalls or even the beach and maybe even catch some fish! Did you know there is a lake out here in the middle of this island (close to me) that is known around the world for BASS finshing!?!? who the hell'd thunk that! haha, talk about a little slice of home. Only thing is... how the hell'd they get here?! Guess the same way the Byrds did... :)

Anyhoo... (haha, I love useing that word, reminds me of Becca every time cause we had an honest to God fight over it being a real word or not and how ignorant I was for useing it. So it became a hobby of sort to use it! oh, the little things in life. I am SO glad I got a girl now that supports me even if she thinks I'm retarded. Gotta love it! I Love You Heather!) Guess I better cut myself off, its 3am, ya'll are probably just about to get up seeing as its 8, 9 for some. Gotta love time zones! See ya!

As the title implies, this is just somethin I wrote a while back... it just seems to fit in alot of places right now...

No Tomorrow???

If you think about it, tomorrow never comes, because when tomorrow finally gets here, tomorrow, is today.

So if tomorrow is today than what is yesterday? Yesterday was today, yesterday and today was tomorrow, yesterday.

So if yesterday was today and tomorrow will be today will we ever get to tomorrow?

This hurts my head thinking about these things, yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

So I guess what I'm basically trying to tell you is that there is no tomorrow, or is there? I think I'll quit before today becomes tomorrow.

If there is a lesson to be learned from this mess called yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

It is "Live for Today, Plan for Tomorrow, and Never look back on Yesterday's sorrow".

I challenge you to ask yourself that question, if you answer no or if you can't because you are unsure then I challenge you to change that!

Too many people in the world go their entire day without cracking what could even be construed as a hint of a smile let alone something nice being done for them or said to them without something expected back from them and frankly that its really quite sad. Think about this, at least what would it take for someone to smile at you? A wink? A big yawn? A crazy sounding caugh or sneaze? A slight trip over your feet? Talking to your friends? A string-less complement? A cheesy pickup line? A funny face? or how bout just a simple smile at them first?

Now that you've read just the few that came to off the top of my head, ask yourself this question, why are there still people not smiling?!

Basic moral, take a minute out of your overly busy day and just smile at somone, it catches on... I promise. =)

I sat down tonight and started to write this big long blog on my feelings and what not and when I got to the end I thought to myself, this thing is bogus... so I deleted it... now, while some might get mad over that action I found that my whole writing can be summed up into this single little scentence:

Lots of people say that there are tons of fish in the sea, well I agree...

but there can only be one of you...

-Aaron

So yeah, names Aaron and i probably wont be on here much but ya never know... This could become my new pass time, doubtful but maybe...
