Centering our thoughts

I will center my thoughts on a Higher Power. I will surrender all to this power within me. I will become a soldier for this power, feeling the might of the spiritual army as it exists in my life today. I will allow a wave of spiritual union to connect me through my gratitude, obedience and discipline to this Higher Power. Let me allow this power to lead me through the orders of the day. May the steps I take today strengthen my words and deeds, may I know that the message I carry is mine to share, given freely by this power greater then myself.

Getting Well

Only through positive action can I remove the remains of guilt and shame brought on by alcohol. Throughout my misadventures when I drank, my friends would say, "why are you doing this? You're only hurting yourself." Little did I know how true were those words. Although I harmed others, some of my behavior caused grave wounds to my soul. By making a list of all the people that I have harmed, and become willing to make amends to them all, provides me with a way of forgiving myself. I alleviated much of the hidden damage when I make my list of those I have hurt. In making amends, I free myself of burdens, thus contributing to my healing.

2nd Saturday Art Walk in Sacramento

Here are a few picture of 2nd Saturday Art Walk in mid-town Sacramento California

The streets are alive with people eating, shopping, drinking and visiting galleries. A quick ten-block stroll might take you 30 minutes or more to complete because of the sheer mass of bodies on the streets.

People = Shit

Here we go again motherfucker!
Come on down and see the idiot right here.
Too fucked to beg and not afraid to care.
Whats the matter with calamity anyways?
Get the fuck out of my face.
Understand I can't feel anything
It isn't like I wanna sift through the decay.
I feel like a wound
And like I got a fucking gun against my head.
You live when I'm dead

Everybody hates me now, so fuck it
Blood's on my face and my hands, don't know why,
I'm not afraid to cry
but that's none of your business.
Whose life is it?
Get it?
See it?
Feel it?
Eat it?
Spin it around
so I can spit in his face.
I wanna leave without a trace.
Get out, I don't want to die in this place

People=Shit

It never stops!
You can't be everything to everyone.
Contagion, I'm sittin on the side of satan
What do you want from me?
They never told me the failure I was meant to be
Overdo it, don't tell me you blew it,
stop your bitchin'
and fight your way through it
I'm not like you
I just fucked up
c'mon mother fucker everybody has to die !!

People=Shit
