I'm a genious with a headache

the only fingers you point should be at the mirror.

tomorrow is 2007.i dont make resolutions, i make promises to my heart and i dont need some end of the year party ushered in with a hangover and smoke-filled hair to "start over". there are 364 other chances in the year to stop your shitty or counter-productive behavior so why choose today? you dont need a "resolution" or a new year to "begin again" because this world is full of people just WAITING to "begin again". its just as arbitrary as any other monday. if your year sucked its because you didnt make an effort to learn from your mistakes or from those who surround you.
they say the number one "resolution" is to lose weight. so do it.yeah, dr. phill isnt the one to stand by your side and give you the "you'll get em next time, tiger" speech. no, fuck you. if you didnt lose the weight you wanted to you're simply lazy. hands down. you tried but you didnt try hard or long enough. you gave in and gave up. the world is full of lazy people. are you one of them?stop eating crap, stop eating so much and start moving around. yeah weird, it actually works.
you want better friends because all they do is talk shit to you.what people and predominantly, kids dont understand is that friendship is a two way street and that YOU happen to be half of that shitty relationship. either you're enabling the abusive relationship or you're too much of a chickenshit to stand up to people and tell them that they are offending you. which one are you?if you maintain shitty friendships its because you yourself let it happen. if you have shitty friends its because you're a shitty person. its difficult to stand up for what you think is right, but whats more difficult...to tell someone who has a part of your heart that what they do or say is offending you and remove them out of your life or to sit back and take your place as a submissive and beaten dog as they continue to make you eat shit sandwiches? ultimately, you control the people you surround yourself with."i want to tell the world to 'fuck off,' just like you ricky."telling the world to 'fuck off' without knowing what you're standing up for or having direction is pointless and childish. people dont like inarticulate spoiled little brats, you simply come off as selfish and immature. the last two things that would evoke empathy or understanding. whats your battle plan? what do you have to gain by telling the world to 'fuck off'? is there a reason? once you've accomplished your goal of giving everyone you know the finger, then what? no one will care about your trite little middle finger rebellion unless you have an objective. every little thing your heart desires will involve some sort of compromise or sacrifice. school, friendships, money, careers...every last goal you strive for will involve some amount of suffering, how much you will tolerate will be up to you. you dont like to compromise? cool. good luck with your life. i hope you dont expect big things. "but i just want the world to accept me for me."yeah, well get in line. resolutions have a long history of failure. lifestyle changes do not.temporary solutions are just that, temporary. thats why most diets fail. because people dont see it as a permanent plan, we see it as a line in the sand that once we think we've crossed we can sit down and relax...but what most of us dont realize is that that line is always moving. it doesnt wait for you, us or anyone. the struggle of life is constantly running to cross that line and the irony of it all is that we will never cross it and the knowledge of that is the difference between the intelligent and the victims.so you can moan and bitch and complain and fall back with the boring and lazy who want nothing more than for you to keep them company or, with two middle fingers raised high you can smile and run as hard as you can because your character will be measured by the goals you strive for, the fight you give and the secret promises you've made to your heart.

2006 was the best year of my life. love/live/learn
