For Mr. Max

Its 2:16 on a Friday night and I am sitting here listening to Maxwell - Playing Possum.

Men, I have got to say, this man knows how to make really good music. It makes me happy, it takes me to a different place, a little piece of my world. When I listen to his songs, its just me and Mr. Maxwell and we are in my world and nothing else matters.

hah hah.

I saw him once in concert and he was awe-some!

talent

How are some people so blessed with amazing talents? Ok lets face it, these days there are a lot of artists out there with little to no talent that basically get by on their looks. I won't mention names cuz i'm happy for them. I'm happy that they are able to make a living for themselves and sometimes even make good catchy tunes.

but,

those that have real talent...... i love it, i love it i do.

I love Mr. Max cuz he sings so deep. He sings beautiful poetry that gets you thinking. His poetry takes you to an emotional place. And even if you don't have anyone, when he sings about deep love, you are right there with him. You can feel that deep love....

well at least thats what happens to me when I'm with my buddy Max. And him and I can sit

and we can chill

and we can just live life thru his words....

sigh...

I wanted to write tonight, and i do feel like writing a lot but i didnt expect to get so into Maxwell till i put him on my ipod.

and i decided to listen to him cuz earlier in the day while I was in the kitchen doing my cooking and cleaning thing I was listening to him and he made me o so happy. Well music in general makes me happy but good music.... men, it takes me to that next level. And I like being there...

Well since its New Years.... well technically it is saturday morning so New Years day is done and over but I'll diverge a bit:

Resolutions, resolutions resolutions. Yeah they are cliche and all but important non the less. I love to make them and I love to write them down. I mean, the way I live my life, I set goals/resolutions for myself weekly. I guess its called taking it step by step. I find that by starting out each week by setting specific goals, my week goes very smoothly and I feel pretty accomplished in the end. It makes it easier than setting year goals. So.... here's how I do it. I have my general goals/resolutions for the year and then break it down each week. I reflect on it and make goals each week that will take me one step closer to the ultimate.

Cuz after all I'm working to become the best me I could possibly be.

I want to be a better sister, a better friend, a better daughter, a better significant other, a better Christian...

Fistful of Tears

Cuz I

I go insane

crazy sometimes

trying to keep u from loosing your mind

open your eyes

see whats in front of your face

save me my fistful of tears

you can make it disappear girl

all you gotta do is just

raise up

face up

stay up

all things will heal, we'll feel it with a kiss from the skies

dont u let it go

dont u let it go.

Basically, he makes me smile....

Fair

You love me so hard

I want to love like you do

cuz it's only fair

Just Like That

You see

you love me so hard

I can't

probably never will

understand it

but one thing I do know

is that I want to love

just like that

Love You

I can be anything you want me to be

I just wanna love you

Show u exactly what u mean to me

honey let me love you

Now, this song I have listened to about 8 times in a row now. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I love it not only because Max sings it so well, but those lyrics are so perfectly right. So simple and sweet. Its that innocent love where nothing else matters. I can be anything you want me to be, just let me love you. All you've got to do is let me and I'll take it from there. Its simple. And why does it make me smile? It makes me smile cuz I'm on the same page with him. I know what its like when nothing else matters.

And I end with a sigh

Sigh....
