U2

U2 is my favorite band of all time. Every song of theres seems to have a meaning and personal connection for me. With or Without You is my favorite song they have written so far. Something about it just hits me ya know? It makes me want to cry when I hear it, no matter what I'm doing I just have to stop and listen. It's like an enchantment.
Walk On is also another really good one. Whenever I feel like I'm going to fall apart I listen to that and it gives me something extra that I need.
And love it's not the easy thing
The only baggage, that you can bring
Not the easy thing, the only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind
Thats so true isn't it? Baggage weighs us down and there are those things we truly can't leave behind no matter if we want to or not.
Then the part:
And you know it aches
And your heart, it breaks
You can only take so much
It seems like the hardest thing that we have to do is break our own hearts because there is no one else that you can blame besides yourself and you know its for the best but it doesn't stop from making it an excruciatingly painful experience. The worst...
I also particularly love Stuck In A Moment. But With or Without You is the most amazing.
She got me with nothing to win,
and nothing left to lose...........

life is

So it comes to my attention that although we have more freedom college is in effect a glorified high school. I mean think about it everything is fake. They tell us to be honest and feed us crap about community and being a good person and tell us its all about what we gain personally thorugh discovering ourselves and that grades don't matter. Hypocrites.
Grades do matter. Do everything you can to be better than the person next to you. Thats what it seems like. In the end it's creating their ideal world of what they want. Be reputable make good money and contribute the way we want you to. It's frustrating. The world isn't forgiving....and it is about the grades and the money. It does matter to so many people.
Money simply isn't that important.
So I feel.
Everything is more complicated than it needs to be. You just have to feel with your whole self. na? I mean Iit's like art. Extrememly therapeutic its like taking a piece of yourself, raw emotion, and making it into something tangible. Thats why any art that you see that makes you feel something is real. Its a part of you recognizing the emotion behind the art. It's likea piece that scares you, makes you happy just looking at it, or a piece that makes your heart break and ache just looking at it.
That's art.
