I am Legend (Not)

Star Rating

Went to the movie's last night, First bad choice for the year.

All I can say is I hope they had more fun making this movie then I had watching.

This theme has been done to death, and has been done so much better.
Could not warm to the character's, and I tried. .....Not even the dog. ....

Will Smith tried his best to make something out of nothing (script wise) . I think this would probably impress a young audience of about 12 years of age.

The character came closer to being "The last Man In the Theatre is all alone" and that would have had nothing to do with a virus. Sorry Will.

Why are people so unkind?

I sit in my lounge room and watch the news, I see the ugly side of man in all his forms. We are constantly bombarded with doom and gloom and violence everywhere.

Todays news is filled with the troubles in Pakistan, the ugly side. I never considered there was another side. Always a Country full of unrest. I never considered anything else. I guess that's probably just me OR NOT. The Media control us, the way we think and feel and most of us don't even realise it.

please take 4 min to view this video that was posted on youtube.
I for one never even considered the beautiful side of Pakistan.



THIS IS A VERY BRIEF TOUR OF SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACES IN PAKISTAN.

Stop Complaining.

The next time I am feeling sorry for myself I am going to think of this poor guy.
OMG.This is what they mean when they say there are worse things than death.

Song for January 2008

Thanks to my new best Friend :thegoodknife: who visited my site I stumbled across this amazing band "Danny Wilson" what a groove. Just love the song and the Band.



Mary's Prayer (Danny Wilson)

Everything is wonderful
Being here is heavenly
Every single day, she says
Everything is free

I used to be so careless
As if I couldn't care less
Did I have to make mistakes?
When I was Mary's prayer

Suddenly the heavens rolled
Suddenly the rain came down
Suddenly was washed away
The Mary that I knew

So when you find somebody who gives
Think of me and celebrate
I made such a big mistake
When I was Mary's Prayer

[Chorus:]
So if I say save me save me
Be the light in my eyes
And if I say ten Hail Mary's
Leave a light on heaven for me

Blessed is the one who shares
The power and your beauty,
Mary Blessed is the millionaire
Who shares your wedding day

So when you find somebody to give
Think of me and celebrate
I made such a big mistake
When I was Mary's Prayer

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

If you want the fruit to fall
You have to give the tree a shake
But if you shake the tree too hard,
The bough is gonna break

And if I can't reach the top of the tree
Mary you can hold me up there
What I wouldn't give to be
When I was Mary's prayer

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

Save me, save me
Be the light in my eyes
What I wouldn't give to be
When I was Mary's prayer

What I wouldn't give to be
When I was Mary's prayer
What I wouldn't give to be (save me)
When I was Mary's prayer

Stop and Smell the Roses

Another year has come and gone. Its time I took a good look at where I am in my life's journey. Hmmm. Well that did not take long...

Will I join the millions and make yet again another "New Year resolution" just to forget what it was I had resolved to change.
I think this year I will just stop and smell the roses. If I do that, I believe everything will improve on it's on accord. Tolerance,Patients,Less stress. good start I think.

Life goes past so quickly, this year I want to savour every second, LIVE IN THE MOMENT, sounds easy, I hope it is. You see I am a control freak and I think I have to be 10 steps ahead and so I am never able to enjoy the present. So it wont be easy.

So yes! New Years Resolution "LIVE IN THE MOMENT'

If you have a New Years Resolution I would love to hear what it is.

There's NO! Bingo Here!

Gambling is killing our Society,
The lure of easy money reaches out it's tentacles and touches all of us in one way or another.

It has the power to destroy the life of the gambler and everyone who knows them. Yet our Governments sit back and rake in the taxes generated by this misery.Gambling establishments boast of how much they are doing to support sporting communities with the profits made, (how nice).

Casinoes, and clubs continually send out invitations to lure you back, with the offer of "happy hour" hoping you will be temtped by the flashing coloured lights to drop just one more coin into the machine before you leave. Even placing ATM machines on the premises so you can not only empty your wallett but your bank account as well.

Do you believe it's the fault of the individual, after all they should know when to stop and go home. Or are we all to blame in someway.

Every day we are enticed to participate in one form of gambling or another with the promise of anything from a new car to a holiday it only takes the cost of 1 phone call, and you could be the lucky winner. For Pete's sake even church group's want you to participate. Just a bit of fun, fundraising. Bingo any one...?

Many are strong and can resist this temptation but there are twice as many that are not. They keep dreaming that the next ticket, the next coin will bring a windfall and everything will be perfect.

What can we do about it? Do we put our head's in the sand and just not think about it until it touches someone close to us.? Well?

I refuse to enter another gambling establishment,
I refuse to enter a lottery.
If we ALL did this maybe these pits of despair would shut down....

What is the dream world of the compulsive gambler?

Courtesy of GA

This is another common characteristic of compulsive gamblers. A lot of time is spent creating images of the great and wonderful things they are going to do as soon as they make the big win. They often see themselves as quite philanthropic and charming people. They may dream of providing families and friends with new cars, mink coats and other luxuries. Compulsive gamblers picture themselves leading a pleasant and gracious life, made possible by the huge sums of money they will accrue from their "system". Servants, penthouses, nice clothes, charming friends, yachts and world tours are a few of the wonderful things that are just around the corner after a big win is finally made.
Pathetically, however, there never seems to be a win big enough to make even the smallest dream come true. When compulsive gamblers succeed, they gamble to dream still greater dreams. When failing, they gamble in reckless desperation and the depths of their misery are fathomless as their dream world comes crashing down.
Sadly, they will struggle back, dream more dreams and of course suffer more misery. No one can convince them that their great schemes will not someday come true. They believe they will. For without this dream world, life for them would not be tolerable.

Here I am GOD!

God can you see me, Here I am. .
