Change Better Come 'Round Real Soon

"There are no boundries in the acting world, the actor themself sets it and for Hugh, there are no boundries"
-Personal Quote

Well Hugh Jackman is coming out with his newest production, Viva Laughlin for CBS viewers in October, yet people are already saying it sucks and writing it off their list. So what ever happened to 'Don't Write me Off Just Yet' because I personally believe that you shouldn't write something off until you've seen it. I'm known to do this myself to Daniel Craig, Tom Cruise, because I hate them. But I haven't watched their movies, I'm writing them off without seeing them because i don't like them and it's wrong. People and things deserve a chance before their kicked in the dust and booed at, so don't write Viva Laughlin, the singing musical/drama off just yet.

Change better come 'round real soon too because soon enough we'll be getting used to writing things off so damn fast and we'll only give old stuff a chance. If no one gave new actors a chance, all the actors in the industry would be old and no good movies would ever be produced, just remakes of movies based on the same ideas.

We were made to have change, to evolve. You want a revolution, well, you know, you better get used to change and giving things a chance because you'll never get anywhere in the world without it.

Give Viva Laughlin a Chance! Down with the critics!

An Insecure Quote from Bush

"Every nation in every region now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists. "
-George W. Bush (President)

Well, that's a big statement that can bite him in the butt because I'm not with him, I bet a whole lot of America isn't because his war cost lives, wasted lives over something called the Weapons of Mass Destruction that didn't exist. I'm not a terrorist though am I. I'll support the troops for them to come back safe and alive, but not the war itself to help Bush cause more trouble. That doesn't make me a terrorist. I'm an American, but I support little that Bush does, I'm not a terrorist. So Bush, you should have thought before you spoke, I'm not with your believers (that's 'us' in the quote) I'm so against you, but I'm not a terrorist.

Insecurity

On a less 'save the world' note, here's something I'd like to blog about today. It is the insecurity of this world, our world, the world that we share together. James Bradley once said in The Flags of Our Fathers movie, "I finally came to the conclusion that he maybe he was right maybe there are no such things as heroes maybe there are just people like my dad, I finally came to understand why they were so uncomfortable being called heroes. Heroes are something we create, something we need. It's a way for us to understand what is almost incomprehensible, how people could sacrifice so much for us, but for my dad and these men the risks they took, the wounds they suffered, they did that for their buddies, they may have fought for their country but they died for their friends. For the man in front for the man beside him, and if we wish to truly honor these men we should remember them the way they really were the way my dad remembered them. "

Yet there are no heroes, we ourselves create this heroes, (with the exception of superheroes because they're for entertainment) because we want to feel protected, feel like we're gonna be alright and that some guy or gal's gonna come along and save us. The End, we live 'happily ever after' and in all truth, that's not so. There isn't a Superman to come save us, no Wolverine to claw at our enemies, and certainly no Batman in Gotham City, but what we do have is hope, but not just that, a lot of things. Again with the positive attitude, hope, faith, and trust with yourself and others will lead to security. This world is full of insecurity.

George Bush reigned a war with no proof of Weapons of Mass Destruction, yet it made him feel secure because the soldiers would deal with it, not himself, he just made some of the calls. Yet his insecurity still will show, years after his term is over because that God for saken war still continues on and on. We are able to find insecurity almost everywhere because you can't run from it, but you can make it better. Insecurity is giving yourself a sense of false hope like a hero would save us, or George Bush reigning a war because it would make him feel better.

But being less secure than insecure, we can look to many famous people like Al Gore who believes that we can save this world from destruction and because he knows, not just hopes, but knows if we do work together, we can. You can look at the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. who knew black and whites could live together in peace and harmony. But as much as we can assure ourselves, insecurity will lurk behind every corner. Watch your actions because sometimes feeling safe when doing something that isn't exactly helpful to other could be costly.

Yes, this post doesn't entirely make sense, but the point is, we worry too much and have less and lass faith and trust in ourselves and others. We begin to lose that and there goes love, there goes honestly, and soon enough, there goes everything. Thanks for reading.

Fire, Let it Burn, and Don't Let it Die

My friend on a message boards (hughjackmanfan.com) happened to be reading some of my posts, I sort of blog there too, and said, "And you know what? The fire, that is burning within you - don't let it die. Because when the fire burns long enough and bright enough - it attracts a lof of good stuff."

It's quite true, not just quite, but to the bottom line, it will always be true, not just my fire but yours, ours, and when you find that fire, don't let it go out, don't let it die, because once you do, you're back to square one on inspiration or imagination, or whatever that good fire is burning. Positive fire attracts positive fire and once you become positive, everything will revolve around you and only you will decide where it goes. You can make it go away and be negative, the worst you can do, or you can let it burn, burn and burn forever until you reach the final stage in life, death.

And yet, some of us can't find the fire, can't find the inspiration, but you'll find it, you'll find it if you look hard enough and let everything inspire. Everything and everyone, good or bad, positive or nagative. Because in this world, this god for saken world, is all we have and we're the lost cause. The biggest lost cause known to man kind. If we can all find love, find the fire, and find that negative is the past, maybe we will truly find a better place to live.

Love

You know, "L is for the way you look at me" and yadda yadda ya. But it's more than that, it's a force, an eighth sense because we know when we love and when we don't. So why must we have love? Well, to save our world, to save us in general because our world, this time, our now, is filled with hatred that led to useless wars and wasted lives of men and women. We need to stop killing and blowing up things to take out our anger, our pain. Because the X-Men took a stand to keep mutants equal as human beings. We all deserve to live lengthy lives, we should steal, lie, hate, or anything else that's negative because it isn't right. Nothing is right at all at this place in time. The war in Iraq, the US stockmarket falling, the 2012 predictions of the world ending, drugs, and shootings left and right. I say this with much truth and when you are ready to face it, then listen and hear me out, our world is disasterous and we hare heading for a very sad and killing downfall if love, honesty, hope, and friendship can't prevail and exist over hate, anger, and pain. So the next time you steal, you do something like drugs, or lie, remember the negativity you add to this world, our world, the only world we know of at this moment. You only live once, we're not superhuman, but we can learn from what's fiction too. Stop to smell the roses, it won't hurt.

Life is a Highway

Life takes it unexpected turns, I can say that safely. Many things have come up that I've least expected, like my ex-Best Friend leaving me. Maybe that boy I like who asked me out in the sixth grade and winning tickets to the New York Mets' Opening Day. Indeed will I say I've also encountered unpleasant things like getting poked in the eye, or my bad luck with even numbers. You can't live life without ups and downs, good or bad, pros or cons. There aren't always nice people, good people, generous people, but there are many people, different and same alike, who fit our personalities correctly and some who don't exactly fit our profile as a friend. So on dirt, gravel, or cement, your highway is what you and yourself make it. Decisions, choices, whatever, you name it, reflect on where you're taken on your highway. One day here, the next day gone, savor everything until it's gone because it isn't or ain't always gonna or going to be there. I tell this to a lot of people, who take things for granted, time after time again, and they don't believe me sometimes and only agree when they learn the truth. So, be wise.

Gay Rights

Unfortunately, gays aren't given the same rights as female to male couples. Some might call these regualar couples, I call them hetrosexual couples, not regular, because there shouldn't be much of a difference. So love is the key, well, obviously, some people don't agree. You see, gays are 'different' and yet, they are the same. They love, like you and me, and they aren't any different. Love, a force, a power of nature, that somehow, can't be explained well like the meaning of life. So, I think, we should allow gays to have the same rights. Marriage is supposed to happy, joined couple that are bound till 'death do us part', or even beyond 'death do us part'. Yet, the government and closed minded people can't except the fact that letting gays marry would boost money sales in chapels, wedding places, and so on. Money would be booming for not many places allow gay marriage. Someone said that joining or partnership doesn't sound right. I agree, joining isn't half as meaningful as marriage. Nor is partnership, sounds like a legal term to do with business, not love, not passion, not anything that has to do with marriage. So if any of the 2008 candidates propse something good for gays, please, I beg, vote for them (as long as they don't plan on destroying our enviorment, that's another story). We are created equal, there are no such things as 'regular' couples or 'different' couples. We were meant to be equal, and we have yet a person, male or female, to be the Martin Luther King, Jr. of the Gays! For I have met, kind, and nice gay people. Homosexuals aren't aliens, they eat the same food, listen to the same music, live life as others do. So why should something like a man marrying a man scare us. It's evolution. There's a first for everything, and there are never lasts. So here the gays out, they deserve as much as us hetrosexuals. But not just gays, bisexuals too. We share this bouncing ball, what we call Earth, for it only lasts so long. Raging wars on each other is no use. Love, again, is the key says my friend and it truly is, if we could live in harmony.

Love

So I was just thinking after a discussion in a messageboard I post in often, and one of the topics was how do you describe love? I, myself, haven't been truly in love yet, but one person says, "Love is beautiful and necessary to be able to live in harmony! Let's hope that the world will be a better place because we have done our parts." Yes, it is beautiful. If we had enough of it, the world would be a much better place. No war in Iraq, nothing against other religions or sexual orientations, and of course, no arguement on things like our governments are doing. Yet, love is missing from some places and people. There is something missing from them that does not let them love like we should. Maybe there's a little something missing in all of us, but love is the key. Not money and wealth, health and cleansliness, not rightg or wrong. "If they could love, like you and me, imagine what, the world could be," Nickleback has a good point. And then maybe we'd see the true day, "When nobody died." And then we'd sing, "Amen, I'm, I'm alive." The key, is gone, missing, and can not be put back together for our world may be hopeless in some people's eyes, but if you can get one person to believe in love, then consider that you just helped the world be one person who you made love more. Stranger, friend, family, or whatever, spread the love, spread the word, love it the key. If you've done your part, then consider it one step closer to a better, more harmonic world.

Honesty

Honesty
by Billy Joel

If you search for tenderness it isn't hard to find.
You can have the love you need to live.
But if you look for truthfulness
You might just as well be blind.
It always seems to be so hard to give.

Honesty is such a lonely word.
Everyone is so untrue.
Honesty is hardly ever heard.
And mostly what I need from you.

I can always find someone to say they sympathize.
If I wear my heart out on my sleeve.
But I don't want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies.
All I want is someone to believe.

Honesty is such a lonely word.
Everyone is so untrue.
Honesty is hardly ever heard.
And mostly what I need from you.

I can find a lover.
I can find a friend.
I can have security until the bitter end.
Anyone can comfort me with promises again.
I know, I know.

When I'm deep inside of me don't be too concerned.
I won't as for nothin' while I'm gone.
But when I want sincerity tell me where else can I turn.
Because you're the one I depend upon.

Honesty is such a lonely word.
Everyone is so untrue.
Honesty is hardly ever heard.
And mostly what I need from you.

Seriously, honesty is needed from everyone. You know, I don't remember who said this in the Stephen King Book, but "The columnc of honesty has a hole in it." And I'll say, it's quite true. No one hasn't lied. Every lie slips through that hole. It's the impossible hole to patch because in our world, we lie...we lie for desperation, lie for love, lie to live. Lie because we think we need to when we don't. 'Lying digs a hole' my teacher once said. Lies may keep you away from harm every once in a while, but it'll come back and nip you in the bloody Goddamn ass if you use it too much. I mean it, that's why I cursed there. So ev'ry time you lie, just think about it, just ask yourself 'why did I just lie?' If it wasn't worth the trouble, then tell yourself how to fix it or make it better next time.

Honest is such a lonely word....

Lonely

There's always that lonlieness that lingers in our hearts whenever something or someone is missing. Right now, I'm in another country for a little while and after a week, I feel lonlieness slipping in even though there are seven other relatives in my house. When I said goodbyes to my friends, I felt like I was dettaching myself from them. Though, they do email me everyday, so it makes me feel less lonely, but maybe I feel lonely because of that fact that leaving on an 18 hour plane ride might mean I won't come back alive. I don't hover on that thought too long, but I know it could happen. I know that I might not comeback, so choose what you say wisely, I made my goodbyes sincere and their's were just as heartfelt. Since I am not old enough to write my will, I leave a note with my saliva and signature, dated, and the people to who my belongings go to. Unfortunately, it might not stand in the court of law because I am not yet 18, but hopefully a relative or one of my parents will just carry out the duty without using the court of law. I might be over racting, but one can never be too careful. But in any case, don't feel lonely, for your never alone. Anway, gotta go. Sorry it isn't very long or thoughtful.

The Death of a Superhero

Well, Captain America just went. Bought the comic and it was, you know, sad how he died. Won't tell ya much about it know. Actually happened a few months ago. Anyhow, we've seen superheroes die: Jean Grey (came back as Dark Phoenix of simply, Phoenix), Tony Stark (He came back as Iron Man), Professor X (actually suspectedly died multiple times, but comes back.". So my point is, Superheroes seem to be immortal. It's almost impossible. They die, turns out they weren't dead or some strange scientist pieced 'em back together to they could come back and save the world. Even Supervillians like Magneto. Prof. X supposedly killed him, but only brainwashed him and turned him back to civilization for him to be evil yet again. I don't know if it's a good thing to keep bringing them back, or a, "yeah, been there, done that," thing. Some superheroes are worth bringing back to life though. But behind deaths, there is truth. When the writer decided to kill Captain America, his son had just died and he wanted to give the world, our world, a taste of his pain because we love Captain America. The amazing man who had ties with The Avengers, Spiderman, Tony Stark or the Iron Man, and Wolverine. His red white and blue colors would not be forgotten with his adamantium shield. But in reality and in fiction, death is very real, so real it could only be a step away, a breathe, a thought. So, this post may be titled Death of a Superhero, but it's about much more now.

Death is something most of us fear. Yes, there are some of us who far differently. There are some of us who go crazy like Sarah Winchester after her husband's and chilren's deaths. Anyhow, it's very real. More than someone blowing up in a movie, or dying of cancer, but a power that will consume us at the end of life. We are lucky if we can pull out, these would be called near death situations. Then, 'go to the light' and heaven or hell awaits you. Depends on your sins, or it depends if you believe in them or not. Don't been to be too religious about this kind of stuff. Birth, life, death. That's the cycle.

Anyhow, some of us don't go quietly. If you don't believe in ghosts, don't go on. But ghosts, they are the apparations of people who do not have what they want to cross over. Maybe their baby's body was never found so they search for it, scaring the sox of the people they see. Or maybe they haven't had their revenge on their killer or rapist. But these are the souls, they are apparations, or marks of dead people who haven't crossed over. Maybe, they never will. But ghosts aren't all bad, aren't all here for something. Many a year ago, there was a schoolbus that was hit by a train near a hill. Some say, if you park on the train tacks (be careful the train isn't coming anytime soon. It might not be running wither) the spirits or ghosts of the children will push you off the tracks. They say if you put baby powder on the bumper of your car, handprints will be left. So good ghosts, bad ghosts.

So, as Stephen King might say, here me I beg, and one of you, if in a Stephen King book would shout, here her well, and then I'd tell ya this. For death is a part of life that no one quite understands like life itself. Like no one quite understands the mysteries of the world like Area 51, UFOs, ghosts, vampires, and werewolves. So death, just as sad as it seems, hasn't been thought of a lot, and that's because we're scared, scared to see that death might be a force of evil, claiming many lives. By the time you're done reading this, thousands are dead because a a lot of people die in only three seconds...even less. But that's why people are born faster than people die. So, mysterious ain't it. Here me, I beg.

Barry Bonds

He hit his 755th friggin' homerun the other day! I can't believe it. Clay Henlsey will either be the most hated or most repsected pitcher right now because of throwing that pitch Barry Bonds hit over the wall. With probably a dramatic point to the sky, I didn't bother to watch any Barry Bonds. The guy who caught it should burn it. But that's just opinion. Of course he's keeping it. If I had had it, I'd sell it on ebay for a lot of money. Rather money that a tarnished, steroid user's, tying record of homeruns...that cheater Barry Bonds. So, the world is full of cheaters and somehow they get passed and beat the system. When you teach your kids about cheating, use Barry Bonds and how he passed a record by using roids. Well, that's what I have for today. Thanks for reading!

Best Friends?

She said we'd be friends, to the happy or bitter end. Best friends forever turned to best friends for never. She chose me over a boy, he was known as tall n' ugly, sometimes fat n' chubby. We've been friends since kindergarten, maybe even preschool. Then when sixth grade came, my life fell apart as that boy walked in and they started to go out. She had a boyfriend, spent weekends with him, forgot about me and my other friend. Soon, we were abandoned, forgotten, whatever you'd call it and my 12th birthday came round, we fought there, it was terrible until eveyone left. I felt torn apart, almost like life wasn't worth living. She was the person I'd tell everything, from dark secrets to stupid jokes that no one would laugh at but her. So here I am years later and my part of my heart still lingers over our lost relationship. It's probably not healthy mentally that I still think of her, but this is something I just need to express every once in a while and I thought telling it to a couple strangers who bother to read some nobody's blog. Anway, I thought it over some years later too and figured that I'd need to let go, have I yet? Maybe, maybe not, the thought lingers everyonce in a while. But be careful who you choose as friends. If you choose the wrong ones, you'll end up heartbroken.

My First Entry

Well, here's my first entry. Guess I should just let you know about myself first. I'm a huge Hugh Jackman fan, own just about anything Hugh related that I can get my hands on. Also, X-Men, that's just a plus that he was Wolverine in the movie because I was a huge X-Men fan before. Baseball, nothing beats baseball except those things. Big Mets and Red Sox fan. These things just flow for me. But life, my life, life in general, whatever. This is why I created a blog, just to talk about life and things going on. Well, thanks for reading. Hope you'll follow along.
